Microbiome Research

Metabolomics comprehensively characterizes small polar and lipid metabolites that are uniquely from bacterial processing or shared with the host and modified within the microenvironment of the microbiota. This facilitates the understanding of metabolites and their biological implications in host-microbiota interactions, including their involvement in a multitude of complex diseases, such as cardiovascular disease, metabolic syndromes, and obesity. Furthermore, their involvement in various aspects of these diseases can provide more insights on how to improve current precision medicine approaches, including personalized dietary interventions.

    HMT’s metabolome analysis employs CE-MS & LC-MS platforms. Our technologies are optimized to measure small polar metabolites (including short chain fatty acids, modified indoles, polyamines, etc.), and dipeptides, in many types of samples, from sweat, tears to blood and fecal matter.

    Quantitation
    Over 100 polar metabolites, many of which can be altered by the microbiome, are quantifiable with single- or multi-point calibration.

    High resolution
    Good separation of structural isomers, e.g. isobaric fatty acids, oxidative products.
