Methionine (Met) is a key metabolite used in the newborn screening of homocystinuria by tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS). Recently, a loss of ion counts in both Met and its deuterium-labeled internal standard ((2)H(3)-Met) was observed by the CDC's Newborn Screening Quality Assurance Program laboratory. We report on the stability of labeled and unlabeled Met solutions and their storage in two types of 96 well microtiter plates to illustrate the potential loss of Met following storage of samples prior to MS/MS analysis.
