Ionomics: Advanced Molecular Profiling

Ionomics quantifies the elemental composition of organisms, measuring all metal ions and minerals. ~30 elements are essential for life (Fe, Zn, Cu, Se, etc.), while others are toxic (Pb, Cd, Hg, As). Ion dysregulation causes anemia, Wilson disease, hemochromatosis, and neurodegenerative diseases.
