Metabolomics
Metabolomics or metabonomics, defined as the application of unbiased global, or holistic, analysis of biological samples (e.g. animal/human biofluids, tissue and cell extracts, in vitro incubation media etc., or plant/food extracts), are increasing exponentially as the potential of this approach to discover new biomarkers is becoming more widely appreciated.

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).
