Abstract
A method of diagnosing Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD) in a patient comprising obtaining a plasma sample from the patient; determining a level of a biochemical sulfide in the plasma sample from the subject by trapping volatilized H2S in the plasma sample using alkaline buffer with monobromobiamine, and detecting the level of biochemical sulfide in the plasma sample, the biochemical sulfide being one of acid-labile sulfide, bound sulfide, and total sulfide; and diagnosing the patient with ADRD when the level of the biochemical sulfide is at least an elevated threshold level for the biochemical sulfide.
