Purpose of Paper

The purpose of this paper was to determine the effects of usage of and type of anticoagulant on plasma and serum protein detection by immunoassay and antibody microarray analysis.

Conclusion of Paper

General biases in protein concentrations were observed between serum and citrate-, EDTA-, and heparin-plasma. Generally, citrate-plasma had the lowest protein abundances, and serum and EDTA-plasma had the highest protein abundances, but there were many exceptions to these trends. Pooled data from 18 different laboratories revealed a clear dependence of the number of peptides found and the number of laboratories identifying a protein by mass spectrometry (MS) on the concentration of the particular protein.

Studies

  1. Study Purpose

    The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of usage and type of anticoagulant on plasma and serum protein detection by immunoassay and antibody microarray analysis. In addition, comparisons of antibody-based measurements with MS data were made to evaluate the relationship between analyte concentration and the likelihood of protein identification by MS.

    Summary of Findings:

    General biases in protein concentrations were observed between serum and citrate-, EDTA-, and heparin-plasma. Generally, citrate-plasma had the lowest protein abundances, and serum and EDTA-plasma had the highest protein abundances, but there were many exceptions to these trends. Pooling data from 18 different laboratories revealed a clear dependence of the number of peptides identified and the number of laboratories identifying that particular protein by MS analysis on the particular protein concentration.
