Metabolomics
Metabolomics is the study of the metabolome/metabolites, the unique biochemical fingerprint of all cellular processes. It is an Omics technology that allows simultaneous, global, and comprehensive characterization of small molecules in a biological system. It is the large-scale study of small molecules within a mass range of 50 – 1500 Daltons (Da), commonly known as metabolites, within cells, bio fluids, tissues or organisms. These metabolites within biological samples under given genetic, nutritional or environmental conditions are known as metabolome.
