For serum samples, 50 μL serum was added to 100 μL cold acetonitrile solution containing 1 μM d5-TCA (Toronto Research Chemicals) as an internal standard. For tissue samples, 20 mg of tissue were homogenized with an acetonitrile solution containing 1 μM d5-TCA. After being precipitated, the upper supernatants were mixed with 0.1% formic acid solution. Then the concentrations of BAs were determined by Acquity UPLC/Synapt XS HDMS system (Waters Corp.). Chromatographic separation was achieved on an Acquity BEH C18 column (100 mm × 2.1 mm, 1.7 μm, Waters Corp.) at 45 °C with a gradient elution of mobile phase of 0.1% formic acid in water and 0.1% formic acid in acetonitrile (v/v) at a flow rate of 0.4 mL/min. Mass spectrometry was carried out under electrospray negative (ESI-) ion mode. A mass range of m/z 50 to 850 was acquired.

Wy was purchased from Chemsyn Science Laboratories (Lenexa, KS) and mixed into a custom grain-based diet by Research Diets (New Brunswick, NJ). CA, deoxycholic acid (DCA), CDCA, taurocholic acid (TCA), taurodeoxycholic acid (TDCA), taurochenodeoxycholic acid (TCDCA), tauroursodeoxycholic acid (TUDCA), and taurohyodeoxycholic acid (THDCA) were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, MO). βMCA, ω-MCA, tauro-α-muricholic acid (TαMCA), tauro-β-muricholic acid (TβMCA), and d5-TCA were obtained from Toronto Research Chemicals (North York, ON, Canada). All other reagents were of the highest grade commercially available.

Fecal Bile Acid Quantification

Feces were prepared as previously described (Chen et al., 2016) . In brief, 40 mg of feces was mixed with 400 μL of 80% acetonitrile; then, 10 μg/mL D5-TCA (Toronto Research Chemicals Inc., Toronto, ON, Canada) or D4-CA (CDN Isotopes Inc., Pointe-Claire, QC, Canada) was added as internal standard. The final concentrations of D5-TCA and D4-CA were both 0.2 μg/mL. The supernatant was collected and subjected to LC/MS analysis. Bile acids were analyzed by an AB SCIEX QTRAP 4500 LC/MS/MS system with an Acquity HSS T3 column (Waters, Milford, MA), and gradient elution with 10 mM formic acid in water and 10 mM formic acid in acetonitrile: methanol (35:65) as mobile phases. The cone voltage and collision energy were set as 70 V and 2 eV for nonconjugated bile acid, and 90 V and 65 eV for taurine conjugates, respectively. All standard solutions were stored at -20°C. Supplemental Table S2 (https:// doi .org/ 10 .3168/ jds .2017 -13713) shows the retention times of the analytes.

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.
