Background
In recent years, proteomics research based on mass spectrometry technology is increasingly applied to clinical research. Acquisition of proteomic clinical samples is of paramount importance. Tear is closely related to occurrence and development of diseases and molecular mechanisms, contains a large amount of factors and proteins, ingested drugs or drugs can be secreted and discharged through tear secretion, detection of disease biomarkers is carried out by acquiring tear, and the method has important significance for diagnosis and treatment of eye diseases, especially drug analysis, drug detection, environmental health and ocular surface diseases, and prognosis prediction. Our understanding of ocular and systemic diseases can be enhanced by establishing a non-invasive diagnostic method with tears.
The two most common tear sample collection methods in the prior art include the stimulated tear method and the capillary method.
1. Stimulation tear method: and collecting more tears for multiple test applications. A thin layer of essential balm is applied to the skin of the lower eyelid or acupuncture points are used to suck tears at the outer canthus by capillary after reflecting tears. 2. Capillary method: the tip of the glass capillary tube was placed on the lower edge of the lacrimal river, and tears were collected from the conjunctival sac by capillary action. This approach requires more experience from the acquisition personnel, is particularly challenging to operate for dry eye patients with less tear fluid and has a poor patient experience. However, this approach can minimize contact irritation to ocular surface tissue.
