Phosphate buffered saline (PBS) with 4% bovine serum albumin (BSA) was sued as surrogate matrix. Both q and Q stock solutions were aliquoted and stored at -20 ֯ C. Calibration standards (1, 0.3, 0.1, 0.03, 0.01, 0.003, 0.001 and 0.0003 µM), and 3 quality controls (QCs; 0.8, 0.02 and 0.0008 µM) were prepared freshly either in ultrapure water; or spiked in matrix surrogate and then extracted using a PBA cartridge on the day of analysis.

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
