Practical quantitative biomedical applications of MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry.
Matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOFMS) is used to obtain fast and accurate determinations of molecular mass, but quantitative determinations are generally made by other techniques. In this study we illustrate the practical utility of automated MALDI-TOFMS as a tool for quantifying a diverse array of biomolecules covering an extensive molecular...
متن کاملQuantitative assay of urinary hepcidin using MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry
Hepcidin has been identified as the principle regulatory hormone essential for iron homeostasis. Quantitative analysis of hepcidin in bodily fluids provides an insight into the pathogenesis of disorders of iron metabolism such as hereditary hemochromatosis and anemia of chronic disease. This study describes the use of solid phase extraction (SPE) as a preparative step followed by matrix assiste...
متن کاملMALDI-TOF mass spectrometry: transformative proteomics for clinical microbiology.
Clinical microbiology laboratories today operate with the use of a blend of highand low-technology procedures. Despite huge steps forward in diagnostic methods based on nucleic acid amplification, clinical microbiology laboratories still rely heavily on culturing bacteria and fungi for diagnostic purposes. This process is typically done on solid (e.g., blood agar) and occasionally in liquid (i....
متن کاملApplication of MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry in clinical diagnostic microbiology.
Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) has recently emerged as a powerful technique for identification of microorganisms, changing the workflow of well-established laboratories so that its impact on microbiological diagnostics has been unparalleled. In comparison with conventional identification methods that rely on biochemical tests and requ...
متن کاملImmuno-MALDI-TOF MS: new perspectives for clinical applications of mass spectrometry.
The discovery of novel biomarkers by means of advanced detection tools based on proteomic analysis technologies necessitates the development of improved diagnostic methods for application in clinical routine. On the basis of three different application examples, this review presents the limitations of conventional routine diagnostic assays and illustrates the advantages of immunoaffinity enrich...
