Abstract

Dried blood samples have been increasingly considered for clinical applications in recent years. The main disadvantages that limit DBS utility in clinical applications are the small sample volume collected, area bias and homogeneity issues, and sample preparation requirements for the necessary sensitivity and reproducibility required for clinical assessment. The recent advances in antibody array technology overcome the common disadvantages of immunoassay approaches by increasing the multiplex capabilities and decreasing the sample volume requirements as well as minimizing the expense and technical expertise required with many alternative high-density approaches like mass spectrometry.
