Select broad profiling or predefined-target analysis according to the research question, biological sample, and target information.
MtoZ Biolabs supports untargeted metabolomics, targeted metabolomics, untargeted lipidomics, targeted lipidomics, and exosome lipidomics. The appropriate direction is reviewed according to what needs to be compared, whether a target list is available, and which samples will be submitted.
Researchers from leading academic and industry organizations have worked with MtoZ Biolabs on metabolomics and lipidomics projects. Project scope, workflow, sample preparation, and controls are tailored to each study.
Start from the research question, sample type, and whether a predefined metabolite or lipid target list is already available.
Select a service direction according to the research goal, whether a predefined target list is available, and the biological sample being studied.
CHOOSE THIS WORKFLOW WHEN You need broad metabolite profiling or group comparison and do not begin with a predefined metabolite list. This direction supports comparative metabolite-feature analysis and database-supported candidate annotation across defined biological groups.
Click to preview →CHOOSE THIS WORKFLOW WHEN You have selected the metabolites of interest before project initiation and can provide a complete target list. Targets included in the current targeted metabolite list can enter routine review; other targets require separate assessment or custom development.

Click to preview →CHOOSE THIS WORKFLOW WHEN You have selected the lipids of interest before project initiation and can provide a complete lipid target list. Target coverage and the applicable project scope are reviewed on a project-specific basis before confirmation.
Click to preview →CHOOSE THIS WORKFLOW WHEN You are submitting exosome samples and the research question is specifically lipid-focused. Provide the sample source, preparation information, available amount, study groups, biological replicates, and expected result.

The service path moves from project review to the agreed result and delivery scope.
Clarify the research objective, sample matrix, groups, controls, biological replicates, target information, and expected result.
Confirm the applicable direction, target-list coverage, and any separate assessment or custom-development requirements.
Review the biological source, sample type, available amount, collection information, preparation history, and preparation needs.
Conduct the project according to the confirmed service direction and approved scope.
Apply project-specific result processing and candidate annotation where applicable.
Organize the result content and delivery arrangement confirmed before project initiation.
Project submission note: Please provide the research objective, sample information, study design, expected result, and a complete target list for targeted projects.
