Figure 1 Synovial fluid S100A8, S100A9 and α-defensin were detected by MALDI-TOF-MS in PJI and non-PJI groups. PJI – periprosthetic joint infection; m/z=3374, HNP1; m/z=3345, HNP2; m/z=3489, HNP3; m/z=10833, S100A8; m/z=12688, des-MTCKM S100A9; m/z=13151, des-M S100A9; m/z=13273, S-nitrosylated S100A9; m/z=12249; IFS – internal reference standards. This figure was generated using QuanPRO protein quantitation mass spectrometer, Intelligene Biosystems (Qingdao) Co., Ltd., Beijing, China.
