Nutritional biomarkers Biomarkers that can assess an individual's lifestyle,
diet and metabolic state are becoming increasingly useful in trials for new
pharmaceutical and nutritional products. Working alongside leading researchers
in the field of health and nutrition, HFL is developing an expanding range of
novel methods for the analysis of nutritional markers in biological fluids
including:
-
Phytoestrogens
-
Phospholipids
-
Phytanic acid
-
Carotenoids
-
Vitamins
Metabo(l/n)omics
HFL is applying its analytical expertise to metabolomic and metabonomic
investigations. These approaches are a valuable way to quantify changes in
complex metabolic profiles between individuals and the effects of drug
treatment, diet or disease state.
