Results from this study4

No result from this study comes from a test of the peptide.

Studies that did not test the peptide alone4

In this study, Oxytocin was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. These results are not evidence about taking Oxytocin.

    A gradient-elution LC-ICP-MS/MS method quantified oxytocin and its diselenide analogue in human plasma, and external calibration and isotope dilution were both fit for purpose.

    In plain wordsIn lab tests, a new method measured oxytocin and a selenium version of it in human plasma, and two calibration methods both worked.

    Summary
    In the present study, a method for quantitation of the pharmaceutical peptide oxytocin (OT) and its diselenide-containing analogue (SeOT) in human plasma was developed using gradient elution LC-ICP-MS/MS.

    Summary · context
    Both calibration methods appeared to be fit for purpose regarding figures of merit including linearity, precision, LOD, LOQ and recovery.

    In this study, Oxytocin was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. This result is not evidence about taking Oxytocin.
