  "term": "Metabolomics",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "The systematic study of the complete set of small-molecule metabolites within a biological system. This field involves the identification and quantification of metabolites, aiming to understand the metabolic processes and their changes in response to genetic modifications, environmental factors, or disease. Analytical techniques like mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy are central to metabolomics.",
