Example 1

The following procedure was used for testing the blood serum stability of linkers in mouse, rat, or human serum

5 μL of text compound (0.5 mM in DMSO) was transferred separately to individual tubes containing 120 μl of 1× phosphate buffered saline, mouse, rat or human serum. The samples were incubated at 37° C. for 0, 1, 2, 4, and 24 hours. After each of the time points, an aliquot of 20 μl was taken from the samples and quenched with 60 μl of 75:25:0.1 MeOH:acetonitrile:formic acid. After quenching, all samples were held at −20° C. for 1 hour and further centrifuged at 14000 rpm for 15 mins. The supernatant was transferred to a fresh vial and stored at −20° C. until analysis.

Samples were analyzed using LC-MS/MS on Agilent 6530 Q-TOF mass spectrometer connected to an Agilent 1290 UPLC. 3 μL of samples were injected onto a Waters BEH C18 Column (2.1×50 mm, 1.7 μm) maintained at 60° C. The compounds were eluted from column at a flow rate of 0.4 mL/min, using a gradient of 0.1% formic acid in water and 0.1% formic acid in acetonitrile. The total run time is 9.5 min.

Urine samples were analysed in a negative electrospray ionisation (ESI) mode, and plasma samples were analysed in a positive ESI mode. The intensity of each ion was normalised, scaled, z-transformed, and aligned according to the retention time using the Mass Hunter Profinder B.08.00 and Mass Profiler Professional (MPP) software package B.14.9 (Agilent Technologies) to generate a normalised data matrix consisting of the retention time, m/z value, and peak area. Subsequently, PCA was performed using the MPP software for both positive and negative ESI datasets to determine sample clustering and distinguishing ions (filtered by P < 0.05, adjusted for FDR between pre-dose and week 8).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
