Title
Fast and Simple Creatinine Determination in Wastewater by Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry
Description
A fast and simple method was developed to determine creatinine in wastewater samples with high sensitivity (LOQ 0.01 μg/mL) and specificity (2 MRM transitions per analyte). The developed method could be applied to urine samples (dilution cut-off 20 mg/dL) as well. Creatinine was detected in all authentic wastewater samples with concentrations from...

A fast and simple method was developed to determine creatinine in wastewater samples with high sensitivity (LOQ 0.01 μg/mL) and specificity (2 MRM transitions per analyte). The developed method could be applied to urine samples (dilution cut-off 20 mg/dL) as well. Creatinine was detected in all authentic wastewater samples with concentrations from 0.22 to 2.68 μg/mL, and it should be further investigated as a normalization factor in wastewater analysis.
