| Collection Summary: | All blood samples in the Mayo Clinic ADRC are collected from nonfasting participants in the sitting position in a clinical laboratory. Serum tubes (red-top) are drawn first, followed by EDTA plasma tubes. Blood is drawn from the median cubital vein with a 21 g needle and typically centrifuged at 2000 g for 10 minutes at 4°C. The serum and plasma are aliquoted into 0.5 mL and stored in a −80°C freezer until use. None of the aliquots were thawed before being pulled to measure the sphingolipids and fatty acids. We have previously shown that long-term storage, up to 38 years, in long-term −80°C freezers does not affect sphingolipid levels [26]. |
