Metabolomics serves as a critical pillar in clinical research, yet the lack of standardized protocols often limits the comparability of data across different platforms and institutions. The HUMAN (Harmonizing and Unifying Blood Metabolomics Network) has as one of its goals to to advance the field...
BACKGROUND: The human intestinal microbiome plays a central role in overall health status, especially in early life stages. 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing is used to profile its taxonomic composition; however, multiomic approaches have been proposed as the most accurate methods for...
In plant ecology, biochemical analyses of bryophytes and vascular plants are often conducted on dried herbarium specimen as species typically grow in distant and inaccessible locations. Here, we present an automated in silico compound classification framework to annotate metabolites using an unta...
SCFAs are the main microbial fermentation products from dietary fibers in colon and play a key role in keeping healthy in the whole-body. However, differences of SCFAs concentration in the serum and colon samples collected from rats had attracted few attentions. Here, we optimized the extract and...
Residues from ancient artifacts can help identify which plant species were used for their psychoactive properties, providing important information regarding the deep-time co-evolutionary relationship between plants and humans. However, relying on the presence or absence of one or several biomarke...
