NMR metabolomics has inherent capabilities for studying biofluids, such as reproducibility, minimal sample preparation, non-destructiveness, and molecular structure elucidation; however, reliable quantitation of metabolites is still a challenge because of the complex matrix of the samples. The serum is one of the most common samples in clinical studies but possibly the most difficult for NMR analysis because of the high content of proteins, which hampers the detection and quantification of...

Influence of common preanalytical variations on the metabolic profile of serum samples in biobanks
Influence of common preanalytical variations on the metabolic profile of serum samples in biobanks
Abstract A blood pre-centrifugation delay of 24 h at room temperature influenced the proton NMR spectroscopic profiles of human serum. A blood pre-centrifugation delay of 24 h at 4°C did not influence the spectroscopic profile as compared with 4 h delays at either room temperature or 4°C. Five or ten serum freezeâ??thaw cycles also influenced the proton NMR spectroscopic profiles. Certain common in vitro preanalytical variations occurring in biobanks may impact the metabolic profile of...

The application of micro-coil NMR probe technology to metabolomics of urine and serum
The application of micro-coil NMR probe technology to metabolomics of urine and serum
Abstract Increasing the sensitivity and throughput of NMR-based metabolomics is critical for the continued growth of this field. In this paper the application of micro-coil NMR probe technology was evaluated for this purpose. The most commonly used biofluids in metabolomics are urine and serum. In this study we examine different sample limited conditions and compare the detection sensitivity of the micro-coil with a standard 5 mm NMR probe. Sample concentration is evaluated as a means to leverage the...
