Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Highly accurate and sensitive quantification of serum protein and peptide by mass spectrometry is a key technology which provides the standard value to calibrate and compare the results in clinical chemistry and other research field related to quantification. We performed amino acid analyses of pure C-peptide and C reactive protein with high accuracy, and established certified reference materials of these proteins. To achieve highly accurate and sensitive quantification for serum C-peptide and C reactive protein, we also developed the quantification methods utilizing purification and N-terminal modification methods to enhance the signal intensity.
