Improved protocol for measurement of plasma β‐amyloid in longitudinal evaluation of Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative study patients

Abstract

The interassay variability and inconsistency of plasma β‐amyloid (Aβ) measurements among centers are major factors precluding the interpretation of results and a substantial obstacle in the meta‐analysis across studies of this biomarker. The goal of this investigation was to address these problems by improving the performance of the bioanalytical method.
