Validity of Estimation of Haemoglobin Content in Dried Blood Spot Samples

Measurement and Comparison of Organic Compound Concentrations in Plasma, Whole Blood, and Dried Blood Spot Samples

The preferred sampling medium for measuring human exposures of persistent organic compounds (POPs) is blood, and relevant sample types include whole blood, plasma, and dried blood spots (DBS). Because information regarding the performance and comparability of measurements across these sample types is limited, it is difficult to compare across studies. This study evaluates the performance of POP...

Reuse of filter plates for elution of dried blood spot samples in neonatal assays.

Millipore MultiScreenTM filter plates are used for elution of dried blood spot samples in neonatal screening assays. A significant concern with the use of these plates is their cost. In this study we have evaluated the practice of reusing the filter plates in the Bio-Rad PKU and total galactose neonatal assays. All wells of the test plates used in the recovery study above were washed for a fift...

The Use of Dried Blood Spot Samples in Screening Drugs of Abuse

The present article will provide an overview of use of dried blood sampling method for analysis of drug of abuse. Relatively short half life and instability in blood, calls for alternative sampling method for determination of drugs of abuse. Dried blood spot (DBS) method has many advantages over the conventional sampling methods. The available method for DBS sample collection, storage and trans...
