Fabry Disease (Fabry's Disease) 03/27/2002 - "The concentration of globotriaosylceramide (ceramide trihexoside (CTH)) in the plasma of patients with Fabry disease has been determined quantitatively by tandem mass spectrometry (MS) using novel internal standards, [D4]C-16 CTH and C-17 CTH, which were synthesised enzymically from lyso-CTH using the reverse reaction of sphingolipid ceramide N-deacylase.
