Abstract:Metabolomics is the global analysis of metabolites within various tissues and biological fluids. The metabolome more closely represents the phenotype than the genome or proteome as metabolite fluxes are a product of both genetic and environmental influences. Thus, metabolomics may provide insight into the nutritional, metabolic, and general health status during different stages of the life cycle and during pathological conditions. The workflow is as follows: formulate hypothesis ‐ design study ‐ collect sample… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
