Metabolomics and COVID-19
Sars-CoV-2 is a novel coronavirus. Thus, the biology is not well characterized yet. Among the issues that we need to understand better are the factors that contribute to the heterogenic outcomes of Covid-19, and the reasons that put elderly populations at increased risk of severe disease courses. Against this backdrop, biomarkers that can be predictive of probable disease progression or the response to a specific course of therapy would be highly valuable to personalize treatments at every stage of the disease.
Getting started
Our proprietary software MetIDQ gives you control over the whole kit workflow – from sample registration to data analysis. If this is your first kit, please start your journey with watching the tutorial videos.
