The metabolome includes not just known but also unknown metabolites; however, metabolite annotation remains the bottleneck in untargeted metabolomics. Ion mobility – mass spectrometry (IM-MS) has emerged as a promising technology by providing multi-dimensional characterizations of metabolites. He...
Current metabolomics methods often miss low-abundance compounds and yield incomplete or ambiguous MS2 spectra, resulting in the presence of “dark matter” within the metabolome. Here, we introduce WT 2.0, which employs an all-ion stepwise fragmentation acquisition mode (ASFAM) to acquire comprehe...
