Dried blood spot analysis in antidoping: Technical challenges, analytical advances, and future perspectives

Bulletin of the Korean Chemical Society, EarlyView.
Dried blood spot (DBS) analysis enables minimally invasive blood collection with strong analyte stability and simplified logistics, supporting anti‐doping applications beyond traditional matrices. Recent advances address hematocrit, volume variability, and matrix effects while expanding coverage to steroid esters, World Anti‐Doping Agency‐listed ...

Validation of a stall‐side immunoglobulin assay for use in equine reproductive management

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Equine foals receive IgG from mare colostrum through passive transfer. Failure of passive transfer (FPT) is a significant risk to the foal's life, leaving them vulnerable to infection and sepsis. Radial Immunodiffusion (RID) and immunoturbidimetric assays quantify IgG present in a foal sample but require a laboratory to complete ...

Tumor‐educated platelets in cancer diagnostics and prognostics: A critical appraisal and roadmap for clinical translation

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Abstract Tumor‐educated platelets (TEPs) are emerging as a compelling frontier in liquid biopsy, functioning as dynamic, systemic sensors that sequester and process tumor‐derived biomolecules. This interaction imprints an integrated molecular signature of malignancy—spanning the transcriptome, proteome, lipidome, and crucially, the captured genome ...

The results of a close follow-up of trainees to gain a good blood collection practice [PDF]

Journal of Medical Biochemistry, 2020
Background: Phlebotomy is one of the most important steps in the preanalytical phase of a clinical laboratory process. In order to decrease phlebotomy errors, this specific procedure should be taught in detail by laboratory organizations.

Microfluidic flow chambers using reconstituted blood to model hemostasis and platelet transfusion in vitro [PDF]

, 2016
Blood platelets prepared for transfusion gradually lose hemostatic function during storage. Platelet function can be investigated using a variety of (indirect) in vitro experiments, but none of these is as comprehensive as microfluidic flow chambers.

Prolonged Turnaround Time of the Hematology Laboratory and Related Factors in the South Gondar Zone, North West Ethiopia, Multi‐Centered Study

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
Long turnaround times were prevalent in the hematology laboratories of South Gonder zone hospitals, predominantly as a result of staff incompetence. Clotted blood samples, low blood fill levels, and the day of the week were significant factors linked to delays, with samples collected on Friday having a higher likelihood of prolonged turnaround time ...
