ETD Archive

In the past decade, bioanalytical method development has become an integral part of clinical diagnosis, biomarker discovery, and drug discovery and development. The new and emerged bioanalytical technologies allow the quantitative and qualitative analysis of small molecules and biomolecules with high sensitivity and specificity. Specifically, the bioanalytical methods based on LC-MS and methylation-specific PCR are well suited for detecting low-abundance metabolites, proteins, and DNA in biofluids and tissues for biomarker investigation. They offer great clinical promises for early diseases diagnosis and therapeutic interventions. Besides, the LC-MS/MS quantitative method is essential for the estimation of pharmacokinetic and toxicological properties in drug …
