Blood microsampling (BµS) devices collect less than 100 µL of blood, offering a less invasive and more cost-effective alternative to venipuncture. However, its metabolomic comparability to conventional samples remains unclear, and standardized BµS metabolomic workflows are lacking. This study com...
Capillary electrophoresis–mass spectrometry (CE-MS) offers considerable advantages for polar compound metabolomics analysis, including simple workflows, fast method development, and suitability for small sample volumes. Blood microsampling (BμS) techniques (such as dried blood spots, quantitative...
Dementia is caused by factors that damage neurons. We quantified small molecular markers in whole blood of dementia patients, using non-targeted liquid chromatography-mass spectroscopy (LC-MS). Thirty-three metabolites, classified into 5 groups (A-E), differed significantly in dementia patients, ...
Metabolomics serves as a critical pillar in clinical research, yet the lack of standardized protocols often limits the comparability of data across different platforms and institutions. The HUMAN (Harmonizing and Unifying Blood Metabolomics Network) has as one of its goals to to advance the field...
SARS-CoV-2 (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2) is the coronavirus strain causing the respiratory pandemic COVID-19 (coronavirus disease 2019). To understand the pathobiology of SARS-CoV-2 in humans it is necessary to unravel the metabolic changes that are produced in the individuals...
We aimed to identify specific metabolomic changes and biomarkers for the differential clinical diagnosis of different subtypes of moyamoya disease (MMD). We conducted an pseudotargeted metabolomics analysis and pseudotargeted metabolomics analysis revealed decreased LPC expression in patients wit...
Blood plays a vital role in diagnostic medicine by providing essential information for assessing health and diagnosing various conditions. Routine blood tests can reveal important biomarkers that support early diagnosis and timely intervention. Recently, extracellular vesicles (EVs) have emerged ...
