Quantitative 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 کاملPractical 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 کاملCharacterisation of phosvitin phosphopeptides using MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry.
Putative phosphopeptides produced from enzyme hydrolysis of phosvitin were identified and characterised using MALDI-TOF/MS. Phosvitin was heat-pretreated and then hydrolysed using pepsin, thermolysin, and trypsin at their optimal pH and temperature conditions with or without partial dephosphorylation. Pepsin and thermolysin were not effective in producing phosphopeptides, but trypsin hydrolysis...
متن کاملCharacterization of Yersinia using MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry and chemometrics.
Yersinia are Gram-negative, rod-shaped facultative anaerobes, and some of them, Yersinia enterocolitica, Yersinia pseudotuberculosis, and Yersinia pestis, are pathogenic in humans. Rapid and accurate identification of Yersinia strains is essential for appropriate therapeutic management and timely intervention for infection control. In the past decade matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization ...
متن کاملFish authentication by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry.
Recent EU directives and regulations for quality control and authentication of food products have prompted the development of new methods for large-scale tests to ensure the protection of consumers. In view of this, an innovative method based on MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry has been developed and successfully applied to fish authentication. Highly specific mass spectrometric profiles from 25 dif...
