Abstract: |
Vitamins, minerals, and trace elements, although present in the human body at very low concentrations, exhibit a multitude of important bioactivities essential for human metabolism and the normal functioning of bodily systems. They accomplish this through their roles in the structuring of macromolecules, acting as coenzymes or cofactors in metabolic enzymatic reactions, participating in enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidant systems, and through their hormonal actions. These biomolecules are chemically diverse, resulting in a corresponding heterogeneity in their analytical methods. This chapter presents the primary analytical techniques for the most important vitamins, minerals, and trace elements, with a focus on methods used for analyzing biological samples. Additionally, it provides a brief overview of metallomic analysis, which allows for the simultaneous analysis of many trace metals and metalloproteins.
