Lipidomics is a comprehensive and systematic analysis and identification of lipids and the molecules interacting with them in plant tissues or cells to understand the structure and function of lipids and thus reveal the relationship between lipid metabolism and the physiological and pathological processes in cells, organs, and even the organism. Based on the characteristics of high specificity, high detection sensitivity, and accurate quantification, targeted lipidomics can enrich and accurately quantify and characterize a specific lipid metabolite in plant tissues and can be combined with other experimental data to reveal the relevant molecular biological mechanisms of action. Targeted lipidomics is mainly used to validate hypotheses proposed by non-targeted lipidomics experiments and to conduct hypothesis-based exploratory experiments to study the metabolic models of specific lipid metabolites.

We can provide assay services for a wide range of sample types with extensive metabolite coverage, unique professional data processing methods and personalized services, and short cycle times to help advance your research projects.

Service Flow

Sample Requirement

• Plant tissue >2 g

*The experimental samples will not be returned, please back them up by yourself. Before sampling, it is necessary to set up the control group and the experimental group, and each group is suggested to repeat more than 3 times.

*Quick-frozen preservation with liquid nitrogen can minimize the leakage time of plant samples at room temperature.

*There is no restriction on plant varieties. For varieties with special requirements or rare varieties, please contact our staff for more information.

We Do Better

• We have our own Lipidsearch database, which contains information on 1.7 million lipid molecules in 8 major classes and 300 subclasses. We can respond to various types of samples and various research needs.
• Based on our optimized mass spectrometry platform and the most stringent QC system, we make the whole project run smoothly under a mature program, which greatly shortens the project cycle time and makes it easy to obtain more stable results, and can guarantee fast and accurate results of target analysis for each project.
