Statistical data analysis for metabolite p … Statistical data analysis for metabolite profile data<br />
The multi-platform data was summarized by unifying metabolite identifiers to a common referencing scheme using the MetMask tool (Redestig H, Kusano M, Fukushima A, Matsuda F, Saito K, Arita M: Consolidating metabolite identifiers to enable contextual and multi-platform metabolomics data analysis. BMC bioinformatics 2010, 11:214). The four matrices were then concatenated and correlated peaks with the same annotation were replaced by their first principal component. All data was log2 or log10 transformed prior to further data analysis. Principal component analysis (PCA) was performed on unit-variance scaled metabolite matrixes (observations, 81 samples; variables, 681 or 701 peaks) with log10 transformation using the pcaMethods package (Ref: Stackles) or SIMCA-P+ 13.0 software (Umetrics AB, Umeå, Sweden). 13.0 software (Umetrics AB, Umeå, Sweden).
