Abstract
Background: Clinical dosage of toxic and essential elements in blood is well established and the collection method is still by venipuncture. This method has drawbacks and is not suited for everyone. Volumetric absorptive microsampling (VAMS) has been shown to have advantages over venipuncture. Materials & methods: Using inductively coupled plasma tandem mass spectrometry, a method for quantifying elements in whole blood sampled on VAMS was developed/validated. Method's performance was assessed by comparison with whole blood results. Results: Validation and performance assessment tests tend to show that most of the targeted elements provides accurate and reproducible results comparing to a method of reference. Conclusion: Overall, VAMS presents good preliminary results to eventually become an alternative to venipuncture for blood sampling for some trace elements analysis purposes.

期刊介绍：
Reliable data obtained from selective, sensitive and reproducible analysis of xenobiotics and biotics in biological samples is a fundamental and crucial part of every successful drug development program. The same principles can also apply to many other areas of research such as forensic science, toxicology and sports doping testing.
The bioanalytical field incorporates sophisticated techniques linking sample preparation and advanced separations with MS and NMR detection systems, automation and robotics. Standards set by regulatory bodies regarding method development and validation increasingly define the boundaries between speed and quality.
Bioanalysis is a progressive discipline for which the future holds many exciting opportunities to further reduce sample volumes, analysis cost and environmental impact, as well as to improve sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, efficiency, assay throughput, data quality, data handling and processing.
The journal Bioanalysis focuses on the techniques and methods used for the detection or quantitative study of analytes in human or animal biological samples. Bioanalysis encourages the submission of articles describing forward-looking applications, including biosensors, microfluidics, miniaturized analytical devices, and new hyphenated and multi-dimensional techniques.
Bioanalysis delivers essential information in concise, at-a-glance article formats. Key advances in the field are reported and analyzed by international experts, providing an authoritative but accessible forum for the modern bioanalyst.
