INTRODUCTION: Because of its ease of collection, urine is one of the most commonly used matrices for metabolomics studies. However, unlike other biofluids, urine exhibits tremendous variability that can introduce confounding inconsistency during result interpretation. Despite man...
BACKGROUND: Lipidomics, the comprehensive measurement of lipids within a biological system or substrate, is an emerging field with significant potential for improving clinical diagnosis and our understanding of health and disease. While lipids diverse biological roles contribute ...
Sample collection can significantly affect measurements of relative lipid concentrations in cell line panels, hiding intrinsic biological properties of interest between cell lines. Most quality control steps in lipidomic data analysis focus on controlling technical variation. Correcting for the t...
