Thomas Hankemeier (LACDR) will use
metabolomics to measure the environmental effects in blood, and to investigate which factors predict heart disease.
This augments pre-existing core facilities at WCM-Q that provide technical and instrumental support in several areas, including genomics, biostatistics, bioinformatics,
metabolomics and cellular imaging.
Summary: New Delhi [India] June 24 (ANI/NewsVoir): SCIEX, a global leader in life science analytical technologies, today announced a Co-marketing agreement with Elucidata, a disruptive integrated Omics platform company providing tools for
metabolomics data processing.
Metabolomics is an omics sciences in systems biology and involves global valuation and validation of endogenous metabolites inside a biological system.
Summary:
Metabolomics is an omics sciences in systems biology and involves global valuation and validation of endogenous metabolites inside a biological system.
The recent advances in the use of high-throughput techniques such as genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics and
metabolomics give hope to infertile men for a better diagnosis and treatment.
Towards quality assurance and quality control in untargeted
metabolomics studies.
Flavoromics is derived from the fields of chemometrics and
metabolomics. Essentially, it involves the non-targeted approach of rapidly gathering an immense amount of data on a diverse set of samples and then mining the data to understand complex problems.
Dr Halama, research associate in physiology and biophysics, said:"We expose cancer cells grown in the laboratory to different doses of an anti-cancer drug and then measure the changes in almost all of the small molecules that are present in the cells, using a technique called
metabolomics. Using sophisticated computational methods we then identify the molecules that the cancer cells are using to escape the drug's actions, and conceive ways to block that escape route." Dr Suhre, professor of physiology and biophysics and director of the bioinformatics core at WCM-Q, is one of the world's leading
metabolomics experts.
