The Duchossois Family Institute (DFI) Host-Microbe Metabolomics Facility (HMMF) features state of the art mass spectrometry based metabolomic capabilities in order to elucidate the role metabolites play in human health and disease. We provide targeted panels of metabolites that will be measured from various organisms and sample types and include amino acids, organic acids, tryptophan catabolites, neurotransmitters, carbohydrates, sugar phosphates, central carbon metabolism intermediates, fatty acids, nucleotides, bile acids and more.
We operate in a fee-for-service model where we will charge per sample run. Included in this cost will be consultation time, routine sample preparation, instrument run time, and routine data analysis. An appropriate number of biological replicates should be considered when determining the number of samples per submission. Additional bioinformatic support is available for an additional fee.
Please consult with the HMMF Director, Ashley Sidebottom, before sample collection, designing or conducting experiments to ensure high quality data collection and reporting.
