Development of a Standard Reference Material for metabolomics research.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), in collaboration with the National Institutes of Health (NIH), has developed a Standard Reference Material (SRM) to support technology development in metabolomics research. SRM 1950 Metabolites in Human Plasma is intended to have metabolite concentrations that are representative of those found in adult human plasma. The plasma used in the preparation of SRM 1950 was collected from both male and female donors, and donor ethnicity targets were selected based upon the ethnic makeup of the U.S. population. Metabolomics research is diverse in terms of both instrumentation and scientific goals. This SRM was designed to apply broadly to the field, not toward specific applications. Therefore, concentrations of approximately 100 analytes, including amino acids, fatty acids, trace elements, vitamins, hormones, selenoproteins, clinical markers, and perfluorinated compounds (PFCs), were determined. Value assignment measurements were performed by NIST and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). SRM 1950 is the first reference material developed specifically for metabolomics research.

Infertility influences an estimated 20% of couples worldwide. The factors that can affect the fertility potential are equally distributed between men and women. Despite extensive research in male infertility, the etiology in majority of infertile men is unknown. In 2010, there was an opinion published in Nature asking a selection of leading researchers and policy-makers about what their future ...

In quantitative real-time PCR, the mRNA level can be quantified in relative terms based on the expression ratio of mRNAs of the target gene and an internal reference gene. Since, an internal standard should be expressed at a constant level among different tissues of an organism at all stages of development, and should be unaffected by the experimental treatment, the stability of different refer...

Metabolomics, is a comprehensive measure of small metabolites (<1500 Da), which has attracted enormous attention in the last two decades. Metabolomics, in particular investigates unique biochemical fingerprints left behind by specific cellular processes, which represent the metabolic status. Exercise metabolism researchers have started to use this method since 2007. Metabolomics has been used t...

Background Current strategies based on random selection of MII-oocytes to fertilize appear unsatisfactory in selecting the best number and the most vital oocytes to fertilize especially in poor responder women in which “chronological age” does not mismatch with “biological age”. The metabolomics- profiling approach, evaluating the final products of cell regulatory process (genome/transcriptome/...
