Omics Analysis Services for Algae
Algae not only play an important ecological role but are also commercially important. Omics techniques can provide a comprehensive description of almost all components within algal cells, increasing our knowledge of their basic biological functions.
Lifeasible can provide professional omics analysis services for algae to help our clients understand the biological processes within the target algal cells.
Introduction to Omics
Omics is a research method in biology that aims to collectively characterize and quantify the biomolecular library of structure, function, and dynamics of an organism. In systems biology, the main goal is to develop a comprehensive and consistent understanding of biological systems by studying the behavior and interactions of their individual components.

Applications of Omics Analysis in Algae
The omics analysis of algae focuses on two aspects. One is the response of algae in the face of environmental stresses. The other is the accumulation of target substances when algae act as cell factories. The omics study of algae is useful to understand the dynamic molecular biological processes of algae.
Our Services
Lifeasible has a diverse platform that can support the omics analysis of individual components in algal cells, offering a wide range of omics analysis services for algae.
The genome contains much information about algae, and the sequencing and analysis of the algal genome facilitate the development of the genetic engineering of algae. Lifeasible can provide next-generation sequencing technology, genome assembly, and genomics analysis services.
Epigenetic modifications mainly contain DNA methylation and histone modifications which can be measured by HPLC and mass spectrometry methods. Lifeasible can provide professional epigenomics analysis services for algae.
Through DNA-chip and transcriptome sequencing (RNA-Seq), Lifeasible is able to perform preliminary data collection services and professional sequence evaluation, sequence alignment, and differential expression analysis of the algal transcriptome.
Proteomics focuses on the analysis of post-translational modifications of proteins. Through mass spectrometry, array-based proteomics studies, as well as protein structure and imaging, Lifeasible can provide professional proteomics analysis services for algae.
Lifeasible has a variety of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and mass spectrometry (MS) methods to provide targeted and non-targeted metabolomics analysis. Meanwhile, we have a professional team to perform statistical analysis of raw data.
The multi-omics analysis integrates the sum of various types of substances in algal cells. By analyzing the associated DEGs/DEPs, DEGs/DAMs, and DEPs/DAMs, Lifeasible can provide professional multi-omics analysis services for algae.
