Use of Tandem Mass Spectrometry for Multianalyte Screening of Dried Blood Specimens from Newborns
(2003)
Background:Over the past decade laboratories that test
for metabolic disorders have introduced tandem mass
spectrometry (MS/MS), which is more sensitive, spe-cific, reliable, and comprehensive than traditional as-says, ...
Application of Tandemmass Spectrometry to Neonatal Screening for Inherited Disorders of Intermediary Metabolism.
(2002)
This review is intended to serve as a practical guide for geneticists to
current applications of tandem mass spectrometry to newborn screening. By making
dried-blood spot analysis more sensitive, specific, reliable, and ...
Neonatal Blood Carnitine Concentrations: Normative Data by Electrospray Tandem Mass Spectometry
(2003)
Despite a number of published reports, there is limited infor-mation about carnitine metabolism in the newborn. To establish
normative data, we analyzed whole-blood carnitine concentra-tions in 24,644 newborns at age 1.85 ...
