About Us
A single source destination for fee-for-service metabolic profiling including comprehensive metabolite identification, quantification, and analysis.
The Metabolomics Innovation Centre (TMIC) is a nationally-funded core facility that has a unique combination of infrastructure and personnel to perform a wide range of cutting-edge metabolomic studies for clinical trials research, biomedical studies, bioproducts studies, nutrient profiling and environmental testing.
The platform consists of Dr. Liang Li (University of Alberta), Dr. David Wishart (University of Alberta), Dr. Christoph Borchers (Universities of Victoria and McGill), Dr. James Harynuk (University of Alberta), Dr. Michael Overduin (University of Alberta), Dr. Philip Britz-McKibbin (McMaster University), and Dr. Ian Lewis (University of Calgary).
cutting-edge metabolomic studies for clinical trials research, biomedical studies, bioproducts studies, nutrient profiling and environmental testing.
TMIC has access to more than $30 million in state-of-the-art metabolomics infrastructure.
It is supported by a team of lab managers, NMR spectroscopists, mass spectrometrists, chemists, computer scientists, statisticians and bioinformaticians.
TMIC is capable of identifying and quantifying up to 2000 different chemicals from certain biological samples.
This is approximately 5X more comprehensive than any other service currently available.
