As mass spectrometric methods now offer a level of specificity and sensitivity unrealized by spectrophotometric- and immunoassay-based methods, mass spectrometry has entered the clinical laboratory where it is being used for a wide range of applications. In Clinical Applications of Mass Spectrometry: Methods and Protocols, expert researchers provide detailed step-by-step procedures for the analysis of number of analytes of clinical importance. This versatile and expansive volume covers mass spectrometry methods for analytes including a variety of drugs, hormones, and metabolic...

This volume describes methods and protocols for a number of drugs and toxins in a stepwise manner. Chapters in the book cover a wide array of topics such as: quantitation of Flecainide, Mexiletine, Propafenone, and Amiodarone in Serum or Plasma; quantitation of total Buprenorphine and Norbuprenorphine in Meconium; quantitation or Carisoprodol and Meprobamate in Urine; and quantitation of Tricyclic Antidepressants in Serum. Each chapter contains a brief introduction to the topic, clinical utility of the analyte(s), and useful notes to help laboratorians easily reproduce the protocols...

Biomarkers of Inborn Errors in Metabolism: Clinical Aspects and Laboratory Determination is structured around the new reality that laboratory testing and biomarkers are an integral part in the diagnosis and treatment of inherited metabolic diseases. The book covers currently used biomarkers as well as markers that are in development. Because biomarkers used in the initial diagnosis of disease may be different than the follow-up markers, the book also covers biomarkers used in both the prognosis and treatment of inherited metabolic disorders.

With the introduction of expanded...
