Quantitation of melatonin and n-acetylserotonin in human plasma by nanoflow LC-MS/MS and electrospray LC-MS/MS

Melatonin (MEL) and its chemical precursor N‐acetylserotonin (NAS) are believed to be potential biomarkers for sleep‐related disorders. Measurement of these compounds, however, has proven to be difficult due to their low circulating levels, especially that of NAS. Few methods offer the sensitivity,...
