Animal Carbohydrate Metabolomics Analysis

BioVenic conducts quantitative analysis of carbohydrate metabolites in animals, studying their distribution and function in different tissues and organs. This service aims to clarify the metabolic pathways and support scientific investigations into animal sugar metabolism mechanisms. At the same time, by examining sugar metabolism and analyzing the information provided by metabolic networks, we provide high-throughput solutions for researchers who are gaining insights into the role of carbohydrates in normal cell function and disease. We offer comprehensive carbohydrate targeted metabolism analysis services, which encompass sample preparation, separation techniques, biochemical analysis technology, and the design and development of bioinformatics algorithm tools for glycomics. Our aim is to fully cater to the personalized scientific research requirements of customers.

Background

Carbohydrates are the primary source of energy that animals obtain from their diet. Animals undergo various metabolic pathways, including glycolysis, the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, and the electron transport system, to facilitate the dynamic conversion of glucose to ATP. These molecules then travel through the liver and are distributed to different tissues in the bloodstream for various functions.

Applications of Animal Carbohydrate Metabolomics Service

• Exploration of Glucose Metabolism Pathways

The formation, decomposition, and mutual conversion of carbohydrates in animals involve numerous metabolic pathways, including glycolysis, the TCA cycle/pentose phosphate pathway, and lactate metabolism, among others. Through high-throughput targeted metabolomic analysis, it helps to fill in the gaps in the metabolic network and unravel the biological significance of substance utilization, energy production, and metabolic cycles in various life activities.

• Carbohydrate Metabolism and Energy Production

Carbohydrates are one of the most important sources of energy. Energy is continuously produced in the carbohydrate catabolism pathway and is either stored in different forms or used by various tissues of the organism. By quantitatively monitoring biomarkers that are highly correlated with metabolic pathways, the researchers can gain insight into the dynamic regulation of energy production levels and different physiological states. This demonstrates that the integration of bioinformatics analysis data can greatly assist scientists in comprehending the process of energy generation through glucose metabolism coupling in animals.

• Animal Metabolic Disease Research and Novel Drug Development

Since the metabolic network in animals is extremely complex and constantly changing dynamically, it is often difficult to determine the pathogenesis of metabolism-related diseases and develop drugs for them. The emergence of metabolomics has provided researchers with efficient and accurate high-throughput analysis tools. Through quantitative evaluation and differential analysis of biomarkers or specific small molecule metabolites, carbohydrate metabolite analysis further explores the underlying mechanisms of disease occurrence, identifies more effective treatment options, and provides new insights for the development of novel drugs.
