Abstract:Technical advances in LC–MS hardware instrumentation and in data analysis software tools have enabled the routine implementation of comprehensive metabolite studies in many biological laboratories. In this chapter, we describe the current types of MS instruments and corresponding applications. LC–MS systems can be coupled to UV or fluorescence detectors and even spatial resolution of metabolic distribution (MALDI‐imaging) is feasible to gain valuable additional information.
LC–MS applications usually… Show more
