Studying the Lipidome: Targeted and Untargeted Strategies
Lipidomics—the comprehensive profiling of lipids within biological systems—has emerged as a critical discipline in biomedical research, offering powerful insights into disease mechanisms, biomarker discovery, and therapeutic evaluation.
Yet the structural diversity of lipids presents significant analytical challenges that no single methodology can fully address.
Selecting the most appropriate analytical strategy requires a clear understanding of the trade-offs between discovery power, quantitative precision, and experimental complexity.
This infographic compares targeted and untargeted lipidomics workflows, examining the technologies underpinning each approach and their respective applications across key disease areas.
