    Abstract: A sample preparation kit related to the present invention provides a significantly versatile analytical technique that is not affected by the diversity of antibodies, difference in species, matrix and the like. For preparing a sample to be used for detection of a monoclonal antibody through high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS), the kit includes a porous body for immobilizing a monoclonal antibody to be detected; nanoparticles with an immobilized protease; a reaction vessel for selectively digesting the monoclonal antibody by bringing the porous body and nanoparticles into contact; a buffer to be introduced into the reaction vessel along with the nanoparticles and porous body so that a protease reaction is carried out; and a filtration membrane to remove the porous body and nanoparticles after the proteolysis so as to extract the reaction product and the buffer.

    Abstract: A system and process may be used to test water samples to measure ATP and/or estimate a microbial population, for example using an adenosine triphosphate (ATP) based assay. The system includes a device that is use in combination with single-use or disposable cartridges. The cartridge receives the water sample and is pre-loaded with one or more reagents. The device receives the cartridge and contains physical, electronic and/or mechatronic devices that interact with cartridge. One or more actions such as metering, mixing and conveying are performed automatically by elements of the device and/or cartridge. A sensor in the device measures light produced in the cartridge from a reaction with ATP in the water sample. Optionally, the cartridge also contains a pre-loaded amount of ATP, which is used to provide an internal reference or calibration measurement.
