An immunoaffinity liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method was developed for the quantitation of the zinc endopeptidase matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9) from mouse serum. Sample preparation for the assay included magnetic bead-based enrichment using an MMP-9 antibody and was performed in a 96-well plate format using a liquid-handling robotic platform. The surrogate peptide GSPLQGPFLTAR derived from MMP-9 by trypsin digestion was monitored using an on-line capillary flow trap-release chromatography setup incorporating a series of trap columns (C18, strong cation exchange, and another C18) prior to nanoflow chromatography and nanospray ionization with selected reaction monitoring (SRM) detection. The assay was fit-for-purpose validated and found to be accurate (<15% interbatch relative error) and precise (<15% interbatch coefficient of variation) across a range from 0.03 to 7.3nM mouse MMP-9. Finally, the method was employed to measure MMP-9 concentrations in 30 naïve mouse serum samples, and results were compared with those obtained by an immunoassay.

Brazil is an influential and successful food-producing country, where we can highlight artisanal cheeses gaining visibility in foreign markets. Some of these cheeses are made from raw milk, making them susceptible to contamination by microorganisms, including fungi, which can produce harmful mycotoxins. Feed contaminated with aflatoxin B1, when consumed by dairy animals, is metabolized and transformed into aflatoxin M1 (AFM1), which is excreted in milk.

Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) are intricate compounds that pose significant challenges in bioanalytical characterization. Therefore, multiple bioanalytical methods are required to comprehensively elucidate their pharmacokinetic (PK) profiles. In this study, we investigated DS001, an ADC consisting of a humanized monoclonal antibody (hRS7), a cleavable chemical linker, and the microtubule inhibitor monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE), with a drug-to-antibody ratio (DAR) of 8.

Objectives: An analytical protocol based on isotope dilution liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (ID-LC-MS/MS), which includes a peptide-based calibration strategy, was developed and validated for the determination of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) levels in clinical samples. Additionally, the developed method was compared with a protein-based calibration strategy, using cTnI serving as a model for low-abundant proteins. The aim is to evaluate new approaches for protein quantification in complex matrices, supporting the metrology community in implementing new methods and developing fit-for-purpose SI- traceable peptide or protein primary calibrators.
