Isotope labeled internal standard samples

Details of the metabolomics assessment method were published previously (28 (link)). Briefly, 8 h of fasting blood sample was collected at admission. A total of 23 amino acids, i.e., alanine (Ala), asparagine (Asn), leucine (Leu), phenylalanine (Phe), tryptophan (Trp), tyrosine (Tyr), valine (Val), arginine (Arg), glycine (Gly), proline (Pro), threonine (Thr), citrulline (Cit), glutamine (Gln), histidine (His), lysine (Lys), methionine (Met), serine (Ser), ornithine (Orn), glutamate (Glu), aspartate (Asp), piperamide (Pip), cysteine (Cys), and homocysteine (Hcy), were detected via LC-MS. AB Sciex 4000 QTrap system (AB Sciex, Framingham, MA, USA) was used to conduct direct injection MS metabolomic analysis. Analyst v1.6.0 software (AB Sciex) was used for data collection. ChemoView 2.0.2 (AB Sciex) was used for data preprocessing. Isotope-labeled internal standard samples were purchased from Cambridge Isotope Laboratories (Tewksbury, MA, USA). Standard samples of the amino acids were purchased from Chrom Systems (Grafelfing, Germany).
