Monosaccharide-conjugated cholesterol metabolites were signalled by a precursor ion scan of m\/z 113. Although precursor ion scan of m\/z 74 and 124 was effective for finding glycine- and taurine-conjugated metabolites, high intensity of product ions ( m\/z 74 and 124) disturbed measurement of other multiply conjugated metabolites. The urine samples contained many conjugated cholesterol metabolites, and there were several disease-specific intense peaks. We found several unknown intense peaks with three known peaks in urine of the Niemann\u2013Pick type C patient. In the patient with 3\u03b2-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase deficiency, intense peaks that were tentatively identified as 5-cholenoic acid sulphates and their glycine and taurine conjugates were present.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The method should lead to the
