2-NBDG and TMRE are chemically compatible. Solutions containing single-component or combined 2-NBDG and TMRE solutions with an internal standard (Hs10) were analyzed by LC-MS for possible chemical cross-reactivity. (a) Extracted ion chromatograms (EIC) showing 2-NBDG as a mixture of alpha- and beta-anomers, TMRE as a mixture of methyl and ethyl esters, and Hs10 as a single peak. Chromatographic features from combined solutions (2-NBDG + TMRE) and single-component solutions (2-NBDG or TMRE alone) were maintained. (b) The areas under the curves (AUC) for 2-NBDG (AUC2-NBDG), TMRE (AUCTMRE), and Hs10 (AUCStd) were computed from summation of EI peak integrations related to each compound. Results are shown as the ratio of AUCTMRE or AUC2-NBDG normalized to AUCStd.
