Metabolome and lipidome analysis of human fecal samples

7 May 2025

In this application note, biocrates life sciences ag describes a sample preparation protocol for fresh, frozen, and lyophilized fecal samples developed for analyses using the MxP® Quant 500 kit. It includes advice on improving the comparability of metabolomics results across studies and laboratories. Finally, it describes expected metabolite detectability in feces together with an overview of the expected biological variances.

BiomarkersBiomarkers are biological markers which can be measured and evaluated to indicate a biological state. The use of biomarkers in research and diagnosis can indicate a normal or disease state or drug response of cells / tissues. Biomarkers include genetic markers, cell surface markers such as antigens, antibodies or receptors and secreted molecules such as cytokines. An assay system is required for identification of biomarkers. :MicrobiomeMicrobiome research focuses on the complex communities of microorganisms living in and on humans, animals, plants, and environments. It plays a crucial role in health, disease, and ecological balance.
