Metabolic profiling of biofluid specimens is an established method for investigating disease states in clinical studies but is only recently being applied to large-scale human population studies. As part of protocol development for the UK Biobank study, a (1)H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)-based metabonomic analysis of specimen storage effects and analytical reproducibility was carried out using urine and serum specimens from 40 volunteers.
