Alzheimer Disease CSF Biomarker Used in Clinical Setting
Analysis of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is one of the key tools for the state-of-the-art differential diagnosis of dementias. Dementia due to Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is characterized by elevated CSF levels of total Tau (tTau) and phospho-181-Tau (pTau) and low CSF amyloid-β42 (Aβ42). More...27 Mar 2018
Troponin I Levels Predict Coronary Artery Disease Severity
Although coronary artery disease (CAD) may be present early in life, its progression over time is highly unpredictable. Coronary atherosclerosis can progress at variable rates, ranging from a gradual increase in luminal narrowing to an abrupt progression to total luminal occlusion. More...20 Mar 2018
Dried Blood Spot Protein Assays Evaluated for Biochemistry
Dried blood spots have long been used in applications like newborn testing, but they have yet to make their way into clinical proteomic testing in a significant way. This is due in part to the fact that conventional immunoassays, which are widely used for protein measurements in the clinic, are poorly suited to analyzing dried blood spots given their limited sample volume. More...15 Mar 2018
