Outline of Final Research Achievements

Pretreatment methods for mass spectrometry to separate and measure antigen (peptide / protein) from immunocomplex without LC (liquid chromatography) was studied. Specifically, denaturation treatment and ultrafiltration were carried out to separate antigens. Even if MALDI-MS (mass spectrometry by matrix assisted laser desorption / ionization method) ,which is relatively resistant to contaminants in samples is used, it is difficult to obtain sufficient reproducibility for detection data when deviating from the ideal condition.
We further conducted mass spectrometry research on tumor secretion, liver disease marker, vitamin D metabolite etc. and published peer reviewed studies. In MALDI - MS in the bacterial identification test of blood culture specimens, good results of clinical examination level were obtained by pretreatment method not dependent on LC by using special polymer.
