Sampleprep ID:	SP001782
Sampleprep Summary:	Extraction of Mammalian Tissue Samples: Lungs/Muscle/Heart 1. References: Fiehn O, Kind T (2006) Metabolite profiling in blood plasma. In: Metabolomics: Methods and Protocols. Weckwerth W (ed.), Humana Press, Totowa NJ (in press) 2.Starting material: Mammalian tissue: Lung/Muscle/Heart: Whole tissue sample is prepared OR stein mill whole tissue sample and weigh 50mL aliquot. 3. Equipment: Centrifuge (Eppendorf 5415 D) Calibrated pipettes 1-200?l and 100-1000?l Eppendorf tubes 2ml, uncoloured (Cat. No. 022363204) Centrifuge tubes, various sizes, polypropylene Eppendorff Tabletop Centrifuge (Proteomics core Lab.) ThermoElectron Neslab RTE 740 cooling bath at –20°C MiniVortexer (VWR) Orbital Mixing Chilling/Heating Plate (Torrey Pines Scientific Instruments) Speed vacuum concentration system (Labconco Centrivap cold trap) Turex mini homogenizer 4. Chemicals Acetonitrile, LCMS grade (JT Baker; Cat. No.9829-02) Isopropanol, HPLC grade (JT Baker; Cat. No. 9095-02) Crushed ice pH paper 5-10 (EMD Chem. Inc.) Nitrogen line with pipette tip 18 M? pure water (Millipore) 5. Procedure Preparation of extraction mix and material before experiment: Switch on bath to pre-cool at –20°C (±2°C validity temperature range) Check pH of acetonitrile and isopropanol (pH7) using wetted pH paper Make the extraction solution by missing acetonitrile, isopropanol and water in proportions 3 : 3 : 2 Rinse the extraction solution for 5 min with nitrogen. Make sure that the nitrogen line was flushed out of air before using it for degassing the extraction solvent solution Sample Preparation Weigh 50 mg tissue sample in to a 25 ml conical polypropylene centrifuge tube. Add 2.5mL extraction solvent to the tissue sample and homogenize for 45 seconds ensuring that sample resembles a powder. In between samples, clean the homogenizer in solutions of methanol, acetone, water, and the extraction solvent. Centrifuge the samples at 2500 rpm. for 5 minutes. Aliquot 2 X 500µl supernatant, one for analysis and one for a backup sample. Store backup aliquot in the -20°C freezer. Evaporate one 500µl aliquot of the sample in the Labconco Centrivap cold trap concentrator to complete dryness The dried aliquot is then re-suspended with 500?l 50% acetonitrile (degassed as given) Centrifuge for 2 min at 14000 rcf using the centrifuge Eppendorf 5415. Remove supernatant to a new Eppendorff tube. Evaporate the supernatant to dryness in the the Labconco Centrivap cold trap concentrator. Submit to derivatization.
