Metabolomics is the state-of-the-art qualitative or quantitative analysis of metabolites present in biological samples. Since the majority of diseases are associated with metabolic alterations – either as a cause or result of the disease process – metabolomics is increasingly being used in drug and biomarker discovery.
Researchers have identified a group of blood metabolites that could help detect some children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD)...
Flow cytometry has become a widely used technology in life science research since its development in the 1970s. It is also essential for many biopharmaceutical and biotechnology companies due to its proficiency in identifying biomarkers, finding new inhibitory antibodies, and assessing the efficiency of new pharmacological protocols.
