General aim of metabolomics is to identify, measure and interpret the complex
time-related concentration, activity and flux of endogenous metabolites in
cells, tissues, and other biosamples such as blood, urine, and saliva; here
metabolites include small molecules that are the products and intermediates of
metabolism, as well as carbohydrates, peptides, and lipids.
