SUMMIT – Laboratoire CEISAM // CEISAM Institute

The SUMMIT team is developing new tools based on nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) to obtain information on complex biological questions in the areas of life, environmental, food and forensic sciences.

NMR is a cutting-edge technique that provides crucial information on molecules in biological samples at the atomic level. For instance, NMR can help finding new biomarkers of a certain pathology, or provide information on the authenticity of a food sample. In this context, SUMMIT is developing more sensitive and resolutive methods, that will be applied to a variety of biological questions.

Metabolomics, fluxomics and isotopomics show great promises towards tracking the origin of biomarkers in complex biological environments, in the areas of life, environmental, food and forensic sciences. NMR spectroscopy is a major cutting-edge analytical tool for such “omics” sciences thanks to its high quantitative and structure elucidation potential, and to its ability to access site-specific isotope content. ¹³C NMR plays a central role, but numerous applications are currently out of reach of ¹³C NMR due to its low sensitivity.

The SUMMIT team is developing a groundbreaking analytical workflow relying on two of the most powerful NMR methods: dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization and ultrafast 2D NMR. This approach will allow the simultaneous measurement of ¹³C fingerprints from multiple low-concentrated biomarkers molecules in complex mixtures, which is impossible with existing methods. The high potential of this analytical strategy will be demonstrated on a variety of relevant biological studies, through applications in metabolomics, fluxomics and isotopomics.
