 increment in sample volume [Bioanalytics]

Dear All,

How the increment in the sample volume can increasing the method sensitivity. kindly explain me as i am unable to understand that during validation X concentration gives good results with Y sample volume and during study due to this Y sample volume sensitivity is affected.

kindly clear me on that.

Regards,

Auditor

 increment in sample volume

Dear Auditor!

❝ How the increment in the sample volume can increasing the method sensitivity.


Increasing the sample volume will increase sensitivity only if you have a quite good sample preparation / trace enrichment. For simple point-and-shoot methods (e.g. protein precipitation) most likely background and/or matrix effects will increase as well outweighing the enhanced signal of the analyte(s). Since separation of analyte(s) from matrix’ components is never perfect, even in a ‘good’ method doubling the sample volume likely will not half the LLOQ.

Sorry, I don’t understand your point. Can you please reword it?

Most scientists today are devoid of ideas, full of fear, intent on
producing some paltry result so that they can add to the flood
of inane papers that now constitutes “scientific progress”
in many areas.    Paul Feyerabend
