During the last years the beverages denominating “energy drinks” have gained popularity between students, athletes and active persons, due to the attribution of energy-giving properties. The usual composition of these drinks is based on water-soluble vitamins, carbohydrates, caffeine and taurine. In this work we present a sensible, rapid and robust UHPLC-MS/MS method for analyzing taurine, glucuronolactone and glucuronic acid in energy drinks. The validated method was applied to the analysis of various commercial energy drinks.

Abstract
During the last years the beverages denominating “energy drinks” have gained popularity between students, athletes and active persons, due to the attribution of energy-giving properties. The usual composition of these drinks is based on water-soluble vitamins, carbohydrates, caffeine and taurine. In this work we present a sensible, rapid and robust UHPLC-MS/MS method for analyzing taurine, glucuronolactone and glucuronic acid in energy drinks. The validated method was applied to the analysis of various commercial energy drinks.File in questo prodotto:
