«If we can document that the dogs are good at picking up the odor in plasma after being exposed to the tissue, then we can try moving forward to see if the dogs could be imprinted solely
on the plasma samples,» Otto says.

Larger biomarker signatures can be detected with technology from CDI Laboratories, which offers microarrays of functional human proteins (over 20,000
on a single array) to test the antibodies present in human liquid biopsy
samples, such as blood, serum,
plasma, CSF, or tissue lysates.
The technology relies
on a method Waterloo's Prof. Janusz Pawliszyn developed in the 1990s called solid - phase microextraction (SPME), which uses a solid coating
on a
sample probe to selectively extract chemical substances from blood, saliva, urine and even
plasma.
«The signals are
sampled very quickly and stored
on the computer so we can understand what was happening in the
plasma.
Our job was to document what was going
on, sketch out some basic epidemiology, take
samples from acutely sick patients, and, if possible, find recovering convalescents who might provide
plasma to help cure future sufferers.
«Based
on our findings, the next phase will be to measure exosomes and exomeres in
plasma samples to help predict organs that may be targeted for metastasis during tumor progression,» said Dr. Lyden.

On arrival, the
samples were centrifuged (1200 × g, 15 min, room temperature) to separate
plasma from buffy coat and red blood cells, and the
samples were frozen in liquid nitrogen until they were analyzed.
Fasting blood
samples were processed
on the same day for serum lipids,
plasma glucose concentrations, white blood cell (WBC) count, and fibrinogen by the Institute of Clinical Pathology and Medical Research, Westmead Hospital, Westmead, Australia.
On the last day of each dietary period, blood
samples were obtained every two hours for measurements of
plasma glucose and insulin.
Plasma hormone levels were determined from pooled
samples obtained between 6 and 8 a.m. after an overnight fast
on days 5 — 7 (follicular), 12 — 15 (peri-ovulatory) and 21 — 23 (luteal).
Her team's work builds

plasma and tissue
samples.
Kristin Møller Gabrielsen of the Norwegian University of Science and Technology in Trondheim and colleagues report in the journal Environmental Research that they examined the liver, muscle and kidney tissues taken from seven polar bears killed by Inuit hunters in East Greenland in 2011 and analysed the effect of more than 50 contaminants in
plasma samples from Ursus maritimus, to see what effect organohalogen compounds could have
on the bears» thyroid systems.
