Abstract excerpt
We report here for the first time the on-line analysis of transthyretin genetic variants by mass spectral analysis. The use of mass spectrometry to analyze immunoprecipitated transthyretin has been previously described. However, the on-line analysis of TTR directly from serum reported here will allow for a fully automated high throughput analysis. Mutations in the plasma transport protein TTR are readily observed...
