The Importance of Sample Preparation in Quantitative Bioanalytical LC-MS
Introduction: The pivotal role of sample preparation in quantitative bioanalysis In regulated bioanalysis, getting reliable quantitative data hinges on three tightly interwoven components: the sample preparation, the chromatography, and the mass spectrometric detection. While the final measurement is delivered by LC–MS, the journey begins long before the sample hits the instrument. The extraction step, designed…
