摘要:
Methods for determining the inventory of small process and control molecules (The Metabolome) and the interaction of the Metabolome with the Genome and Proteome (Metabolomic databases). Methods for evaluating Metabolomic databases for biochemical markers that correlate with outcome of a disease, allow monitoring of therapy and direct therapy. Methods for evaluating Metabolomic databases for lead therapeutic molecules and target systems for therapeutic manipulation. Methods of evaluating all relationships in a Metabolomic database for outcome of disease or therapy. The methods of Metabolomic database evaluation have application to stroke. Outcome predicting and therapy directing or monitoring markers of Methylation and oxidative processes in stroke have been determined. Methylation processes have been identified as targets for therapeutic development. A novel class of potential therapeutic agents that bind to DNA have been identified in stroke.
摘要:
A hyphenated technique based on the combination of high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), electrochemical (coulometric) oxidation (EC) and electrospray ionization (ESI)- or atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI)- mass spectrometry (MS), allows access of selected groups of low and medium polarity analytes to ESI- or APCI- mass spectrometry after HPLC by electrochemical treatment of the sample.
摘要:
Disclosed are systems and methods that include a flow-cell that includes porous conductive material(s) that provides a working electrode(s), an inlet connected to the flow-cell to deliver a solution containing an analyte(s), an outlet connected to the flow-cell to allow the solution to exit the flow-cell, a counter electrode positioned proximate to the outlet, and a voltage source(s) coupled to the working electrode(s) and the counter electrode. The methods can include delivering a solution containing an analyte(s) through an inlet to a flow-cell that includes porous conductive material(s) that provides a working electrode(s), connecting the flow-cell to an outlet for allowing the solution to exit the flow-cell, placing a counter-electrode proximate the outlet, and supplying a voltage from a voltage source(s) to the working electrode(s) and/or the counter-electrode.
