Studies

Each study has its own interactive page, and every metabolite has a MetaBó-Card that joins the studies together.

Diet study

Pasture proportion in the diet

How the share of grazed pasture in the cow's diet and the season of the year shape the milk metabolome.

Seasonality of the pasture-based milk metabolome

The milk metabolome of Irish seasonal pasture-based dairy systems across the production year: 533 milk samples over 41 weeks.

38 metabolites · 10 months

Do the two studies agree on season?

Each dot is a metabolite measured in both studies, plotted by how much it changed from early to late in the year. Dots near the dashed diagonal moved the same way, by a similar amount, in both. Correlation r = 0.83 across 29 metabolites.
