Bioanalytics

Bioanalytics is a branch of analytical chemistry focused on the quantitative measurement of drugs, metabolites, and biomarkers in biological systems. It plays a critical role in drug development, especially during pharmacokinetic and bioequivalence studies. Techniques such as LC-MS/MS (liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry) and ELISA are commonly used in bioanalytical laboratories. Bioanalytics ensures that the concentration of substances in blood, plasma, or tissues is measured accurately and reproducibly.
