3-HYDROXYOCTANOIC ACID (cas 14292-27-4)uria: Identification of a new organic acid in the urine of a patient with non-ketotic hypoglycemia

Add time:07/18/2019    Source:sciencedirect.com

A four-month-old child with non-ketotic hypoglycemia and rapidly progressive cirrhosis excreted in her urine large amounts of two unidentified organic acids in addition to a spectrum of saturated, unsaturated, and 3-hydroxy dicarboxylic acids in her urine. Gas chromatographymass spectrometry of the trimethylsilyl derivative of one of the unknown compounds suggested the structure of 3-hydroxyoctanoic acid, which was confirmed by similar analysis of the authentic compound. The same organic acid was found in the child's plasma. The significance of 3-hydroxyoctanoic aciduria as a possible marker for a primary defect of 3-hydroxy fatty acid metabolism is discussed.
