Details concerning the determination of the serum metabolome and the results related to feeding and parity are given in Pacífico et al. (4 (link)). Briefly, 10 μl of aliquots of serum samples were processed using a targeted metabolomics approach based on the Biocrates MxP® Quant 500 kit (Biocrates Life Sciences AG, Innsbruck, Austria). Analysis of serum metabolome as well as of reference standards and quality controls (provided by the manufacturer) was carried out by ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography (uHPLC) and flow injection analysis (FIA), both coupled to tandem mass spectrometry. An Agilent 1290 series UHPLC system coupled to a 6500+ QTrap mass spectrometer equipped with an Ion-Drive Turbo V® ESI source (both Sciex, Foster City, CA, USA) was used for the analysis. Chromatographic and mass spectrometric parameters were set according to manufacturer's instructions. Data analysis was carried out in Analyst 1.6.3 (Sciex) for LC-MS/MS data and in the Biocrates MetIDQ software for FIA-MS/MS data.

The targeted metabolomic analysis of plasma samples was carried out by tandem mass spectrometry with the Biocrates MxP® Quant 500 Kit (Biocrates, Innsbruck, Austria). Six hundred and thirty endogenous metabolites belonging to 26 biochemical classes, including amino acids, fatty acids, lysophosphatidylcholines, and phosphatidylcholines, have been quantified in the kit. A detailed description of experimental metabolomics measurement techniques can be found at https://patents.google.com/patent/ EP1875401B1 and https://patents.google.com/patent/ EP1897014B1.
In brief, sample preparation was conducted using a 96-well device to quantify metabolite profiles. In this device, inserts have been impregnated with internal standards. And, a predefined sample amount has been added. Next, some analytes were derivatized with a phenyl isothiocyanate (PITC) solution, and after derivatization, the analytes were extracted by organic solvents and then diluted. Finally, the extracts were examined by Liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS) and Flow Injection Analysis Tandem Mass Spectrometry (FIA-MS/MS) methods via a 6,500 QTRAP® instrument (AB Sciex, Singapore).

Targeted Metabolomic Profiling of Serum

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Targeted metabolomics of serum samples collected from all participants between 24 and 48 h after diagnosis was conducted using Biocrates MxP® Quant 500 Kit (Biocrates, Innsbruck, Austria) measured by tandem mass spectrometry at Fraunhofer Institute for Toxicology and Experimental Medicine. Six hundred and thirty metabolites were assessed as part of the MetIDQ™ MetaboINDICATOR™ module designed specifically for MxP® Quant 500 kit data. Two hundred and two (202) metabolite indicators consisting of combinations of metabolite measurements that capture meaningful biological functions were also derived. Examples of such indicators include enzymatic activity based on substrate/product metabolite ratio and the sum of functionally/structurally similar metabolites. Flow injection Analysis Tandem Mass Spectrometry (FIA-MS/MS) was used to quantify lipids, and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) was used to quantify small molecules using 5500 QTRAP® instrument triple quadrupole mass spectrometer (AB Sciex, Darmstadt, Germany) as described previously (15 (link)). For the listed triacylglycerols, the “_” indicates that the positions (sn-1/sn-2/sn-3) of the fatty acid residues are unknown. Potential isomers are described by the manufacturer: https://biocrates.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/Biocrates_Q500_isomers_isobars.pdf.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
We identified differential metabolites after H. pylori eradication utilizing the Biocrates MxP Quant 500 kit (Biocrates, Innsbruck, Austria), which is capable of quantifying 630 metabolites across the metabolic spectrum and based on a quality-controlled, highly reproducible analysis platform. The frozen gastric biopsy specimens were weighed and homogenized according to the guidelines of the manufacturer. The homogenates were centrifuged at 2 to 4°C. Supernatants were transferred to a 96-well-based Biocrates sample preparation plate which was impregnated with internal standards and dried under a nitrogen stream. Then 5% phenylisothiocyanate (PITC) solution was added for derivatization. After the derivatization, the target analytes were extracted with an organic solvent. The obtained extracts were analyzed for lipids by flow injection analysis tandem mass spectrometry (FIA-MS/MS) and small molecules by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS).

Tandem mass spectrometry was performed for targeted metabolomics of plasma samples using Biocrates MxP® Quant 500 Kit (Biocrates, Innsbruck, Austria) at the Fraunhofer Institute for Toxicology and Experimental Medicine (ITEM). FIA-MS/MS was utilized to measure lipids using a 5500 QTRAP® instrument with an ESI source (AB Sciex, Darmstadt, Germany). LC-MS/MS utilizing the same 5500 QTRAP® instrument was used for measuring small molecules as described previously (17 (link)).

Metabolomic Analysis of EV and Plasma

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Metabolomic analysis of 0.01 mL EV- or PFP sample was performed using a Biocrates MxP Quant 500 kit (Biocrates AG, Innsbruck, Austria) according to the manufacturer’s instructions, as detailed in the Online Supplementary Material. The analytical procedure was guided by the laboratory information management software Biocrates MetIDQ (version 7.13.11, DB109-Nitrogen-2850 Revision 31.995, Base Version 109, Runtime version 1.8.0_181, Runtime architecture amd64; Biocrates A.G., Innsbruck, Austria). Analytical system control and data acquisition were accomplished using Sciex Analyst version 1.5.3. The analytical results were evaluated by MetIDQ and results were analyzed in R74 . Metabolites were excluded from the analysis if less than half of the measurements (< 7 for CTRL and < 4 for VEH) were below the limit of detection (LOD) in both groups independently for EV and plasma samples. For the analytes included, values below the LOD were imputed with a normal distribution around half of the LOD. For correlation analysis, metabolite types for which at least twelve plasma-EV measurement pairs were available were analyzed with a linear regression model. For both linear regression and statistical analysis, data were log10 transformed.

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.
