    Abstract Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is prevalent in the African American population. We identified eighteen G6PD-deficient samples (9%) in a study of residual, de-identified whole blood specimens from 200 African American pediatric patients using a point-of-care instrument. This highlights the possibility of a rapid time to result for G6PD testing, which can be valuable in some clinical scenarios.

    Abstract Background: Voriconazole is a broad spectrum triazole antifungal drug used to treat systemic fungal infections. Therapeutic drug monitoring of voriconazole is necessary for achieving maximal efficiency without inducing toxic side effects. Other publications have reported methods for measuring voriconazole in serum using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Here, we report for the first time a method for the measurement of voriconazole in serum samples using gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC-MS).
    Methods: Protein precipitation with methanol was used to extract the antifungal that was derivatized with BSTFA (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO) and analyzed by GC-MS. Linearity, sensitivity, precision, accuracy, and drug interferences were evaluated for this assay.
    Results: Our method was linear up to 10 μg/ml of voriconazole. The LOQ was determined to be 0.4 μg/ml. CV for between-day precision was <12%. Correlation with an established LC-MS/MS yielded a R2 of 0.96. Tested drugs did not result in >10% error in measurement.
    Conclusion: To our knowledge, we report here the first GC-MS method for voriconazole measurement with acceptable performance. We hope that this method allows clinical laboratories without HPLC or LC-MS/MS instrumentation to measure voriconazole.

    Abstract Background: Clinical laboratory testing has been an essential part of COVID-19 management. Serology can provide valuable information regarding a patient's exposure to virus, and may have a larger role to play as vaccines becomes available. Limited data is available on the serological response in pediatric patients. Here we investigate the use of one manufacturer's commercial assays for detecting IgM and IgG in an exclusively pediatric population.
    Methods: Abbott SARS-CoV-2 IgM and IgG assays were performed on an Abbott ARCHITECT i1000. For specificity studies, we tested 78 patient specimens collected before the COVID-19 pandemic, and 66 specimens from patients who tested negative for SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid amplification test (NAAT) during the COVID-19 pandemic. For sensitivity we tested 181 specimens from 41 patients with a positive NAAT result. Precision data was acquired for 20 days.
    Results: For IgM, the highest qualitative positive agreement with molecular results was observed to be 15-30 days after a positive NAAT result or after symptom onset. For IgG, the highest positive agreement was 31-60 days after a positive NAAT result or 61-90 days after the start of symptoms. IgM started to decline 30 days after NAAT results and faded by 90 days. IgG started to decrease 60 days after a positive NAAT result.
    Conclusion: The Abbott IgM and IgG assays have negative agreements of 98.7-100% relative to NAAT results. The IgM and IgG levels assayed by these methods start to decline months after positive molecular results and onset of symptoms in a pediatric population.

    Abstract Background: SARS-CoV-2 infection in children does not seem to follow the same pattern as in adults. Limited information is published on the level of antibody production and the duration of antibody response in children with COVID-19. Moreover, it is unknown if all children have a similar immune response to the infection, or if there are age dependent differences. In these data, we look at the IgM and IgG levels and duration of two age groups infected by the SARS-CoV-2 virus.
    Methods: Residual laboratory specimens from pediatric patients positive for SARS-CoV-2 infection were tested for IgM and IgG against SARS-CoV-2 using an automated Abbott ARCHITECT i1000. We tested 181 specimens from 41 patients with a positive molecular result. Data was grouped either as time after nucleic acid amplification test (NAAT) or time after symptom onset. Patient samples were divided into 2 age groups: 0 to 11 years old and 12 to 19 years old. The assays detect IgM against the spike protein and IgG against the nucleocapsid protein.
