Angiotensin and kinin metabolic pathways are reported to be altered by many diseases, including COVID-19. Monitoring levels of these peptide metabolites is important for understanding mechanisms of disease processes. In this paper, we report dimethyl labeling of amines in peptides by addition of formal-dehyde to samples and deutero-formaldehyde to internal standards to generate nearly identical isotopic standards with 4 m/z units larger per amine group than the corresponding analyte. We apply this approach to rapid, multiplexed, absolute LC-MS/MS quantitation of renin angiotensin system (RAS) and kallikrein-kinin system (KKS) peptides in human blood serum. Limits of detection (LODs) were obtained in the low pg mL−1 range with 3 orders of magnitude dynamic ranges, appropriate for determinations of normal and elevated levels of the target peptides in blood serum and plasma. Accuracy is within ±15% at concentrations above the limit of quantitation, as validated by spike-recovery in serum samples. Applicability was demonstrated by measuring RAS and KKS peptides in serum from COVID-19 patients, but is extendable to any class of peptides or other small molecules bearing reactive –NH2 groups.
