Measurement of MMP-7 in micro-volume peripheral blood: development of dried blood spot approach
PurposeSerum matrix metalloproteinase-7 (MMP-7) is significant in differentiating biliary atresia (BA). This study aims to develop a new peripheral blood quantitative collection device to detect MMP-7 levels via dried blood spot (DBS).MethodsThis is a ...

Assessment of the effects of storage temperature on fatty acid analysis using dried blood spot cards from managed southern white rhinoceroses (Ceratotherium simum simum): implications for field collection and nutritional care [PDF]
Background Southern white rhinoceroses (Ceratotherium simum simum) are an endangered species in decline due to poaching and negative habitat changes. Conservation of the species has become increasingly important and a focus on better human management has

Dried Blood Spot Test Estimation of Urea [PDF]
The analysis of urea in serum and whole blood samples dried onto filter paper has been investigated. In both cases the sample volume is not critical nor is the volume of sample applied to the filter paper if sample discs of consistent dimensions can be punched from the dried paper.

Measurement of gonadotropins in dried blood spots
Abstract We describe direct immunofluorometric assays for luteinizing hormone (hLH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (hFSH) in fingerstick blood spots dried on filter paper, based on modifications of commercially available kits. Determinations are made from 2.5-mm-diameter discs (3 microL of dried blood) punched out from blood spot ...

Sorbent-less dried blood spot microsampling
Dried blood spots (DBSs) are typically sampled on porous sorbents, which may retain analytes in their structure during DBS rehydration but also release various species into the eluates and contaminate them.

Detection of Cotinine in Newborn Dried Blood Spots [PDF]
AbstractMaternal smoking while pregnant is a plausible risk factor for childhood cancers because many seem to initiate in utero and tobacco-specific carcinogens cross the placenta. Social desirability bias may affect maternal report of smoking in case-control studies and could explain inconsistently observed associations with offspring cancer ...

Effects of Dried Blood Spot Storage on Lipidomic Analysis
During the lipidomic analysis of red blood cell membranes, the distribution and percentage ratios of the fatty acids are measured. Since fatty acids are the key constituents of cell membranes, by evaluating their quantities it possible to understand the ...
