Immuno-MALDI-TOF-MS in the Clinic [PDF]
Clinical Chemistry, 2018 There is an ever-increasing need for robust and cost-effective methods that allow researchers and clinicians to detect molecular signatures of disease from patient samples, such as biofluids or biopsies. Traditional methods for measuring protein concentrations often lack specificity, precision, throughput, or robustness.

Quantitative whole-cell MALDI-TOF MS fingerprints distinguishes human monocyte sub-populations activated by distinct microbial ligands [PDF]
, 2015 Conventionally, human monocyte sub-populations are classified according to surface marker expression into classical (CD14(++)CD16(-)), intermediate (CD14(++)CD16(+)) and non-classical (CD14(+)CD16(++)) lineages. The involvement of non-classical monocytes,
