From: Methodological and analytical considerations for intra-operative microdialysis
Batch, perfusate type, and membrane length do not impact the relative abundance of recovered metabolites recovered in microdialysate. The median A raw and B normalized peak area was calculated for each catheter based on the 162 metabolites present across at least 90% of catheters. Normalization was performed based on normalizing each metabolite to have a median of one in each batch. Batch number, membrane length (10 or 20 mm), or perfusate type are notated for each sample. (Perfusate: D40 + LR = Dextran 40 kDa and Lactated Ringer’s; Alb + P = albumin + perfusate; D500 + aCSF = Dextran 500 kDa + artificial CSF)
