The aim of this study was to use the commercial kit AbsoluteIDQ p180 (Biocrates) for the quantification of metabolites in aqueous humor (AH), as well as to determine the optimal volume of AH that is necessary to obtain reliable and reproducible results. Different volumes of AH (10 µl, 20 µl, and 30 µl) were tested. Of the 188 metabolites measurable with the Biocrates kit, 69 were detected in AH.

Blood samples were collected before surgery and AH during surgery. Liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS)-based targeted metabolomic and lipidomic analyses of samples were performed using the AbsoluteIDQ p180 kit.

This study was intended to use targeted plasma metabolomics and advanced MLMs to develop strategies for diagnosing brain tumors. Measurement of 188 metabolites was performed on plasma samples collected from 95 patients with gliomas (grade I-IV), 70 with meningioma, and 71 healthy individuals as a control group.
