Abstract:
1. A method of profiling a state of a biological system in an animal, the method comprising: evaluating with a suitably programmed computer a plurality of data sets with a multivariate analysis and correlating spectral features to generate a profile of one or more biomarkers in response to one or more correlations, the profile characterizing a state of the biological system, wherein the multivariate analysis comprises principal component analysis, and the plurality of data sets comprise at least two different types of spectrometric measurements of a sample of a biological system, wherein the spectrometric measurements are from more than one spectrometric technique comprising mass spectrometry, nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometry, liquid chromatography, gas chromatography, high performance liquid chromatography, or capillary electrophoresis; and displaying at least a portion of data relevant to the profile.
