Protein Quantification in the clinical laboratory. Challenges and opportunities for improved assays with LC/MS.
Although LC/MS has been successfully used and widely adopted for many small molecule clinical assays, the technique has yet to make a big impact for peptide and protein quantitation applications in the clinical laboratory. With increasingly sensitive instruments and robust micro fluidic inlet devices combined with efficient and standardised sample pre-treatment protocols LC/MS may now be ready for routine protein applications. Challenges and opportunities for LC/MS in protein and peptide biomarker assays and therapeutic drug monitoring of monoclonal antibody (mAb) drugs will be presented.
