Metabolic Disorders
When biochemicals in the body go astray, they can lead to diseases that affect the body's metabolism and show up as a variety of symptoms, which is how metabolic disorders are brought about. The control of a number of complicated physiological activities is frequently hampered by endocrine abnormalities and metabolic diseases. Genetic factors can also play a role in metabolic diseases. Enzymes, oxidative stress, liver biomarkers, kidney biomarkers, amino acids and proteins, glycolysis and carbohydrates, inorganic ions, lipids metabolism, plant stress resistance, tricarboxylic aci(TCA) cycle, etc. are just a few of the indicators and applications available through Life Technologies metabolism assay services. Life Technologies makes it possible to analyze substances and agents to evaluate numerous hypotheses.
Targeted Diseases: Diabetes and its consequences, including kidney disease, NASH, obesity, hypertension, thyroid dysfunction, lipid & cholesterol problems, bone disease, and other metabolic illnesses.
