Here, using HRMAS MRS, we studied gel samples of whole mouse blood by mixing them with silica powder. The obtained spectra agreed, in general, with the correlating serum samples, which proved the robustness of this method. Taking advantage of tiny amounts of samples (μl) and simple and rapid pretreatment, our new technique demonstrates a novel approach to metabolomic analysis and clinical applications.
