Physiological Variation in Laboratory Animals and Humans
2005
Metabolites are the products and byproducts of the many
complex biosynthesis and catabolism pathways that exist in
humans and other living systems. Measurement of metabolites in human biofluids has often been used for the diagnosis
of a number of genetic conditions, diseases, and for assessingexposure to xenobiotics. Traditional analytical approaches
have been limited in scope, in that emphasis was usually
placed on changes in the level of one or a few metabolites.
For example, urinary creatinine and blood urea nitrogen are
commonly used as parameters of renal function.
