Applications:

• Targeted and untargeted lipidomic and metabolomic analysis in clinical and basic research with all types of biological samples: biofluids, cells, tissues.
• Identification, quantification, and confirmation of metabolites and lipids.
• Statistical analysis of metabolites and lipids (metabolic fingerprinting) in population studies, to classify and differentiate healthy populations from those suffering from diseases and identify at-risk populations.
