Personal Metabolomics: A Global Challenge

Today, the introduction of metabolomics, like other omics sciences, into clinical practice as a personal omics test that realizes the perfect analytical capabilities of this science has become an important subject. The assembled data show that the metabolome of biosamples is a collection of highly i...

description Today, the introduction of metabolomics, like other omics sciences, into clinical practice as a personal omics test that realizes the perfect analytical capabilities of this science has become an important subject.

However, we have not seen the emergence of personalized metabolomics in clinical practice. This article analyzes the causes of this problem. The complexity of personal metabolic data analysis and its incompatibility with widely accepted data treatment in metabolomics are shown.

Problem-solving strategies that may radically change the situation and realize the analytical capabilities of metabolomics in medical laboratory practice are discussed.
