Metabolomics of Medicinal Plants

Metabolomics is a technique for large-scale analysis of metabolites in organisms and is an important part of systems biology. Metabolomics of medicinal plants mainly studies the effects of changes in external factors on plants, such as climate change, nutritional stress, biotic stress, and mutations and recombination of genes that cause small changes, and is one of the most powerful tools for phenotypic analysis of species. In modern herbal medicine research, metabolomics has important theoretical significance and application value in drug efficacy and safety, herbal medicine resources, and quality control research. In addition, metabolomics is often one of the first research methods considered before the analysis of model plant mutant libraries or transgenic libraries.

What We Offer

Service Flow

  • Sample preparation

To obtain stable experimental results, we select the extraction and separation methods according to the molecular structure, solubility, polarity, and other physicochemical properties of the analytes and their relative content, and optimize the test protocols one by one.

  • Derivatization processing

We have a multi-platform integrated metabolomics solution, including NMR, MS, HPLC, and isotope labeling technologies.

  • Isolation and quantification

Separation and quantification are important factors in metabolomics research and are the key areas of monitoring and quality control during our services.

  • Data analysis

Raw data are processed by our professional data analysis team for noise reduction, baseline correction, resolution improvement, and data normalization for subsequent analysis. This includes PCA, HCA, SOM, KNN, KMN, PLS, etc.

We Do Better

Metabolomics has become a hot topic in plant research, and more and more researchers need the professional services provided by Lifeasible. Moreover, our services not only provide a comprehensive analysis of individual metabolites, but also search for key genes in their metabolism, rapid classification of medicinal plants through metabolic fingerprinting, further analysis of the metabolic pathways of active ingredients in medicinal plants, and the influence and regulation of environmental factors on plant metabolism and quality.

The services provided by Lifeasible cover all aspects of plant research, please contact us to find out how we can help you achieve the next research breakthrough.
