Optimization of the skin multiple analyte profile bioanalytical method for determination of skin biomarkers from D‐Squame® tape samples

These data enable us to better manage SkinMAP studies and interpret their results. The use of 1.5 mL PBS containing 0.2% SDS and 0.5% PG with 30 min sonication at low (near 4 degrees C) temperature is optimal for the quantitation of a range of SkinMAP analytes. In order to protect researchers from obtaining inflated false positive rates, it is crucial to design such studies and analyze the data using appropriate statistical methodology, especially for those studies involving only a small number of subjects.
