Targeted Metabolite Profiling by UPLC-MS

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Extraction of arachidonate metabolites was performed as described previously16 (link). Subsequently, metabolites were subjected to targeted analysis as described previously17 (link) using a UPLC-5500QTRAP triple quadrupole-linear ion trap hybrid mass spectrometer (AB SCIEX, Framingham, MA). Intensities of ion peaks (areas) were normalized to internal standards (Leukotriene B4-d4, Cayman Chemical, Ann Arbor, MI), which were added to liver homogenate before metabolite extraction.

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.
