The goal of the Small Molecule Metabolomics core facility in the Institute of Plant and Microbial Biology is to provide cutting-edge mass spectrometry-based metabolomics services and cost-effective assays for investigators engaged in studying the metabolic perturbation of organisms. The Metabolomics Core offers a variety of services, including identification of targeted and untargeted metabolites, and global metabolites profiling. The Metabolomics Core is equipped with a liquid or gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry for separation and detection of various classes of metabolites. The metabolites we analyzed represent a diverse group of chemical compounds such as amino acids, lipids, carbohydrate, organic acids and environmental chemicals. We provide research consultation and technical supports like user trainings for instrument and software operations.
