20 Blood Plasma Define Blood... Whole Blood vs Blood Plasma vs. Blood Serum Snapshot 20

21 Blood Plasma Define Blood... Whole Blood several different cell typer: Erythrocytes (Red blood cells) Leukocytes (White blood cells) Thrombocytes (platelets) 21

22 Blood Plasma Define Blood... Hematocrit ph po2 pco 2 HCO - 3 Oxygen saturation 45 ± 7 (38-52%) for males 42 ± 5 (37-47%) for females 10-13kPa ( mmhg) 4.8kPa - 5.8kPa (35-45 mmhg) 21mM - 27mM Oxygenated: 98-99% Deoxygenated: 75% 22

24 Blood Plasma Define Blood... Hematocrit 45 ± 7 (38-52%) for males 42 ± 5 (37-47%) for females Ht, HCT, Packed Cell Volume (PCV) 24

25 Blood Plasma Define Blood... Plasma About 55% of whole blood is Blood Plasma. Straw-yellow in color litres in an average human 92% water 8% blood plasma proteins (Serum Albumin, Clotting factors, Immunoglobulins, Lipoproteins a.o.) And a wee bit of other stuff: Glucose, Amino Acids, Fatty Acids, CO 2, Lactic Acid, Electrolytes (See. Human Metabolome Database: Biofluid_browse.cgi?browsn=1&sortby=5 ) 25

26 Blood Plasma Define Blood... Serum Plasma from which the clotting proteins have been removed. Most of the proteins remaining are albumin and immunoglobulins 26

27 Blood Plasma Chylomicrons carry triacylglycerol (fat) from the intestines to the liver, skeletal muscle, and to adipose tissue (diameter 75 to 1,200 nm). Very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) - carry (newly synthesised) triacylglycerol from the liver to adipose tissue. Intermediate density lipoproteins (IDL) - are intermediate between VLDL and LDL. They are not usually detectable in the blood. Low density lipoproteins (LDL) - carry cholesterol from the liver to cells of the body. Sometimes referred to as the "bad cholesterol" lipoprotein. High density lipoproteins (HDL) - collects cholesterol from the body's tissues, and brings it back to the liver. Sometimes referred to as the "good cholesterol" lipoprotein. These are further subdivided... Changes are characteristic for diseased states... 27

28 Blood Plasma Combined hyperlipidemia (or -aemia). Commonly occurring form of hypercholesterolemia. Increased LDL and triglyceride concentrations, often accompanied by decreased HDL. 28

29 Blood Plasma - Sample Prep Problems. Broad plasma lipoprotein/ fat profiles Severe overlap Not many small molecules visible Still a lot of water... 29

30 SaBiofluids Blood Plasma - Sample Prep Solutions. Standard sample preparation: Add one part 0.9 % saline (10-100%) D 2 O to two parts plasma/serum. If for NMR tubes centrifuge 5 min, 12,000g, 4ºC Run just with presaturation (e.g. Noesypresat 1D) Fade out the Big molecules (CPMG 1D). Sort by T 2, also reduces S/N of small molecules. Fade out small molecules (Diffusion edited 1D). Sort by molecular mobility, slow molecules remains also reduces signals from slow moving molecules. HR MAS 30

31 Blood Plasma - Sample Prep AND/OR Precipitate proteins e.g. by means of acetonitrile or perchloric acid (beware of ionic strength!). Supernatant can be run either directly or after freezedrying+reconstitution (allows for upconcentration, lose volatiles). Only presat spectra relevant 31

37 Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) Composition similar to blood plasma (CSF is filtered plasma) with some differences: Higher levels of specific electrolytes, such as magnesium, sodium, chloride, and hydrogen. Levels of other electrolytes such as calcium and potassium. Amino Acids, Carbohydrates etc. (See e.g. Humane Metabolome Database, Biofluid_browse.cgi?browsn=5&sortby=5) Sample Storage (Levine et. al. 2000). : Below 20º C if deproteinized and neutralized Othwerwise below- 80º C. 37

39 Cerebrospinal Fluid (CSF) Sample preparation. Early works: Freeze drying, reconstitution with same volume of D 2 O with TSP. Later works No freeze drying, D 2 O with TSP added. Sample preparation (Levine et. al. 2000). Samples were concentrated by lyophilization and reconstitued in 99.8 % D 2 O With TSP. ph Justeret til 5.1 Sample Preparation (Lutz et. al, 1998).

45 Amniotic Fluid Characteristics: The amnion grows and begins to fill, mainly with water, around two weeks after fertilisation. After a further 10 weeks the liquid contains proteins, carbohydrates, lipids and phospholipids, urea and electrolytes, all which aid in the growth of the fetus. In the late stages of gestation much of the amniotic fluid consists of fetal urine. (wikipedia) 45

46 Amniotic Fluid Sample Storage (Graca, G. Et. Al. 2007): -20 C is acceptable (still large changes in Acetate) Below -70 C better. Sample Preparation (Graca, G. Et.
