The University of Melbourne metabolomics services are offered through the Victorian Centre for Plant Functional Genomics & Australian Centre for Plant Functional Genomics within its School of Botany and the Bio21 Molecular Science and Biotechnology Institute.

A broad range of metabolomics technologies, services and expertise are offered in the areas of:

• Analysis of a broad range of naturally occurring metabolites;
• Analysis of specific metabolites or sets of metabolites relating to targeted metabolic pathways
• Bio-prospecting metabolites in plant, animal and microbial systems
• Data storage, library construction, bioinformatics analyses, quantification and statistical validation of metabolic variations and biomarker responses
• Bioinformatics approaches to integrated systems molecular profile analyses linking metabolomics data with corresponding genomics, transcriptomics and proteomics data.
• Comparisons of genotype/SNP patterns with metabolite profiles of drugs or other test compounds administered to relevant biological test systems.
