The development of blood-based biomarkers of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) pathology as tools for screening the general population, and as the first step in a multistep process to determine which non-demented individuals are at greatest risk of developing AD dementia, is essential. Proteins that are reflective of AD pathology, such as amyloid beta 42 (Aβ 42 ), tau proteins total tau (T-tau) and phosphorylated tau (P-tau), and neurofilament light chain (NfL), are detectable in the blood. However, a major challenge in measuring these blood-based proteins is that their concentrations are much lower in plasma or serum than in the cerebrospinal fluid. Single molecule array (SiMoA) is an ultrasensitive technology that can detect proteins in blood at sub-femtomolar concentrations (i.e., 10 −16  M). In this review, we focus on the utility of SiMoA assays for the measurement of plasma or serum Aβ 42 , P-tau, T-tau, and NfL levels and discuss future directions.
