الوصف: Metabolomics has been used to characterise many biological matrices and obtain detailed pictures of biological systems based on many metabolites. Plasma and serum are two blood-derived biofluids commonly used to assess and monitor the organismal metabolism and obtain information on the physiological and health conditions of an animal. Plasma is the supernatant that is separated from the cellular components after centrifugation of the blood that is first added with an anticoagulant. Serum is obtained after centrifugation of the blood that has been coagulated. The choice of one or the other biofluid for metabolomic analyses is related to specific analytical needs and technical issues, to problems derived by the collection and preparation steps, in particular when specimens are sampled from animals involved in field studies. Thus far, most of the metabolomic studies that compared plasma and serum have been carried out in humans and very little is known on the pigs. In this study, we used a targeted metabolomic platform that can detect about 180 metabolites of five biochemical classes to compare plasma and serum profiles of samples collected from 24 pigs. To also obtain a cross-species comparative metabolomic analysis, information for human plasma and serum derived from the same platform was retrieved from previous studies. Statistical analyses included univariate and multivariate approaches aimed at identifying stable and/or differentially abundant metabolites between the two porcine biofluids. A total of 154 (∼83%) metabolites passed the initial quality control, indicating a good repeatability of the analytical platform in pigs. Discarded metabolites included aspartate and biogenic amines that were already reported to be unstable in human studies. More than 80% of the metabolites had similar profiles in both porcine biofluids (average correlation was 0.75). Concentrations were usually higher in serum than in plasma, in agreement with what was already reported in humans. The univariate analysis identified 44 metabolites that had statistically different concentrations between porcine plasma and serum, of which 28 metabolites were also confirmed by the multivariate analysis. The obtained picture described similarities and differences between these two biofluids in pigs and the related human-pig comparisons. The obtained information can be useful for the choice of one or the other matrix for the implementation of metabolomic studies in this livestock species. The results can also provide useful hints to valuing the pig as animal model, in particular when metabolite-derived physiological states are relevant.
