AMDORAP: non-targeted metabolic profiling based on high-resolution LC-MS.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) utilizing the high-resolution power of an orbitrap is an important analytical technique for both metabolomics and proteomics. Most important feature of the orbitrap is excellent mass accuracy. Thus, it is necessary to convert raw data to accurate and reliable m/z values for metabolic fingerprinting by high-resolution LC-MS.

Results

In the present study, we developed a novel, easy-to-use and straightforward m/z detection method, AMDORAP. For assessing the performance, we used real biological samples, Bacillus subtilis strains 168 and MGB874, in the positive mode by LC-orbitrap. For 14 identified compounds by measuring the authentic compounds, we compared obtained m/z values with other LC-MS processing tools. The error
