The optimization of the method of extraction of seven compounds from among BAs and their precursors from urine samples.
Dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME) has been chosen for its high efficiency of isolation and clean-up of biological matrix.
α-cyclodextrin-modified micellar electrokinetic chromatography has been applied for quantification of the analyzed compounds.
The DLLME-MEKC-UV method for BAs analysis could be successfully applied in clinical practice to confirm the diagnosis of neuroendocrine tumors.
