Direct sampling of organisms from the field and knowledge of their phenotype: key recommendations for environmental metabolomics.

Abstract excerpt

Critical questions must be addressed to evaluate the potential of metabolomics for studying free-living wildlife. First, can metabolomics identify stress-induced phenotypes in animals experiencing a highly variable environment or must animals be stabilized in a controlled laboratory prior to sampling? Second, is knowledge of species and phenotype (gender and age) required to interpret metabolomics data? To...
