About Metabolomics Analysis and IROA

METABOLOMICS ANALYSIS AND IROA powered By IROA Technologies

About IROA and Metabolomics Analysis Tools Metabolomics is a field of scientific study that analyses the chemical processes of cell metabolism. It studies the complete set of metabolites contained in an organism as a part of the cellular processes. The metabolites themselves are the end products of cellular processes. They tell us the exact physiological state of an organism. Although it is a fast emerging field, there are still many associated bottlenecks to overcome.

Issues of analytical variability, ion suppression and metabolite identification still plague metabolomics investigators.

How are the unique IROA labels made and how are they used?

How are these unique labels made? Compounds are randomly and universally labeled and the relative abundances of the isotopes of carbon are altered; enriched in one particular isotope and depleted in its other isotopic form. For example, 95% U13C6-Glucose is not actually 95% 13C6 and 5% 12C6. Instead each carbon atom position (1,2,3,4,5,6) has a 95% chance of being 13C labeled and a 5% chance of being 12C. Compounds such as 5% and 95% U-13C6-Glucose is specially made for IROA Technologies LLC by Cambridge Isotope Technologies, Inc. Get today the best metabolomics standards.
