Capillary and Venous Blood Sampling Compared for Coagulation Assays

Capillary blood samples are generally assumed as unsuitable for coagulation testing since it is recognized that contamination with tissue factor and dilution with tissue fluid affects the coagulation assay. However, limited data is available about coagulations assays in which capillary blood sampling is compared to the standard venous blood withdrawal method. The aim of this study was to perform a method comparison between capillary and venous blood sampling for routine coagulation assays. More...

Unique Diagnostic Test Based on Mass Spectrometry Technique Accurately Identifies Early-Stage Alzheimer's Disease

Cerebral amyloid load is one of the first signs of early-onset Alzheimer's Disease (AD) in individuals with subjective memory complaints (SMCs) and has potential for use as a biomarker to indicate how the condition evolves. A new assay based on mass spectrometry has shown to be capable of quantifying amyloid-beta 40 and 42 proteins – both associated with the risk of having AD – in plasma samples. More...

ELISA Blood Test Uses Innovative Biomarker to Detect Heart Disease and Sudden Cardiac Arrest

The CardiNor SN assay from Cardinor AS (Oslo, Norway) is a blood-based cardiovascular risk test that detects SN, a small 33-amino acid neuropeptide detectable in the blood stream and produced by neuroendocrine and heart muscle cells. SN is the only biomarker shown to be associated with biological processes linked to cardiomyocyte handling and has been described as the “missing link biomarker” in CVD risk assessment. More...

Clinical Application of Leukocyte Counts Based on Targeted DNA Methylation Analysis

Differential leukocyte counts are usually measured based on cellular morphology or surface marker expression. It has recently been shown that leukocyte counts can also be determined by cell-type–specific DNA methylation (DNAm). Such epigenetic leukocyte counting is applicable to small blood volumes and even frozen material, but for clinical translation, the method needs to be further refined and validated. More...
