Diabetes and Obesity Research Tools Metabolic control requires balance between energy intake, utilization, and storage. Diabetes and obesity are twinning epidemics that arise from certain metabolic imbalances. Cayman offers a range of biochemical tools and assay kits to assist researchers in their work to better understand the molecular underpinnings of these diseases.
