In the field of Bioanalytical Sciences, various methods are utilized for TDM. These include:
- High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC): A highly accurate method used to separate, identify, and quantify components in a mixture. - Mass Spectrometry (MS): Often coupled with HPLC (LC-MS), this technique provides high sensitivity and specificity for drug analysis. - Immunoassays: These are commonly used due to their simplicity and rapid turnaround time, although they may lack the specificity of chromatographic methods.
