Title: Overcoming the isomers challenge during metabolite identification by LC-MS technique

During metabolomics studies, metabolite identification is the most challenging step, requiring in depth understanding of molecular structures. Despite the obvious challenges posed by unknown compounds, isomeric compounds present undisputed analytical challenges. Techniques such as LC-MS and NMR have been used in combination or independently for identification of novel compounds. LC-MS is a powerful technique which exploits the resolution power of the LC technology and the sensitivity and accuracy of the MS detector. As such, LC-MS has been widely applied in the field of metabolomics.
