Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The D0, M1 and M6 samples from Stellenbosch University and the D0 and M1 samples from 14 patients of NAA2m study were used as discovery sets. Samples from all time points of the remaining 34 individuals of the NAA2m study were used as a qualification set. Samples used in the discovery phase (Figure 
1) were sterilized by γ-irradiation. Those used in the down selection and qualification phase (Figure 
1) were not γ-irradiated and additional biosafety measures were taken in handling these. The creatinine concentration of each sample was measured by an alkaline picrate based colorimetric assay (Oxford Biomedical Research, Oxford, MI). LC-MS analyses of urine samples were performed following the methods described in Mahapatra et al.
[22 (link)]. Positive-ion MS data in both centroid and profile modes were collected using the Agilent MassHunter Data Acquisition software. Data for the discovery samples sets were obtained in the 4 GHz high-resolution modes and that used in down selection and qualification was obtained in the 2 GHz extended dynamic range mode.

Q-TOF instrument control and MS data acquisition
was accomplished via the MassHunter data acquisition software (ver.
9.00, Agilent). The SLIM IM module control and data acquisition utilized
a custom user interface (GAA Custom Engineering). IM-MS data were
viewed and processed using MassHunter IM-MS Browser (ver. 10). IM
traces were integrated across narrow m/z ranges and imported into Excel (Microsoft) for further analysis,
including peak fitting and peak metric calculations (arrival time
centroid, resolution, resolving power, percent valley, etc.). IM profile
data acquired for the assessment of the resolving power across various
SLIM IM conditions were extracted using IM-MS Browser and further
processed and visualized in the R statistical computing programming
environment (R Core Team, Vienna, Austria) using the tidyverse suite
of tools.40 (link)

The Q-TOF settings were as follows: positive polarity, fragmentor voltage at 300 V, capillary voltage at 2050 V, drying gas at a flow rate of 5 L/min, and a 300 °C gas temperature. Auto MS/MS mode was used to analyze the intact protein, with a range of 110–3000 m/z for the MS scan and a 50–3000 m/z range for the MS/MS scan. Agilent MassHunter data acquisition software was used to perform the spectrum analysis.

The single or mixed standard solutions at individual concentrations of 100 ng/mL each were injected in the LC/Q-TOF-HRMS system to collect retention time data, MS and MS/MS accurate masses of target ions. A Microsoft Excel spreadsheet was created containing compound name, molecular formula, retention time, exact mass, collision energy and fragment ions for each analyte, and was converted into comma-separated values format for retrospective library searching by the Agilent MassHunter Data Acquisition software (version B.07.00). The raw data of a sample run can then be automatically matched against the database within a defined tolerance for retention time (±0.1 min) and exact mass (±5 ppm) by the MassHunter software (European Commission, 2021 , European Commission, 2021 , European Commission, 2019 ).

Quantification of Endogenous Compounds in Blood

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Data acquisition was performed with MassHunter Data Acquisition software (B.08.02, Agilent Technologies, Waldbronn, Germany). Data analysis was performed with Quantitative Analysis software (version 10.1, Agilent Technologies, Waldbronn, Germany). Peak areas corresponding to the endogenous concentrations of studied compounds in blood used to prepare calibration curves were subtracted from the values obtained for the calibration solutions (Vishwanathan et al., 2000 (link)). The concentration obtained at each step of the study was divided by the concentration obtained at step 1 (at rest before exercise) to obtain a change of magnitude factors. The means of the change of magnitude factors obtained at each step were compared with a one-way ANOVA test for data with a normal distribution and a Friedman test for data not satisfying the normality test. These statistical analyzes were performed using GraphPad prism 6 and as well as the construction of the different graphs. Results of prevalidation were computed with e-noval 4.1 software (Pharmalex, Mont-Saint-Guibert, Belgium).

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.
