Dataset for the optimization and validation of a gas chromatography-mass spectrometry method to analyze acetate, propionate and butyrate in the systemic circulation.

This dataset contains data about the optimization and validation of a gas chromatography method to analyze acetate, propionate and butyrate in blood. Validation parameters include linearity, precision, accuracy and recovery. The method's applicability was demonstrated with the analysis of the short-chain fatty acids in human blood samples that were collected in a dietary intervention study.
