About this ebook

Proteomic and Metabolomic Approaches to Biomarker Discovery, Second Edition covers techniques from both proteomics and metabolomics and includes all steps involved in biomarker discovery, from study design to study execution. The book describes methods and presents a standard operating procedure for sample selection, preparation and storage, as well as data analysis and modeling. This new standard effectively eliminates the differing methodologies used in studies and creates a unified approach. Readers will learn the advantages and disadvantages of the various techniques discussed, as well as potential difficulties inherent to all steps in the biomarker discovery process. This second edition has been fully updated and revised to address recent advances in MS and NMR instrumentation, high-field NMR, proteomics and metabolomics for biomarker validation, clinical assays of biomarkers and clinical MS and NMR, identifying microRNAs and autoantibodies as biomarkers, MRM-MS assay development, top-down MS, glycosylation-based serum biomarkers, cell surface proteins in biomarker discovery, lipodomics for cancer biomarker discovery, and strategies to design studies to identify predictive biomarkers in cancer research. - Addresses the full range of proteomic and metabolomic methods and technologies used for biomarker discovery and validation - Covers all steps involved in biomarker discovery, from study design to study execution - Serves as a vital resource for biochemists, biologists, analytical chemists, bioanalytical chemists, clinical and medical technicians, researchers in pharmaceuticals and graduate students

About the author

Haleem J. Issaq received his B.S. degree from the American College of Istanbul, Turkey, a M.S. degree from the Technion, Israel Institute of Technology, and a Ph.D. in analytical chemistry from Georgetown University in 1972. He was a Principal Scientist and Head of the Separation Technologies and Assay Development Group within the Laboratory of Proteomics and Analytical Technologies, SAIC-Frederick, Inc., located within the National Cancer Institute at Frederick, Maryland. His research interests include multidimensional separation of complex protein/peptide mixtures using liquid-phase-based separations (LC/LC, IEF/LC, and LC/CE), fast separation of estrogens, and use of HPLC/MS metabolomics for disease biomarker detection. He is the author or coauthor of over 350 scientific publications and the editor of A Century of Separation Science. He is the recipient of numerous awards, including Maryland Chemist of the Year.

Dr. Timothy Veenstra obtained his PhD in Biochemistry from University of Windsor (Windsor, ON) and completed a three-year post-doctoral fellowship at the Mayo Clinic under the guidance of Dr. Rajiv Kumar. He has over 20 years of research experience both in academics and as a Senior Vice President for a biotech company that focused on neurological diseases. With more than 380 published works (including 2 books), and eight patents, Dr. Timothy Veenstra brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to share with Maranatha’s science students.
