Sample Preparation:

Sampleprep ID:	SP001970
Sampleprep Summary:	Sample Preparation. Roughly 30 mg of frozen heart tissue were homogenized in 500 µl ice-cold methanol by bead beating (MP bioscience cat# 6913-100, Solon, OH) at 4°C (2 x 45 s). Metabolites and complex lipids were extracted using a biphasic separation with cold methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE), methanol and water. Briefly, 1 ml of ice-cold MTBE was added to 300 μl of the homogenate spiked-in with 40 µl deuterated lipid internal standards (Sciex, cat#: 5040156, lot#: LPISTDKIT-101). The samples were then sonicated (3 x 30 s) and agitated at 4°C for 30 min. After addition of 250 μl of ice-cold water, the samples were vortexed for 1 min and centrifuged at 14,000 g for 5 min at 20°C. The upper organic phase contains the lipids, the lower aqueous phase contains the metabolites and the proteins are precipitated at the bottom of the tube. For quality controls, 3 reference plasma samples (40 µl plasma) and 1 preparation blank were processed in parallel. 1) Metabolites: Proteins were further precipitated by adding 700 μl of 33/33/33 acetone/acetonitrile/methanol spiked-in with 15 labeled metabolite internal standards to 300 μl of the aqueous phase and 200 μl of the lipid phase and incubating the samples overnight at -20°C. After centrifugation at 17,000 g for 10 min at 4°C, the metabolic extracts were dried down to completion and resuspended in 100 μl 50/50 methanol/water. 2) Complex lipids: 700 µl of the organic phase was dried down under a stream of nitrogen and resolubilized in 200 μl of methanol for storage at -20°C until analysis. The day of the analysis, samples were dried down, resuspended in 300 μl of 10 mM ammonium acetate in 90/10 methanol/toluene and centrifuged at 16,000 g for 5 min at 24°C.
