An informative and comprehensive book on the applications andtechniques of dried blood spot sampling
Dried blood spot (DBS) sampling involves the collection of asmall volume of blood, via a simple prick or other means, from astudy subject onto a cellulose or polymer paper card, which isfollowed by drying and transfer to the laboratory for analysis. Formany years, this method of blood sample collection has beenextensively utilized in some important areas of human healthcare(for example, newborn screening for inherited metabolic disordersand HIV-related epidemiological studies). Because of its advantagesover conventional blood, plasma, or serum sample collection, DBSsampling has been valued by the pharmaceutical industry in drugresearch and development.
Dried Blood Spots: Applications and Techniques featurescontributions from an international team of leading scientists inthe field. Their contributions present a unique resource on thehistory, principles, procedures, methodologies, applications, andemerging technologies related to DBS.
Presented in three parts, the book thoroughly examines:
* Applications of DBS sampling and associated procedures andmethodologies in various human healthcare studies
* Applications and perspectives of DBS sampling in drug researchand development, and therapeutic drug monitoring
* New technologies and emerging applications related to DBSsampling and analysis
Dried Blood Spots: Applications and Techniques is avaluable working guide for researchers, professionals, and studentsin healthcare, medical science, diagnostics, clinical chemistry,and pharmaceuticals, etc.
