  • Publication number: 20210199675
    Abstract: Methods are provided for detecting the amount of one or more CAH panel analytes (i.e., pregnenolone, 17-OH pregnenolone, progesterone, 17-OH progesterone, dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), androstenedione, testosterone, deoxycorticosterone, 11-deoxycortisol, and cortisol) in a sample by mass spectrometry. The methods generally involve ionizing one or more CAH panel analytes in a sample and quantifying the generated ions to determine the amount of one or more CAH panel analytes in the sample. In methods where amounts of multiple CAH panel analytes are detected, the amounts of multiple analytes are detected in the same sample injection.

  • Publication number: 20200003795
    Abstract: The present invention relates to compositions and methods for analyzing analytes of interest in liquid samples by mass spectrometry, and preferably in patient samples. Preferred analytes of interest include sirolimus (rapamycin), corticosteroids, bile acids and lamotrigine (lamictal). In one embodiment, by careful selection of target ions, a number of corticosteroids can be analyzed simultaneously and without interference from closely related molecules. In another embodiment, the present methods combine high turbulence liquid chromatography with mass spectrometry performed in positive and negative mode in a single assay to enable the detection and quantification of the composit˜on of bile acid pools. By combining mass spectrometry and high-throughput chromatography, the methods and compositions described herein can provide a rapid, sensitive, and accurate assay for use in large clinical laboratories.

  • Patent number: 10317377
    Abstract: Provided herein are methods of liquid column chromatography in which preparative chromatography is performed in-line with analytical chromatography. In particular aspects a monolithic preparative column is used to purify an analyte of interest from a mixture of other substances by applying the mixture to the column, reversing the flow through the column to elute the analyte, which is applied to an analytical column provided in-line with the preparative column. In other aspects, a single monolithic column is used to perform both the preparative chromatography and analytical chromatography steps in succession. In another aspect, a chromatography system is provided to perform preparative and analytical chromatography using a single monolithic column.
