| Project Title: | Methods for improved identification and quantification in GC-MS-based metabolomic profiling of human plasma |
| Project Type: | GC-MS non targeted qualitative analysis |
| Project Summary: | The field of metabolomics as applied to human disease and health is rapidly expanding. However, studies reporting experiences with quality-control and method validation are lacking. In this study, we sought to identify and modify steps in GC-MS-based metabolomic profiling of human plasma that could influence metabolite identification and quantification. Our experimental design included two studies: 1) the limiting-dilution study, which investigated the effects of dilution on analyte identification and quantification, and 2) the concentration-specific study, which compared the optimal plasma extract volume established in the first study with the volume used in the current institutional protocol. We confirmed that contaminants, concentration, intra- and inter-experiment variability are major factors influencing metabolite identification and quantification. In addition, we established methods for improved metabolite identification and quantification, which were summarized to provide recommendations for experimental design of GC-MS-based profiling of human plasma. |
