[Chemical exposome and non-targeted approaches]
Exposome chimique et approches « non ciblées »
Résumé
The technological advances in high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS), associated with the development of bioinformatics tools, allows the simultaneous detection of tens of thousands of chemical signals in biological matrices, including exogenous (i.e. xenobiotics) and endogenous molecules. These novel approaches based on HRMS, called "non-targeted" approaches, provide a unique opportunity to capture exposures to a wide range of chemicals (i.e. the internal chemical exposome) in populations, and to better understand the links between chemical exposures and the occurrence of chronic diseases.
