Metabolic Biochemistry - e-learning about analytical methods
Metabolic biochemistry encompasses a wide variety of specialist assays that can be difficult to understand at first and differs from the analytical principles that encompasses automated biochemistry.
The Metabolic Biochemistry Network (MetBioNet) has a wide variety of teaching resources and presentations about metabolic biochemistry assays including:
- Urine organic acids
- Amino acid analysis
- Acylcarnitine analysis
- Basics of mass spectroscopy including example spectroscopy traces
- Gas and Liquid chromatography principles
Reflective exercise
Compare the core differences in cost of test per sample, analytical throughput, manual steps involved, technical expertise required to troubleshoot, sources of analytical error, between the specialist assays seen here, and automated biochemistry.
