A new HPLC method to determine malondialdehyde (MDA) was developed. Malondialdehyde was reacted with alpha-N-benzoyl-L-arginine ethyl ester and converted into alpha-N-benzoyl-delta-N-(2-pyrimidinyl)-L-ornithine ethyl ester, which is sufficiently hydrophobic to allow us its specific determination utilizing a reversed-phase C18 column at the level of 1 pmol.
