Sample PreparationA 500 ng/mL standard was prepared in urine. A 50 μL aliquot was mixed with 10 μL of internal standard (20 μg/mL EtG-d5 and 5 μg/mL EtS-d5 in water) and 150 µL of acetonitrile by vortexing at 3000 rpm for 10 seconds and centrifuged at 4300 rpm for 10 minutes at 10 °C. After centrifugation, 100 µL of the supernatant was diluted with 900 µL (40x dilution) of 0.01% formic acid in water. The sample was then vortexed at 3000 rpm for 10 seconds and injected for LC-MS/MS analysis.
