As a division of Creative Proteomics, Lipidomics is dedicated to providing cutting-edge mass spectrometry (MS)-based lipidomics services for biomedical research institutions, biotechnological and pharmaceutical companies. The company has recently announced the launch of fully-developed lipidomics bioinformation analysis service to screen differential lipid molecules and analyze their pathways, revealing the physiological mechanism of their changes.
Lipidomics is an emerging discipline that systematically analyzes lipids in organisms, tissues or cells and the components that interact with them. Lipids have a variety of important biological functions, and abnormal lipid metabolism can cause many human diseases, including diabetes, obesity, cancer, and neurodegenerative diseases. Lipidomics research is now a promising field that is widely used in important fields such as drug discovery, molecular physiology, molecular pathology, functional genomics, nutrition, and environmental and health sciences.
For different research purposes, lipidomics can be further divided into untargeted lipidomics and targeted lipidomics. Untargeted lipidomics uses LC-MS and GC-MS techniques to unbiasedly examine the dynamics of all lipid molecules before and after stimulation or perturbation of cells, tissues, organs, or organisms. Different lipid molecules were screened out by bioinformatics analysis and their pathways were analyzed to reveal the physiological mechanism of their changes. Targeted lipidomics is the study and analysis of specific lipidoids. The two are often used in combination to discover and quantify different lipid molecules.
“Creative Proteomics is equipped with advanced tandem mass spectrometry for lipid composition determination, powerful bioinformatic analytic systems, and a panel of experienced scientists and technicians to provide customer-tailored service with rapid analysis procedures and easy-to-read reports, allowing you to accelerate scientific research,” said Creative Proteomics’s Senior Scientist.
Lipidomics requires a variety of bioinformatics analysis techniques to meet different experimental needs. Common analytical techniques include liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS), gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), capillary electrophoresis-mass spectrometry (CD-MS), HILIC-MS, etc. High-resolution mass spectrometry techniques mainly include TOF-MS, FTICR-MS, Orbitrap-MS, Sector-MS, etc.
“With an integrated set of separation, characterization, identification and quantification systems, featuring with excellent robustness and reproducibility, high and ultra-sensitivity, Creative Proteomics provides rapid and cost-effective targeted lipidomics services,” commented Melissa George, Marketing Manager of Creative Proteomics.
