Metabolomics Analysis — Metabolome Profiling

Metabolomics analysis is the large-scale, systematic measurement of small-molecule metabolites in a biological sample to characterise the metabolome — the complete set of metabolic intermediates and products present under defined conditions. By coupling high-throughput analytical platforms such as mass spectrometry (MS) or nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy with multivariate statistics and pathway databases, metabolomics bridges the genotype–phenotype gap and captures the downstream functional output of genes, transcripts, and proteins in real time.
