Sample Preparation:

Sampleprep ID:SP001572
Sampleprep Summary:Lipidomics Sample Preparation and Mass Spectrometry Frozen plasma samples were thawed at room temperature (25 °C) for 30 min, vortexed, and 25 µL plasma was transferred to a borosilicate glass culture tube (16 x 100 mm). Next, 0.475 mL water, 1.45 mL 1:0.45 methanol:dichloromethane, and 25 µL isotope-labeled internal standards mixture were added to the tube. The Lipidyzer isotope labeled internal standards mixture consisted of 54 isotopes from 13 lipid classes (Sciex, Framingham, MA). The mixture was vortexed for 5 sec and incubated at room temperature for 30 min. Next, another 0.5 mL water and 0.45 mL dichloromethane were added to the tube, followed by gentle vortexing for 5 sec, and centrifugation at 2500 g at 15 °C for 10 min. The bottom organic layer was transferred to a new tube and 0.9 mL of dichloromethane was added to the original tube for a second extraction. The combined extracts were concentrated under nitrogen and reconstituted in 0.25 mL of the mobile phase (10 mM ammonium acetate in 50:50 methanol:dichloromethane). Quantitative lipidomics was performed with the Sciex Lipidyzer platform consisting of Shimadzu Nexera X2 LC-30AD pumps, a Shimadzu Nexera X2 SIL-30AC autosampler, and a Sciex QTRAP® 5500 mass spectrometer equipped with SelexION® for differential mobility spectrometry (DMS). 1-propanol was used as the chemical modifier for the DMS. Samples were introduced to the mass spectrometer by flow injection at 8 µL/min. Each sample was injected twice, once with the DMS on [phosphatidylcholines (PC); phosphatidylethanolamines (PE); lysophosphatidylcholines (LPC); lysophosphatidylethanolamines (LPE); sphingomyelins (SM)], and once with the DMS off ([cholesterol esters (CE); ceramides (CER); diacylglycerols (DAG); dihydroceramides (DCER)/ free fatty acids(FFA); hexosylceramides (HCER); lactosylceramides (LCER); triacylglycerols (TAG)]. The lipid molecular species were measured using multiple reaction monitoring and positive/negative polarity switching. Positive ion mode detected lipid classes SM, DAG, CE, CER, DCER, HCER, DCER, and TAG, and negative ion mode detected lipid classes LPE, LPC, PC, PE, and FFA. A total of 1070 lipids and fatty acids were targeted in the analysis. Data was acquired and processed using Analyst 1.6.3 and Lipidomics Workflow Manager 1.0.5.0.
