Arginine, as a Key Indicator for Real-Time Stability Monitoring of Quality Control in the Newborn Screening Test Using Dried Blood Spot
Dried blood spots (DBS) have advantages such as minimizing blood collection volume and the distress to neonate. DBS have been used for tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS)-based newborn screening tests (NST) of amino acid (AA) and acylcarnitine. The Newborn Screening Quality Assurance Program (NSQAP) ha...

Dried blood spots (DBS) have advantages such as minimizing blood collection volume and the distress to neonate.

The Newborn Screening Quality Assurance Program (NSQAP) have been provided quality control (QC) materials for MS/MS, as DBS cards. The NSQAP is generally provided within 14 months of the shelf life and the recommended storage condition is at −10 °C to −30 °C.
