Abstract excerpt
The universality of low molecular weight metabolites allows rapid and straightforward investigation of the biochemistry of genetically uncharacterised species. Thus ex vivo metabolic profiling in combination with multivariate data analysis (metabonomics) offers great potential in comparative biology. Here we present the first use of high resolution nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy to distinguish...
