What Are the Challenges in Integrating Nanotechnology with Metabolomics?
Despite the potential benefits, there are several challenges in integrating nanotechnology with metabolomics:
- Complexity of Biological Systems: The complexity of biological systems can make it difficult to interpret metabolomic data accurately. - Nanotoxicity: The toxicity of nanoparticles is a concern, as they can interact with biological systems in unpredictable ways. - Standardization: Lack of standardization in nanomaterial synthesis and metabolomic analysis can lead to inconsistent results.
