摘要:
The present invention relates to a method for studying a sample containing a bacterial population of Staphylococcus aureus using a specific mass spectrometry technique which enables the specific detection, on the mass spectrum obtained, of the presence or absence of a peak with an m/z value at 3005 ± 5 Thomson or at 3035 ± 5 Thomson, and consequently the issuing of a decision conditioned by this result.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method for detecting at least one target molecule in a sample through mass spectrometry, wherein a) the molecules of the sample are ionized; b) the following steps (i) and (ii) are carried out n times, n being equal to 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4: (i) at least one ion obtained in the previous step is selected on the basis of the target molecule in a mass analyzer, and (ii) the thus-selected ion is fragmented in a fragmentation cell; c) at least two different ions obtained in step a) when n is zero, or in step b) when n is not zero, are trapped in a mass analyzer, the at least two thus-trapped ions having a mass/charge ratio m/z that is characteristic of the target molecule; d) the thus-trapped characteristic ions are ejected from the mass analyzer, and e) the ejected characteristic ions are detected by means of a detection device. The method of the invention is characterized in that the characteristic ions are ejected at the same time as step d) and detected at the same time as step e).
摘要:
The invention relates to a method for the in vitro diagnosis of colorectal cancer, by determining the presence of Liver Fatty Acid- Binding Protein, ACE and CA19-9 tumour markers in a biological sample taken from a patient suspected of having colorectal cancer. Said method can be used for early diagnosis, screening, therapeutic follow-up and prognosis, as well as for relapse diagnosis in relation to colorectal cancer.
