#COLLECTION
CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY            	Merozoites were isolated from B. divergens infected erythrocite (iRBC) cultures
CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY            	at 40% parasitemia. The content from iRBC culture flasks was transferred to
CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY            	Falcon tubes and spinned at 600 x g and 4 ºC for 5 min. Then, supernatants were
CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY            	filtered once using 5 μm filters and twice using 1.2 μm filters (Versapor
CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY            	membranes) with the help of a 1 mL syringe. Subsequently, the resulting volume
CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY            	was spinned on a Falcon tube at 2000 x g and 4 ºC for 2 min. The supernatants
CO:COLLECTION_SUMMARY            	were discarded, and merozoite-containing pellets were placed on ice.
CO:SAMPLE_TYPE                   	merozoites isolated from RBC
#TREATMENT
TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY             	Since this was a qualitative study aiming to characterize specific metabolites
TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY             	from the Babesia divergens merozoites, only one sample group was included and no
TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY             	treatment was performed
#SAMPLEPREP
SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY            	Metabolite extraction and quenching: four volumes of cold methanol were added to
SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY            	one volume isolated B. divergens merozoite pellets placed on ice and quickly
SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY            	mixed using a high speed vortex. Then, samples were placed in an ice bath for 10
SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY            	min, Subsequently, samples were transferred to liquid nitrogen for 10 min and
SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY            	thawed in an ice bath for 10 min (this freeze-thaw cycle was repeated two
SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY            	times). Samples were then centrifuged at 5725 x g and 4 ºC for 5 min.
SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY            	Supernatants containing the metabolite extracts were transferred to new tubes,
SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY            	while the remaining pellets were re-extracted twice by adding 400 μL of cold
SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY            	methanol and undergoing the liquid nitrogen freeze-thaw cycles described above.
SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY            	Supernatants obtained for each biological replicate were combined and filtered
SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY            	through 0.22 μm nylon syringe filters and stored at -80 ºC until use. Prior to
SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY            	LC-QqQ/MS analysis, supernatants underwent LC-QqQ/MS-specific sample
SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY            	preparation. First supernatants were thawed on ice and vortex mixed for 2 min.
SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY            	On ice, 300 µL of each supernatant were transferred to LC/MS vials and
SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY            	evaporated using a vacuum concentrator at <10 bar for 2h. The dried extracts
SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY            	were then reconstituted in 60 µL of Milli-Q water with the help of an
SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY            	ultrasonic bath for 5 min. Then, samples were subjected to LC-QqQ/MS analysis.
#CHROMATOGRAPHY
CH:CHROMATOGRAPHY_SUMMARY        	The chromatographic method consists on a subtle adaptation of the Agilent dMRM
CH:CHROMATOGRAPHY_SUMMARY        	method, which uses tributylamine as an ion pairing reagent (for more
CH:CHROMATOGRAPHY_SUMMARY        	information, see
CH:CHROMATOGRAPHY_SUMMARY        	https://www.agilent.com/cs/library/technicaloverviews/public/5991-6482EN.pdf)
CH:INSTRUMENT_NAME               	Agilent 1290 Infinity II
CH:COLUMN_NAME                   	Agilent Zorbax RRHD SB-C18 (100 x 2.1mm,1.8um)
CH:CHROMATOGRAPHY_TYPE           	Reversed phase
#ANALYSIS
AN:ANALYSIS_TYPE                 	MS
#MS
MS:INSTRUMENT_NAME               	Agilent 6460 QQQ
MS:INSTRUMENT_TYPE               	Triple quadrupole
MS:MS_TYPE                       	ESI
MS:MS_COMMENTS                   	Method 1: Data was acquired in MRM mode. To achieve a higher signal from
MS:MS_COMMENTS                   	low-abundance metabolites, transitions corresponding to metabolites of interests
MS:MS_COMMENTS                   	were separated in two MS methods (see method 2). Transitions utilized in this
MS:MS_COMMENTS                   	study are subtle modifications of the transition dataset contained in the
MS:MS_COMMENTS                   	Agilent dMRM database and method (see
MS:MS_COMMENTS                   	https://www.agilent.com/cs/library/technicaloverviews/public/5991-6482EN.pdf).
MS:MS_COMMENTS                   	Feature assignment was performed by matching transitions and RT with these
MS:MS_COMMENTS                   	contained in the Agilent dMRM Database and Method, and further confirmed by
MS:MS_COMMENTS                   	addition of authentic MS-grade standards. The software workflow included user
MS:MS_COMMENTS                   	visualization in Agilent MassHunter Workstation Software Qualitative Analysis
MS:MS_COMMENTS                   	(version B.09.00), and further compound integration using Agilent MassHunter
MS:MS_COMMENTS                   	Workstation Software Quantitative Analysis (version B.09.00). Only metabolites
MS:MS_COMMENTS                   	with signal-to-noise ratio higher than 3 (limit of detection) were reported.
MS:ION_MODE                      	NEGATIVE
