Measurement of peptides such as oxytocin in plasma is a critical challenge in clinical research because of their extreme low concentrations as well as the tremendous interferencing substances co-presented in plasma. In this study, we developed an efficient salt-out assisted liquid-liquid extraction (SALLE) to treat plasma, and then analyzed the samples using nano-LC–MS to quantify intact...

The plasma of Parkinson's disease (PD) patients may contain various altered metabolites associated with the risk or progression of the disease. Characterization of the abnormal metabolic pattern in PD plasma is therefore critical for the search for potential PD biomarkers. We collected blood plasma samples from PD patients and used an LC-MS based metabolomics approach to identify 17...
