ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a marker that can be used as aging biomarker. More specifically, the present invention relates to the analysis of N-glycans in serum and its relation to the virtual age of the subject. This aging biomarker can be used to study the effect of medication, food compounds and/or special diets on the wellness and virtual age of animals, including humans.
