Metabolomics in Nutrition Research

Nutritional metabolomics is rapidly developing small molecule chemical profiling to support integration of diet and nutrition in complex bio systems research. Foodomics is a new discipline that studies food and nutrition domains through the application of advanced Omics technologies which include the genomic, transcriptomic, proteomic, and metabolomics study of foods for compound profiling, authenticity, and biomarker detection related to food quality or safety, the development of new transgenic foods, food contaminants, and whole toxicity studies and the new investigations on food bioactivity, food effects on human health.
