    Amino Acids (AA) analysis is of great importance in many areas of biochemical, pharmaceutical and clinical research. Currently, there are evidences that the supplementation of foods with specific AA influence appetite and energy intake especially with arginine (L-arg). The aim of this study is to develop and validate a method for absolute quantitation of AA in human plasma incorporating a triple-TOF (AB Sciex 5600+) platform and the aTRAQ labeling protocol as well as to demonstrate their effective compatibility. aTRAQ reagents consists of a reporter and a reactive tag that couples with the primary or secondary amine group of each AA. Ion-pair chromatography (IPC) with HFBA as ion-pair reagent was used for the separation of AA while

    SWATH scan type, in positive ESI mode was employed for MS acquisition. The method was validated according to EMEA. Moreover, the newly developed method was applied in plasma samples obtained from a 12-week, two-arm parallel dietary intervention in which overweight volunteers consumed a wheat biscuit enriched with L-arg or a conventional wheat biscuitOverall, with the new method 45 AA were accurately quantified in human plasma while it was possible to monitor the L-arg plasma levels between (or in the two?) groups.
