The availability of reliable analytical methods and microsampling techniques is crucial for therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) and for the conduct of clinical PK studies in pediatric research, especially for low birth weight neonates. Sensitivity is of fundamental importance, not only in order to limit blood sample volume but also in order to simplify sample preparation procedures and improve throughput. This workshop will explore analytical challenges and opportunities.
