Metabolomics

Metabolomics is based on the simultaneous analysis of multiple low-molecular-weight metabolites from a given sample. The goals of metabolomics are to catalog and quantify the myriad small molecules found in biological fluids under different conditions. The metabolomics represents the collection of all metabolites in a biological organism, and metabolic profiling. Key features - Theoretical approaches, number of examples and references - Provides a broad, application-oriented overview - Real application scenarios, such as metabolome projects that require the use of a whole set of drug design tools - This appears to be an excellent series of textbooks for students, researchers and scientists - Provides a comprehensive, definitive, and up to date reference of the main areas of specialist and expert knowledge and skills used by those involved in all aspects of the new drug development research - Illustrations help readers understand the research methodology easily - Lists of Web resources serve as a gateway to important research centers, institutes, and other sources of information
