Collaboration Between Shimadzu, The Systems Biology Institute, and Osaka University Starting the Provision of an Open Platform Multi-omics Data Analysis Pack

On June 6, Shimadzu Corporation starts to provide, at no cost, the Shimadzu Multi-omics Data Analysis Pack. Intended for metabolic engineering, this gadget pack automatically visualizes large-volume of data sets from proteomics, metabolomics, and flux analysis, obtained using Shimadzu gas chromatograph mass spectrometers and liquid chromatograph mass spectrometers, on metabolic maps and perform a variety of data analyses. Multi-omics is a cutting-edge research area in the field of life sciences. It involves the integrated analysis of changes in genes, proteins, metabolites and other substances, towards a holistic elucidation of biological activities at cellular level. Multi-omics is expected to be useful in a variety of fields such as drug discovery, diagnostics, and biofuel research.
