Abstract: Disclosed are methods and systems using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) for the detection and/or analysis of progesterone metabolites, such as progesterone sulfates, in biological samples. In some cases, the amount of progesterone sulfate may be used to distinguish whether gestational pruritus of the skin is an early symptom of (ICP) or due to benign pruritus gravidarum.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods, systems, and computer program products for using liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) for the analysis of endogenous biomarkers, such as PGD2, in a biological sample. More specifically, the methods, systems, and computer program products are described for detecting and quantifying the amount of an PGD2 in a sample. The quantitative analysis may be helpful in making clinical diagnoses.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method for detection of an antibody or antibody fragment in a biological sample from a subject. In some embodiments, the methods comprise immobilizing a first binding agent on a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor; adding a ligand that binds to the first binding agent under conditions such that a complex of the ligand and the first binding agent is formed; adding an aliquot of the biological sample under conditions such that the antibody and/or antibody fragment binds to the ligand that is complexed to the first binding agent; and detecting the presence of the antibody and/or antibody fragment as a change in signal obtained from SPR. In some embodiments, the antibody is an antibody therapeutic such as certolizumab pegol. Also disclosed are systems and kits for detecting an antibody in a biological sample from a subject using SPR.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods and systems using liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS and 2D-LC-MS/MS) for the analysis of endogenous biomarkers, including steroid hormones, such as estrone and estradiol, thyroid hormones, such as free thyroxine, and metabolites, such as 25-hydroxyvitamin D2 and 25-hydroxyvitamin D3, in biological samples.
