Fasting Biomarker Measurement Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Fasting blood samples at baseline and at the exit visit were collected from each participant to measure fasting blood glucose and serum lipids (total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C)). Samples were stored in aliquots at − 80 °C and enzymatic measurements were analyzed using a Cobas Integra Roche analyzer (Roche, Indianapolis, IN).

Glucose, triglyceride and total cholesterol concentrations were determined with BIOSYSTEM kits (Barcelona, Spain) in plasma samples, according to manufacturer’s instructions. Plasma were used for the assay of lipoproteins on agarose gel by the method of Kalwakami [16 (link)]. Plasma creatine Phosphokinase (CPK) levels were measured using COBAS INTEGRA Analyzer (Roche; CA, USA).

Serum vitamin 25(OH)D level, CK and LDH activities, and Ca and sBAP concentrations were estimated in serum freshly separated from blood samples of each schoolchild as mentioned previously.55 (link),56 (link) Vitamin 25(OH)D levels were estimated in serum samples using immunoassay kits (IDS, Tyne & Wear, UK). Serum CK and LDH activities were measured using available enzymatic assays (Granutest 15; EMD Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA) and ultraviolet assays (Randox Laboratories Ltd., Antrim, UK). Colorimetric assays using Cobas Integra® analyzer and available kits (Hoffmann-La Roche Ltd., Basel, Switzerland) were used to determine Ca levels in serum. sBAP concentrations (U/L) were measured in serum using the MicroVue BAP immunoenzymometric assay (Quidel Corporation, San Diego, CA, USA).55 (link),56 (link)

Fasting Blood Biomarker Assessment

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
In summary, blood samples were obtained from three examination sites (the University of Wisconsin, University of California, Los Angeles and Georgetown University). All participants underwent fasting blood sampling before breakfast, and these blood samples were analyzed in the MIDUS Biocore Lab. The glycated hemoglobin assays were performed at Meriter Labs (Madison, WI) using a Cobas Integra analyzer (Roche Diagnostics, Indianapolis, IN). See Ryff and colleagues for more details about the assessment of these blood biomarkers.

Plasma Selenium and Inflammation Markers

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Plasma selenium concentration was measured by inductively coupled mass spectrometry (ICP-MS; Agilent 7700, Agilent Technologies, Inc) as described previously (8 ). Baseline and endline plasma samples were analyzed separately. A cutoff value of <1 µmol/L was used to define inadequate selenium status (13 (link)).
Plasma concentrations of C-reactive protein (CRP) and α1-acid glycoprotein (AGP) were measured by immunoassay using a COBAS Integra Analyzer (Roche Diagnostics). Cutoff values for plasma markers of inflammation were CRP >5 mg/L and AGP >1 g/L.

Comprehensive Anthropometric and Metabolic Evaluation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Anthropometric measurements were made and body mass index (BMI (kg/m2)) was calculated from weight and height. Blood pressure was measured in triplicate (HEM-705CP, Omron), and the average of the readings was calculated. Blood was drawn and processed after an overnight fast, and serum and plasma samples were stored at −70°C for subsequent analysis. Full blood count, lipid and glucose level measurements were made with standard biochemistry assays and C reactive protein (CRP) was measured with an immunoturbidimetric, high-sensitivity assay (Tina-quant assay performed on a Cobas Integra analyzer, Roche Diagnostics).

Comprehensive Metabolic Profiling of Fasting Blood Samples

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
After fasting for at least 12 hours, one tube of the ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid blood sample from each participant was collected for routine hematologic tests by Prodia Laboratory on Friday morning. Another two tubes of anticoagulant-free fasting blood were then collected and immediately centrifuged for 15 min at 3000 rpm before laboratory analyses. Total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), LDL cholesterol, triglyceride (TG) levels were analyzed using an Advia 1800 Analyzer (Siemens, Germany), hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) was measured by a Bio-Rad D10 Analyzer (Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA, USA), and immunoglobulin E (IgE) was measured using an Immulite 2000 (Siemens, Germany). Furthermore, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) was measured using a COBAS INTEGRA Analyzer (Roche Diagnostics), TNFα was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay using commercial kits (R&D System), and nitric oxide (NO) was analyzed using commercial kits (R&D System).

Plasma triglyceride and plasma cholesterol content were determined using a COBAS Integra Analyzer with the respective assay kits (Hoffman–LaRoche). Leptin concentration in plasma was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay using a kit purchased from (ALPCO Diagnostics). Nonesterified fatty acids (NEFA) were determined using the Serum/Plasma Fatty Acid Kit (cat no. SFA-5, Zen-Bio Inc., Research Triangle Park, N.C., USA).

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.
