Serum Free Fatty Acid Extraction

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
We added 0.3 mL of PBS containing internal standards (100 ng of margaric acid) was added to 20 μL of serum, and the sample was mixed with a vortex. FFAs were extracted using an ISOLUTE SLE+ column (Biotage) and dichloromethane. The lower organic region of the sample was collected and dried under nitrogen stream. The residue was dissolved in 5 μL of pyridine and 30 μL of the reagent BSTFA+TMCS (99:1; TS-38831, Thermo Fisher Scientific) for trimethylsilylation. The derivatization reaction was performed for 30 minutes at 40°C.

Quantification of Urinary NNAL by UPLC-MS/MS

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Urinary total NNAL was quantified following a published procedure (12 (link)). Briefly, urine samples (250 μL)
with 2 pmols of 13C6-NNAL were incubated with 3000 units
of β-glucuronidase enzyme (in 50 μL PBS) overnight at 37°.
After incubation, the samples were subjected to primary and secondary extraction
using Isolute SLE+ column (Biotage, Part # 820–0140-C) and MCX 1cc (30mg)
Extraction Cartridge (Waters, Part # 186000252). The eluted samples were dried
under speed-vac and dissolved in 10mM ammonium acetate (30 μL) and
analyzed by UPLC-MS/MS.

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.
