Abstract:Metabolomics is the comprehensive analysis of small molecules involved in metabolic pathways that control biochemical processes and functions of cells in the body. Metabolomic studies consist of three major steps: pre-analytical, analytical and post-analytical. The review emphasizes the importance of the pre-analytical stage, which is the journey of a biosample from the patient to the biobank and then to the analytical laboratory. Based on the literature analysis, the review presents the factors that influence… Show more
