Your Metabolon Study Journey
When you start working with Metabolon, our team of experts will provide personalized study design and consulting to ensure your study will answer your specific research questions.
Once your study is booked with us, we help you protect the integrity of your samples for the most accurate and reproducible results through our complimentary Metabolon Study Success Sample Handling Kit. This kit, designed on best practices developed during over 20 years of best-in-class metabolomics study experience, provides the tools you need to make the process of collecting and sending samples to Metabolon quick, easy, and worry-free.
Our Client Success Team, in collaboration with your Sales Representative and Study Director, will work with you to manage sample shipment logistics, and once we receive your samples, your Study Director will create a detailed study plan informed by your study design that will guide us to deliver the highest possible quality of data and interpretation.
Your samples will be processed using protocols that adhere to U.S. Federal and International Standards and Regulations, so you can be confident that your study meets any required quality standards. And our in-house database of over 5400 biologically relevant small molecules paired with our unmatched coverage, competency, comparability, and capacity enables us to provide you with the greatest number of identified compounds with the highest possible confidence in the industry.
Through our best-in-class data interpretation services, you won’t just see a table with endless columns and values—you’ll see data you can understand, interpret, and use to further your research objectives. We also offer several options for simple, customizable data visualization, statistical analysis, and creation of publication-ready figures.
If you’re ready to experience state of the art metabolomics sample processing, world class data analysis and interpretation, and interactive collaboration from start to finish, reach out to us today.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do you support your clients?
Metabolon provides personalized guidance for study success at every stage of the process. Beginning with a study design consult, we set the stage for a successful study. Then, we offer guidance and tools for proper sample collection with the support of our Metabolon Study Success Sample Handling Kit. Once samples have gone through our laboratory process, reports may be visualized in the MyMetabolon portal. Some clients want deeper interpretation, so they work with our Discovery and Translational Science experts who elevate meaningful biological insights to narrate a comprehensive and credible story of your research discoveries.
Do you have expertise in my research area?
How do you ensure sample and prep standards?
Are your results reliable?
The biological insight from a study is only as good as the metabolite annotation – if you want the highest quality metabolomic insight you need the highest quality annotation. Our integrated bioinformatics solution makes it possible to efficiently and accurately mine the world’s largest, validated metabolomics compound library for every study, to ensure consistently reliable results, every time.

Why Metabolon?
Once you see the full value of metabolomics, the only remaining question is who does it best? While many laboratories have metabolite profiling or analytical chemistry capabilities, comprehensive metabolomics technologies are extremely rare. Accurate, unbiased metabolite identification across the entire metabolome introduces signal-to-noise challenges that very few labs are equipped to handle. Also, translating massive quantities of data into actionable information is slow, if not impossible, for most because proper interpretation takes two things that are in short supply: experience and a comprehensive database.
