Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a medical condition where damage to the airway leads to a chronic inflammatory response. In this case study, scientists from Peking and Shanghai identified novel protein biomarkers from exhaled air condensate provided by patients with COPD. These samples were analyzed by liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (LC-MS).

The research is featured in the Journal of Proteomics.
