Mass Spectrometry-Based Metabolomics A Practical Guide

"This compact reference is sure to become a standard in the libraries of researchers profiling metabolites. Although mass spectrometry-based metabolomics studies can be challenging to researchers who do not specialize in the field, this book makes the technology accessible to researchers in a variety of fields. The book includes helpful tips and tricks for three different disciplines- biology, analytic chemistry and informatics- and six different sample types-urine, serum, blood, tissue, food and plant/animal cells. Included is information on every step of the process from experimental design through sample preparation and analytical procedures to data analysis."
