Sampleprep ID:SP001139
Sampleprep Summary:Crabs were removed from -80°C. 15 mg of muscle tissue was removed from each crab and placed in a 2 mL eppendorph tube. 2 x 3mm grinding beads were added to each sample. 225 µL of methanol with quality control standards were added to each sample. Samples were ground for 30 seconds at 1500 rpm using a GenoGrinder. 750 µL of methyl-tertbutyl ether (MTBE) was added to each sample. Samples were vortexed for 10 seconds and then shaked at 4°C for 6 minutes. 188 µL of LC-MS grade water was added to each sample. Samples were vortexed for 10 seconds and then centrifuged for 2 minutes at 14,000 rcf. The top, organic layer was split into two 350 µL aliquots, one submitted to lipidomics analysis and one saved for backup. The bottom layer was split into two 125 µL aliquots, one submitted to GC analysis and one saved as a backup.
