Phthalates have been linked with abnormal newborn brain development, and a new study has identified a potential reason why.

9 Targeted and untargeted metabolomics approaches can answer different questions about biological samples, including how they have been affected by environmental or dietary factors, genetic mutations, ...

The field of synthetic biology revolves around the design-build-test-learn (DBTL) cycle, where biological components are adjusted in multiple iterations. Automation allows synthetic biologists to ...

Chenghao Lu, from the Mental Health Center of Tianjin Medical University in China, and colleagues explored biomarkers of TD through untargeted metabolomics for the early identification of TD in a ...

The findings are published in the journal Nature Mental Health. Researchers utilized untargeted metabolomics to identify APAP metabolites in second-trimester maternal plasma samples and examined ...

Elevated deoxycholic acid, triacylglycerols, ceramides, and phospholipids were identified in MASH patients, suggesting a noninvasive diagnostic potential. The study used untargeted lipidomic ...

This article explores how innovations in laboratory workflow automation are benefiting global environmental research.

The report is the first to use untargeted metabolomics — the study of all small molecules or metabolites in a biological system — to connect a mother’s phthalate exposure to a newborn’s ...
