代谢组学及其在微藻研究中的应用

Metabolomics and its application in the study of microalgae

摘要:

代谢组学以完整的生物体为研究对象，运用合适的分析测试手段检测靶向或非靶向代谢物，结合统计模型进行分析解释。随着微藻研究的深入，微藻与代谢组学结合探究分子作用机理的研究日益增多。本文总结代谢组学的发展概况、研究流程及常用分析技术特点和代谢组学在微藻领域的研究进展，展望代谢组学在微藻研究的应用前景与发展趋势，并提出实际应用中所面临的困难与挑战。

Abstract:

Metabolomics studies the complete biological system, to detect target or non-target metabolites by appropriate analytical methods and to interpret metabolites in combination with statistical models. Microalgae studies focus now increasingly on molecular mechanism by means of metabolomics. Here, we summarize the development of metabolomics, the research process and the characteristics of common analytical techniques and the progress of metabolomics in the field of microalgae. We also discuss the prospect of metabolomics in microalgae research, and challenges in practical application.
