LC-MS/MSPros:• Highly selective
• Faster assay development
• Ability to multiplex
• Can be combined with immunoaffinity enrichment
Cons:• Expensive instrumentation
• Extensive sample prep
• Requires an internal standard
Serum Protein Measurement Methods
ELISA / LBA Pros:• High sensitivity
• High throughput
• Traditional methodology
• Minimal sample prep
Cons:• Assay specific reagents─ Long lead times─ Poor standardization
• Specificity concerns
• Difficult to multiplex

General Design of an Internal Standard
§ Not be present in any of the samples
§ Similar in physiochemical properties to the target analyte
§ Added as early on in the procedure as possible- recovery during transfer and clean-up- variability in extraction efficiency- injection volume variability- matrix suppression
§ for LC-MS , preferably an isotopically labeled version of the analyte (SIL)

Summary
• LC-MS can address the shortcomings of LBA’s associated with long assay development time and specificity
• Immunoaffinity enrichment can be combined with LC-MS to improve sensitivity
• Stable isotope labeled SIL proteins have been produced in human and e. coli cells and characterized for quantitative MS applications
• Use of SIL proteins and SILuMab standards reduces error and variability associated with enrichment and enzymatic digestion
