    Assessment of Thermal and Solvent Stable Spme Fibers for Metabolomics Studies Performed in Living Systems
    (Elsevier, 2025) Kahremanoglu, Kuebra; Jaroch, Karol; Szeliska, Paulina; Filipiak, Wojciech; Charemski, Bartlomiej; Zuchowska, Karolina; Boyaci, Ezel
    Solid phase microextraction (SPME), as a sampling/sample preparation technique, offers unique solutions for the most challenging applications, including metabolomics studies of living systems. However, for global metabolomics it is critical to use an SPME sampler facilitating the extraction of both volatiles and nonvolatiles, which at the same time is compatible with thermal and solvent-assisted desorption. As a promising universal coating, recently hydrophilic-lipophilic balanced (HLB) particles immobilized in PTFE have been introduced as a new SPME sampler to provide a wide-range of analyte coverage and compatibility with solvent and thermal desorption. Thus, making it suitable for both gas and liquid chromatography (GC/LC) based applications. However, its potential in metabolomics has not been investigated to date. In this study, HLB/PTFE SPME fibers were prepared, evaluated with selected polar and non-polar metabolites relevant to biological systems, and validated for cell-line studies. The validation proved that these fibers can extract a wide-range of molecules (LogP: 4.2 to 15.6) with acceptable accuracy (<= 19% RE%) and repeatability (intra-day <= 17% and inter-day 12% RSD%). The LOQ was determined to vary between 150.0 and 500.0 ng/mL. Upon validation, the fibers were used in a proof-of-concept study for extraction of endometabolome and exometabolome of melanoma B16F10 and lung cancer LL2 cell lines. The metabolome studies showed that HLB/ PTFE fibers provide lower coverage, but for some compounds higher extraction efficiency compared to HLB/PAN fibers used in LC-based metabolomics. Fibers also proved suitable for GC-MS analysis, allowing for the detection of 36 volatile organic compounds in the headspace of the cell lines and RPMI medium.

    A Novel Approach Utilizing Rapid Thin-Film Microextraction Method for Salivary Metabolomics Studies in Lung Cancer Diagnosis
    (Elsevier, 2024) Pelit, Fusun; Erbas, Ilknur; Ozupek, Nazli Mert; Gul, Merve; Sakrak, Esra; Ocakoglu, Kasim; Goksel, Ozlem; Özdemir, Durmuş
    This study investigated the potential of targeted salivary metabolomics as a convenient diagnostic tool for lung cancer (LC), utilizing a rapid TFME-based method. It specifically examines TFME blades modified with SiO2 nanoparticles, which were produced using a custom-made coating system. Validation of the metabolite biomarker analysis was performed by these blades using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectroscopy (LCMS/MS). The extraction efficiencies of SiO2 nanoparticle/polyacrylonitrile (PAN) composite-coated blades were compared for 18 metabolites. Response surface methodology (RSM) was used to optimize the analysis conditions. Linear calibration plots were obtained for all metabolites at concentrations between 0.025 to 4.0 mu g/mL in the presence of internal standard, with correlation coefficients (R-2) ranging from 0.9975 to 0.9841. The limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantitation (LOQ) were in the range of 0.014 to 0.97 mu g mL(-1) and 0.046 to 3.20 mu gmL(-1), respectively. The %RSD values for all analytes were within the acceptable range (less than 20 %) for the proposed method. The method was applied to the saliva samples of 40 patients with LC and 38 healthy controls. The efficacy of metabolites for LC diagnosis was determined by in silico methods and the results reveal that phenylalanine and purine metabolism metabolites (e.g., hypoxanthine) are of great importance for LC diagnosis. Furthermore, potentially significant biomarker analysis results from the ROC curve data reveal that proline, hypoxanthine, and phenylalanine were identified as potential biomarkers for LC diagnosis.
