Metabolomics Analysis

• • Globo- and Isoglobo- Series of Glycosphingolipid Analysis Servic

  Serving as key components in cellular structure and function, glycosphingolipids (GSLs) carry significant roles in a variety of biological processes. The Globo- and Isoglobo- series of GSLs, in particular, have been implicated in cellular recognition, signal transduction, and cell adhesion, and are often linked to various diseases. At MtoZ Biolabs, we provide comprehensive Globo- and Isoglobo- Series of Glycosphingolipid Analysis Service, helping researchers unlock the complexity of GSL biology.

• • Starch and Sucrose Metabolism Service

  Starch and sucrose are crucial carbohydrates that play significant roles in the metabolic processes of animals. Starch, a complex carbohydrate composed of glucose units, serves as a major dietary energy source, especially in omnivorous and herbivorous animals. Upon ingestion, starch is broken down into glucose, which is then utilized for energy production through glycolysis and the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle.

• • Ascorbate and Aldarate Metabolism Service

  Ascorbate, commonly known as vitamin C, is a crucial antioxidant and cofactor in numerous enzymatic reactions across a variety of biological systems. It is essential for the synthesis of collagen, a structural protein vital for skin, cartilage, and bones, as well as for the maintenance of the immune system and the neutralization of free radicals. Ascorbate also plays a role in the regeneration of other antioxidants, contributing to cellular defense mechanisms. 

• • Glyoxylate and Dicarboxylate Metabolism Service

  Glyoxylate metabolism is a crucial biological pathway that enables organisms to convert fatty acids into carbohydrates, a vital process for survival in carbon-limited environments. It is integral to the glyoxylate cycle, which bypasses the decarboxylation steps of the tricarboxylic acid cycle, allowing the conservation of carbon skeletons. Dicarboxylate metabolism, on the other hand, involves key pathways that process intermediates like succinate and malate, essential for energy production and biosynthesis.

• • Pyruvate Analysis Service

  Pyruvate is a central metabolite in cellular metabolism, serving as a critical junction in various metabolic pathways, including glycolysis, the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, and fermentation processes. It plays a pivotal role in energy production, biosynthesis, and metabolic regulation. Pyruvate can be converted into acetyl-CoA for entry into the TCA cycle, lactate in anaerobic conditions, or used in gluconeogenesis, highlighting its versatility in cellular metabolism.

• • Carbohydrate Metabolism Analysis

  Carbohydrates are the most abundant biomolecules on earth and play essential roles in several biological processes such as energy storage, transportation, and structural functions. Carbohydrate metabolism is a fundamental biological process that involves the breakdown and synthesis of carbohydrates, providing essential energy and building blocks for various cellular functions.

• • Fructose and Mannose Metabolism Service

  Fructose and mannose are common monosaccharides with significant roles in energy metabolism and cellular functions in organisms. Fructose is predominantly found in fruits and honey and is frequently used as an additive in food products. It is metabolized in the liver through the fructose metabolism pathway, resulting in the production of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate and dihydroxyacetone phosphate, which are key intermediates in gluconeogenesis and fatty acid synthesis.

• • Pentose and Glucuronate Interconversions Metabolism Service

  The interconversion of pentoses and glucuronate is a critical metabolic pathway in carbohydrate metabolism, involving the transformation of pentose sugars and glucuronate (along with their respective salts or esters). Pentoses, which arise from the degradation of nucleotides and other biomolecules, are vital for nucleotide biosynthesis and the maintenance of cellular energy balance.

• • Butanoate Metabolism Analysis Service

  Butanoate metabolism is a critical biochemical process involved in various biological systems and disease conditions. It is fundamental to our understanding of metabolic diseases, including diabetes and obesity, and provides insights into potential therapeutic strategies. MtoZ Biolabs, a pioneering company in mass spectrometry and metabolomics service, offers an advanced Butanoate Metabolism Analysis Service to assist researchers in elucidating the complex network of butanoate metabolism.

• • Inositol Phosphates Analysis Service

  Inositol phosphates are minor but critical components of living cells, contributing significantly to cellular functions such as cell growth, apoptosis, and insulin signaling. Additionally, they are being studied as promising targets for pharmacological interventions. However, their analysis can be challenging due to their complex nature and the intricacies of their metabolic pathways.
