An Omics Approach to Food Science
For two years now the existence of a new science has been acknowledged - namely Food-omics, a science that is helping define particular foodstuff from a broader point of view. It is not enough anymore to know the composition of macro nutrients nor to go through the details of just a few components. In order to study the production of new foodstuffs, by focusing on its healthy properties or characterize existing foods from a similar perspective, ... Continue reading

A New Perspective for the Future of Medicine Thanks to NMR Metabolomics
NMR has a great role to play in structural biology and in turn in systems biology. Its targets are proteins and nucleic acids. Small molecules in living beings, called metabolites, are an important chapter in systems biology and have always been markers of phenotypes and of health and disease. Metabolomics is the youngest of the omic sciences. It looks to define all metabolites in a specimen, i.e. a biological fluid, a tissue, a ... Continue reading
