Bruker’s Molecular Phenomics Research Tools Enable New Insights into ‘Long COVID’ and Post-Acute Metabolic Abnormalities on May 21 2021 12:12 AM Australian National Phenome Centre Integrates Quantitative NMR and MS Assay Platform for Risk Assessment and Longitudinal Monitoring of Post-Acute COVID-19 Syndrome (PACS) PERTH, Australia--(BUSINESS WIRE)--A clinical research collaboration on COVID-19 pheno-conversion and subsequent pheno-reversion has discovered transient and persistent systemic changes of the molecular signatures in patient blood samples three months after the acute COVID-19 disease phase. These biochemical abnormalities, identified by a quantitative, label-free assay platform integrating nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and mass spectrometry (MS), relate to ongoing ‘long COVID’ symptoms, which persist post-acute infection and can affect more than half of the recovered COVID patients - even six months after infection.
