Summary：In the post-genomics era, metabolomics represents a new «  omics tool » that in the last decade has received increased attention in many biological fields such as white and green biotechnology, nutrition, plant physiology, microbiology, etc. Metabolomics is based on the holistic study of the metabolic profile that characterizes a specific phenotype in a biological system. This course is going to give an overview on metabolomics approach in biology and will present the technological diversity to carry out metabolic.
