Small Molecule Analysis

Small molecule analysis involves identifying, quantifying, and studying tiny chemical compounds—called small molecules—that are present in biological samples, such as blood or tissues. These molecules include drugs, metabolites, and signaling compounds, which provide valuable information about health, disease, and biological processes. Using advanced techniques like mass spectrometry and chromatography, scientists can accurately detect and measure these molecules to support medical research, diagnostics, and drug development. The process helps us understand how the body functions at a chemical level and how it responds to various stimuli or treatments.
