Abstract
The present invention is a method for detecting a specific disease based on the result of a measurement in which the amount of a peptide serving as a biomarker contained in a biological sample is determined by using an LC-MS. A pretreatment process performed before the measurement using the LC-MS includes the steps of preparing a mixed sample solution by adding a stable isotope reagent and a trifluoroacetic acid to the biological sample, where the stable isotope reagent is prepared beforehand by labeling the peptide with a stable isotope; boiling the mixed sample solution; injecting the mixed sample solution after boiled into a solid-phase extraction column to make the peptide be retained in the solid-phase extraction column; and passing a water-soluble organic solvent through the solid-phase extraction column to elute the peptide retained in the solid-phase extraction column and collect the eluate.
