Book Sample Preparation in LC MS Bioanalysis

Download or read book Sample Preparation in LC MS Bioanalysis written by Wenkui Li and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2019-03-12 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Revised and Expanded Handbook Provides Comprehensive Introduction and Complete Instruction for Sample Preparation in Vital Category of Bioanalysis Following in the footsteps of the previously published Handbook of LC-MS Bioanalysis, this book is a thorough and timely guide to all important sample preparation techniques used for quantitative Liquid Chromatography–Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS) bioanalysis of small and large molecules. LC-MS bioanalysis is a key element of pharmaceutical research and development, post-approval therapeutic drug monitoring, and many other studies used in human healthcare. While advances are continually being made in key aspects of LC-MS bioanalysis such as sensitivity and throughput, the value of research/study mentioned above is still heavily dependent on the availability of high-quality data, for which sample preparation plays the critical role. Thus, this text provides researchers in industry, academia, and regulatory agencies with detailed sample preparation techniques and step-by-step protocols on proper extraction of various analyte(s) of interest from biological samples for LC-MS quantification, in accordance with current health authority regulations and industry best practices. The three sections of the book with a total of 26 chapters cover topics that include: Current basic sample preparation techniques (e.g., protein precipitation, liquid-liquid extraction, solid-phase extraction, salting-out assisted liquid-liquid extraction, ultracentrifugation and ultrafiltration, microsampling, sample extraction via electromembranes) Sample preparation techniques for uncommon biological matrices (e.g., tissues, hair, skin, nails, bones, mononuclear cells, cerebrospinal fluid, aqueous humor) Crucial aspects of LC-MS bioanalytical method development (e.g., pre-analytical considerations, derivation strategies, stability, non-specific binding) in addition to sample preparation techniques for challenging molecules (e.g., lipids, peptides, proteins, oligonucleotides, antibody-drug conjugates) Sample Preparation in LC-MS Bioanalysis will prove a practical and highly valuable addition to the reference shelves of scientists and related professionals in a variety of fields, including pharmaceutical and biomedical research, mass spectrometry, and analytical chemistry, as well as practitioners in clinical pharmacology, toxicology, and therapeutic drug monitoring.

Book Dna Aptamers for Bioanalytical Applications

Download or read book Dna Aptamers for Bioanalytical Applications written by Jennifer Anne Martin and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One aptamer displayed a dose-dependent reduction of the clotting time in buffer, with a 20 ... M aptamer concentration achieving a nearly complete antidote effect. A DNA microarray was used to truncate two of the aptamers to decrease the cost of aptamer synthesis for medical applications. The second group of experiments tested a simple aptamer-based square capillary cell affinity chromatography system for selective capture of target cancer cells from a flowing suspension. Aptamers were immobilized on the inner surface of the capillary through biotin-avidin chemistry, the extent of which was controlled by adjusting the aptamer concentration. The device captured target leukemia cells in higher amounts than nontarget cells under a variety of conditions, and the capture efficiency was optimized to retain>90% of cells. In addition, the system was used to capture two colon cancer cell lines by their respective aptamers at high efficiency. The capillary system could also detect stained cancer cells spiked in blood by imaging the length of the tubing and counting the fluorescent captured cells.
