Abstract
Background and aims
Collecting clinical samples without inconveniencing participants is desirable. The profile of metabolites in mouth-rinsed water is similar to that in saliva. However, the intra- and inter-day variations in unstimulated or stimulated saliva metabolites from mouth-rinsed water have yet to be clarified. Thus, we aimed to fill this research gap using capillary electrophoresis–mass spectrometry metabolomics.
Materials and methods
We collected mouth-rinsed water from 15 healthy participants at 9:00, 11:30, 14:00, and 16:30 daily for 3 days. In total, 509 metabolite concentrations from 180 samples were obtained using capillary electrophoresis time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Variations in each metabolite were evaluated using the Wilcoxon signed-rank test to determine at which time/day significant differences occurred after removing metabolites without significant changes using the Friedman test.
Results
Of 167 frequently detected metabolites, 100 exhibited intra-day variations, and none exhibited inter-day variations. Intra-day variations were classified into four patterns, and the intra-day variation in each metabolite was assessed. The variations may reflect elapsed time after meals, oral cleaning, or circadian rhythms.
Conclusion
This study could serve as a reference for improving the design of future clinical trials and the accuracy of metabolome analysis of mouth-rinsed water samples collected at different dates and times.
期刊介绍:
The Official Journal of the International Federation of Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine (IFCC)
Clinica Chimica Acta is a high-quality journal which publishes original Research Communications in the field of clinical chemistry and laboratory medicine, defined as the diagnostic application of chemistry, biochemistry, immunochemistry, biochemical aspects of hematology, toxicology, and molecular biology to the study of human disease in body fluids and cells.
The objective of the journal is to publish novel information leading to a better understanding of biological mechanisms of human diseases, their prevention, diagnosis, and patient management. Reports of an applied clinical character are also welcome. Papers concerned with normal metabolic processes or with constituents of normal cells or body fluids, such as reports of experimental or clinical studies in animals, are only considered when they are clearly and directly relevant to human disease. Evaluation of commercial products have a low priority for publication, unless they are novel or represent a technological breakthrough. Studies dealing with effects of drugs and natural products and studies dealing with the redox status in various diseases are not within the journal''s scope. Development and evaluation of novel analytical methodologies where applicable to diagnostic clinical chemistry and laboratory medicine, including point-of-care testing, and topics on laboratory management and informatics will also be considered. Studies focused on emerging diagnostic technologies and (big) data analysis procedures including digitalization, mobile Health, and artificial Intelligence applied to Laboratory Medicine are also of interest.
