| Abstract | BACKGROUND: Newborn screening to identify infants with treatable congenital disorders is carried out worldwide. Recent tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) applications have markedly expanded the ability to screen for >50 metabolic diseases with a single dried blood spot (DBS). The feature that makes metabolic disorders particularly amenable to screening is the presence of specific small-molecule metabolites. Many treatable disorders such as Wilson disease, however, are characterized by absent or diminished large proteins in plasma or within circulating blood cells, for which there are currently no cost-effective screening methods. METHODS: We developed an assay for quantifying ceruloplasmin (CP) in DBS for newborn screening of Wilson disease. CP-specific peptides from DBS samples digested by trypsin were quantified using isotopically labeled peptide internal standards and liquid chromatography-triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). RESULTS: The calibration curve was linear from 20 to 95 mg/dL (200-950 mg/L). Intraassay imprecision (mean CV) for CP concentrations of 25, 35, and 55 mg/dL (250, 350, and 550 mg/L) was 9.2%, 10.7%, and 10.2%, respectively. Interassay imprecision for 19 different batches was 8.9%, 5.8%, and 6.9%. A method comparison study on previously tested patient samples for CP gave comparable results with lower limit of quantification, around 0.7 mg/dL (7 mg/L). CONCLUSIONS: Our study supports that newborn screening for Wilson disease is feasible using LC-MS/MS assay for CP quantification in DBS after tryptic digestion. This approach should be applicable to newborn screening for other treatable genetic conditions, such as primary immunodeficiencies, that have large proteins as biomarkers. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
