Medical Metabolomics Facility (MFF)

Our services

The MMF offers untargeted and (semi-)targeted LC-MS(MS) based metabolomics, lipidomics and fluxomics support.
As a rule of thumb, we require for (metabolomics / lipidomics) analysis of

  • Cells: ≥ 500 µg protein equivalent
  • Tissue: ≥ 25 mg “wet” tissue
  • Plasma: ≥ 30 µL

As fluxomics is a more complicated approach, it is advised to contact us upfront on the approach and amount of material required.

Costs

Costs depend on the complexity of the question and time and materials needed for sample preparation and analysis (e.g. standards, columns,..), the sort of analysis conducted (metabolic fingerprinting, untargeted or targeted metabolomics, or metabolic profiling), etc.

If you are interested and want to inquire about the possibilities the MMF offers or discuss your research question, please do not hesitate to contact us.
