“…The limitations of these methods include the need for derivatization, their limited resolution, and the time required [8]. Recently, mass spectrometry (MS) has proven to be a powerful analytical technique for the structural identification and discrimination of natural products because of its advantages in terms of sensitivity, specificity, and speed [12], [13], [14], [15], [16], [17], [18]. In past decades, MS-based methods for isomer differentiation have undergone great development and have been applied in organic chemistry [19], [20], [21], phytochemistry [22], [23], [24], and lipidomics [25], [26].…”
