Study Title | Metabolomics and Childhood Obesity: A Pilot and Feasibility Study With Multiple Phenotypic Anchors |
Study Type | Metabolomics |
Study Summary | “Metabolomics” is a powerful new analytical approach for measuring and evaluating all small and intermediate sized metabolites in a variety of tissues or samples in conditions of health and disease. The purpose of this research is to determine if “metabolomics” can be used to address several important unanswered questions about obesity in children. First we will use metabolomics to identify patterns of metabolites in blood that are unique to obese children. We will then determine if these patterns are predictive of excessive weight gain and/or poor weight loss response in non-obese and obese children enrolled in an exercise program. |

Sample Preparation:
Sampleprep ID: | SP000343 |
Sampleprep Summary: | Plasma samples were transferred to labeled tubes. A total of 219 study samples were thawed on ice for sample preparation200 uL of plasma sample were thawed and transferred to labeled tubes on ice where they were mixed with 50 uL Saline master mix (5mM Formate). Analytical quality control (QC) phenotypic pooled samples were generated by transferring a 25 µL of each sample of each respective phenotypical experimental sample into different 1.5 mL tubes. Whole study (total) pools were generated by transferring 200 uL of plasma from each Pool sample into a 2.0 mL tube. The tubes were vortexed for 4 min on a multi-tube vortexer and centrifuged at 16,000 rcf for 4 min. A 200 µl aliquot of the supernatant was transferred into pre-labeled 3mm NMR tubes for data acquisition on a 700 MHz spectrometer. |
