Quantitative Analysis of Low Testosterone Concentrations in Plasma Using the TSQ Quantiva Triple-Stage Quadrupole MS

Instrument Type: LCMSMS

Analysis of testosterone in female and juvenile plasma samples for research requires an analytically sensitive method with a limit of quantitation of at least 10 pg/mL. Liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (LC/MS), an analytically sensitive and selective technique, is widely accepted for testosterone analysis in complex matrices such as human serum or plasma.
