Liver pieces were weighed and homogenized using a dounce homogenizer (Kimble Chase) in 500 µl 80% methanol including an internal metformin standard at a final concentration of 2(µg/ml, diluted from Metformin-d6 hydrochloride stock (Santa Cruz, 1mg resuspended in 1 ml DMSO). Samples were diluted prior to analysis as needed to ensure that measurements were within the linear range of measurements determined by a standard curve. Metformin and the internal standard (metformin-d6) were analyzed on an Agilent 6410 triple quadrupole mass spectrometer in MRM mode, coupled to an Agilent 1100 lc system. The transition states monitored were 136.1 −> 60.1 (quantitative transition), and 60.1 (qualitative transition) for the internal standard, and 130 −> 60.1 (quantitative) and 71.1 (qualitative) for metformin. Spray chamber settings were: N2 drying gas flow = 10L/min, drying gas temp = 350°C, and nebulizer pressure = 30psi. Capillary voltage was set to 4000V. Column used was a phenomenex 2.0 ×50mm Kinetex C18. Mobile phase A = H2O/40mM heptafluorobutyric acid (HFBA), and mobile phase B=MeOH. Flowrate was 200 µl/min. Gradient was T=0 90:10 to T=5min 5:95, with stop time at 10 minutes, followed by a 4 minute re-equilibration step (post-time). 5 µl was injected. Concentrations were calculated from a 5-point calibration curve. The concentration of metformin was normalized to tissue weight.

Sample preparation and instrumental parameters for analysis of endoCBs levels have been previously described in detail [29 (link)]. In brief, prior to the instrumental analysis, samples were extracted with a solution of methanol, chloroform and water. Samples were measured with a reversed phase liquid chromatography technique coupled with the triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS), operating in multiple reaction monitoring scanning (MRM). LC–MS/MS analysis was performed using Agilent Technologies 6410 triple quadrupole mass spectrometer coupled to Agilent Technologies 1200 series HPLC system. Separation was achieved using Zorbax Eclipse XDB-C18 (Agilent Technologies) column with an isocratic elution. The flow rate was 0.5 mL/min, and the total run time was 4 min. The mass spectrometer was operated in positive ion mode using MRM for quantification of the analytes. Deuterated internal standards (AEA-d8 and 2-AG-d8) were used for quantification. This method is selective, precise, and accurate for concentrations within a range of 0.4 – 70 nM for N-acylethanolamines and 40 – 11,000 nM for 2-AG.

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.
