Rapid Multi-Omics Sample Preparation for Mass Spectrometry.

ABSTRACT: Multi-omics analysis is a powerful and increasingly utilized approach to gain insight into complex biological systems. One major hindrance with multi-omics, however, is the lengthy and wasteful sample preparation process. Preparing samples for mass spectrometry (MS)-based multi-omics involves extraction of metabolites and lipids with organic solvents, precipitation of proteins, and overnight digestion of proteins. These existing workflows are disparate and laborious. Here, we present a simple, efficient, and unified approach to prepare lipids, metabolites, and proteins for MS analysis. Our approach, termed the Bead-enabled Accelerated Monophasic Multi-omics (BAMM) method, combines an n-butanol-based monophasic extraction with unmodified magnetic beads and accelerated protein digesti
