BACKGROUND: Chicken meat has become a major source of protein for human consumption. However, the quality of the meat is not yet under control, especially since pH values that are too low or too high are often observed. In an attempt to get a better understanding of the genetic a...
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) survives host defences by adapting to host conditions, including acid stress, during infection. A critical survival strategy involves pH homeostasis, mediated by complex signalling systems that regulate metabolic reprogramming and stress responses. While ...
Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS)-based untargeted metabolomics studies require high-quality spectral libraries for reliable metabolite identification. We have constructed EMBL-MCF (European Molecular Biology Laboratory-Metabolomics Core Facility), an open LC-MS/MS spectral library ...
Metabolites in human biofluids reflect individual physiological body states influenced by various factors. Using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS), we conducted non-targeted, non-invasive, comprehensive metabolomics using saliva of 27 healthy volunteers in Okinawa, consisting of 13 ...
