چکیده

In this commentary, the potential of metabolomics/metabonomics/metabolic profiling (summarized in [1]) as a key platform for contributing to exposome studies is discussed. An overview of the exposome concept and recent developments is provided, alongside a brief summary of the technological platforms that currently underpin metabolic profiling. The article concludes with a personal perspective on the shortand mediumterm challenges faced by those in the metabolic profiling community addressing the area of exposome science.

Sequencing the exposome: A call to action☆

The exposome is a complement to the genome that includes non-genetic causes of disease. Multiple definitions are available, with salient points being global inclusion of exposures and behaviors, and cumulative integration of associated biologic responses. As such, the concept is both refreshingly simple and dauntingly complex. This article reviews high-resolution metabolomics (HRM) as an afford...

In vivo microsampling to capture the elusive exposome

Loss and/or degradation of small molecules during sampling, sample transportation and storage can adversely impact biological interpretation of metabolomics data. In this study, we performed in vivo sampling using solid-phase microextraction (SPME) in combination with non-targeted liquid chromatography and high-resolution tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) to capture the fish tissue exposome u...
