Parallel to the development of mass spectrometric instrumentation and methodologies, the improvements of separation techniques, such as gas chromatography (GC), high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and capillary electrophoresis (CE), and of their coupling with MS allowed the study of complex mixtures, that are generally encountered in most studies.

Identification and quantification of natural dyes need high performance analytical techniques, appropriate for the analysis of materials of complicated matrices containing a small amount of coloured substances. This requirement perfectly fits coupling of modern separation modules (usually high performance liquid chromatography in reversed phase mode, RPLC, but also capillary electrophoresis, CE) with selective detection units (mainly mass spectrometer).

Triethanolamine can be determined in metalworking and cutting fluids by gas chromatography-mass selective detection of silylated derivatives, by isotachophoresis, by capillary zone electrophoresis with indirect ultraviolet detection, and by spectrophotometry (Kenyon et al, 1993 Fernando, 1995 Schubert et al, 1996 Sollenberg, 1997) and in cosmetics and pharmaceuticals by ion-exclusion chromatography and by reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (Fukui et al, 1992 Maurer etal, 1996). 

Because of these ever-widening interests, the measurement of plasma tHcy is undertaken in many clinical chemistry and routine laboratories. Various methods are employed, including high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) assays, conventional amino acid analysis, capillary electrophoresis, gas chromatography with or without mass spectrometry, liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry, and in many routine clinical chemistry laboratories immunoassays. In this chapter, those methods that are often available in laboratories involved in the investigation of inborn errors of metabolism are described, namely HPLC and tandem mass spectrometry.

Steuer et al. compared supercritical fluid chromatography with capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) for its application in pharmaceutical analysis [24]. Efficiency, performance, sensitivity, optimization, sample preparation, ease of method development, technical capabilities, and orthogonality of the information were the parameters studied. They concluded that SFC is ideal for moderately polar compounds, such as excipients, for which mass detection is required.
