Advanced facilities supporting the development and validation of precision nutrition strategies for personalised health and healthy ageing.

 

A space to explore the relationship between food and health

NutriHealth Corner is a facility designed and developed by AZTI to assess nutritional and health biomarkers, study individual responses to diet, and generate scientific evidence to support more personalised nutritional interventions.

It combines dedicated spaces for welcoming and assessing volunteers with technologies for molecular analysis and physiological measurement. These capabilities will complement AZTI’s existing omics technologies, providing a more comprehensive picture of each person’s nutritional and metabolic status.

 

Features
  • Dedicated facilities for studies involving volunteers, with reception areas and spaces equipped with sensor technologies for participant assessment.
  • Nuclear magnetic resonance technology to analyse metabolites and study the transformation of compounds related to food and health.
  • Non-invasive measurement systems for quick and comfortable assessment of participants’ physiological parameters.
  • Molecular and genomic analysis equipment to study the microbiome and other biomarkers associated with nutrition, metabolism and healthy ageing.

 

Main applications
  • Characterising individual nutritional and metabolic profiles by integrating information on metabolism, lipids and the microbiome.
  • Assessing responses to diet and nutritional interventions by combining molecular information with physiological parameters.
  • Studying metabolites and bioactive compounds to understand how they are transformed under controlled conditions.
  • Supporting the development of functional foods and supplements by generating knowledge about how their components behave.
  • Conducting research into precision nutrition and healthy ageing in collaboration with healthcare organisations, the food industry and technology centres.
