Focused Targeted Assays
Quantitative analysis of defined metabolite panels selected around specific biochemical pathways, compound classes, or biological questions.
University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus
Targeted metabolomics approaches ranging from focused, pathway-oriented assays to broad standardized profiling of hundreds of metabolites and lipids. Choose the approach that best matches the biological question, desired coverage, and level of quantitative specificity.
Choose focused pathway-oriented assays when the biological question is specific, or extended standardized profiling when wider quantitative coverage is needed.
