MORE ABOUT THIS BOOK
Main description:
Metabolomics is the study of the small molecules transformed by the chemical reactions that make up life. Metabonomics identifies how these reactions go wrong in disease states. This book is an introduction to metabolomics and metabonomics. It surveys recent developments in the field, especially those of interest for understanding how human metabolism works and is perturbed in disease states. It has a hierarchically organized introduction and survey of metabolomics and metabonomics that enables a broad audience to appreciate the very cogent results emerging from the field.
