ABOUT BIOMIC_AUTH
BIOMIC_AUTh is an inter-disciplinary group active on a broad spectrum of bioanalysis and biomarker research. BIOMIC_AUTh Laboratory team comprises 29 researchers (17 PhD scientists) with strong expertise in bioanalysis and application in life sciences. Central research themes include metabolomics, genomics, foodomics and bioanalysis including the analysis of pharmaceuticals. BIOMIC_AUTh research focuses on the discovery of markers for diagnosis, prognosis & therapeutic/nutritional intervention of disease, (pre-)clinical drug research, and agro-food R&D. State of the art facilities, cutting edge LC-MS & GC-MS instrumentation and a strong track record, render Biomic a partner of choice for R&D in life sciences.
Research & Services
Untargeted Metabolomics
Global metabolic profiling employs proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) spectroscopy and mass spectrometry (MS). MS has become the key technology in holistic metabolite profiling due to its sensitivity and widespread availability. Generally LCMS-based metabolic profiling in metabolomics aims to offer the widest possible metabolomic coverage.

Targeted Metabolomics
Targeted methods can provide semiquantitative “fold change” information or full quantitative measurement of the target compounds. Overall targeted approaches provide the advantage that the detection/quantification and validation of the predefined analytes is better controlled. LC-MS/MS is the most widely applied platform for targeted profiling.

Bioanalysis
The BIOMIC_AUTh group can provide expert GLP & Non-GLP analytical services using LC-MS/MS and GC-MS/MS technology. We have experience in development, validation and application of quantitative analysis of drugs, drug metabolites and endogenous metabolites in virtually any biological specimen.

Foodomics
Foodomics constitute a new approach in food science and nutrition by providing information about the food metabolome (V. García-Cañas et al. Anal. Chem. 2012). As the knowledge of the food metabolome increases, new relationships can be discovered between analyte compositions and quality properties (A. Bordoni, F. Capozzi, Current Opinion Food Scie. 2015).

Bioinformatics
BIOMIC_AUTh has a dedicated group of bioinformaticians that apply the latest statistical analysis and AI techniques to support decision making and biomarker discovery from the data generated by omics analysis. Tools such as Python, R, Matlab, Orange, and statistical packages such as SIMCA, SPSS, are used in combinations to provide fast and reliable support for the team and external collaborators.
