ABSTRACT:
A method is provided for detecting and quantitating a DNA base modification in a sample of DNA, wherein the method involves an endonuclease digestion step, a labeling step, and a chromatographic separation step. Utilized in the method are compositions including a carrier for the DNA base modification, an internal standard, and a carrier for the internal standard. Also provided are methods for synthesizing the compositions, and kits containing the compositions.
