Sample Preparation:

Sampleprep ID:SP003096
Sampleprep Summary:Fecal samples were weighed into pre-tared 2 mL Precellys (Bertin Corp.) compatible vials, and one 2.8 mm stainless steel bead was added to aid homogenization. Fecal matter was homogenized using a Precellys Evolution by two 20 s cycles separated by a 30 s break. Extraction solvent was used at a ratio of 1 mL per 5 g feces and was comprised of 1:1:1 methanol:acetonitrile:acetone containing 10 uM of D3-creatine, D10-isoleucine, D2-biotin, D5-tryptophan, D3-caffeine, D3-octanoylcarnitine, D3-palmitoylcarnitine, D4-deoxycholic acid, D4-cholic acid, and D7-arginine as internal standards. Following extraction, samples were centrifuged for 10 min at 17,000 rpm. 100 uL aliquots of supernatant were transferred to Eppendorf vials, dried under a gentle stream of nitrogen, and stored at -80 ºC. On the day of analysis, the dried extracts were reconstituted in 85:15 acetonitrile:water for HILIC analysis or 9:1 water:methanol for RPLC analysis with volumes as described below. Pooled samples were prepared by combining equal volumes of reconstituted fecal matter extracts from all subjects.
