What is Metabolomics?
For Example, metabolomics measures can help us tell from a blood sample who has coronary artery disease and how bad it is...
Here chemicals were measured in one blood sample and then a score based on the amounts found was graphed. People with no heart disease had a very different pattern of these chemicals than did those with heart disease.

Data Key:
