Metabolomics is the scientific study of the small molecules, known as metabolites, that are found within cells, tissues, and biofluids such as blood and urine. Metabolites are the end products of metabolism, the complex network of chemical reactions that occur within living organisms. By studying the metabolome, the complete set of metabolites in a biological sample, researchers can gain insights into an organism's health, disease states, and response to environmental factors.
