The central elements of good study design are having a clearly defined objective with an adequate spectrum of groups and proper controls. Our team will collaborate with you on a design for your research questions so that salient “cause and effect” metabolic changes are detected with proper consideration of sample types, time-points, doses and phenotypic/disease severity.

Adequate study power is central to uncovering statistically significant results. Even an otherwise well-designed study can produce ambiguous results if not sufficiently powered. Leverage our extensive metabolomic experience to be sure your study has enough samples to overcome biological variation, process variation, collection site variation and multiple other factors.
