Sodium fluoride preserves blood metabolite integrity for biomarker discovery in large-scale, multi-site metabolomics investigations

Xiong W., Anthony DC., Anthony S., Ho TBT., Louis E., Satsangi J., Radford-Smith DE.

Fluoride oxalate tubes maintained stable glucose and lactate levels in blood for 24 hours, minimizing preanalytical variation. Such tubes offer a viable option for delayed processing in metabolomic studies.
