NMR based metabolomics

NMR metabolomics Overview

The term was formally defined in 1999 by Jeremy Nicholson and colleagues as “the quantitative measurement of the dynamic multiparametric metabolic response of living systems to pathophysiological stimuli or genetic modification”

Biofluids like urine and serum are mostly used in metabolomics

The most commonly used techniques are Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and liquid chromatography-Mass spectrum

NMR is nondestructive and relative easy for data interpretation which is excellent for developing routine metabolomics study
