Critical Steps to be Taken into Consideration Before Quantification of β-Amyloid and Tau Isoforms in Blood can be Implemented in a Clinical Environment

Abstract This review aims to document difficulties, limitations, and pitfalls when considering protein analysis in blood samples. It proposes an improved workflow for design, development, and validation of (immuno)assays for blood proteins, without providing reflections on a potential hypothesis of...
