INTRODUCTION: The biochemical diversity of flavonoids is based on glycosylation, methylation, acylation, and many other modifications of the flavonoid backbone. Liquid chromatography coupled to high-resolution mass spectrometry demonstrated to be a powerful approach to gain new i...
While analytical techniques in natural products research massively shifted to liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry, lichen chemistry remains reliant on limited analytical methods, Thin Layer Chromatography being the gold standard. To meet the modern standards of metabolomics within lichenochem...
The development of improved spectrometers and supporting computational tools is expected to eventually enable the rapid annotation of whole metabolomes. However, rarely are novel mass spectrometers directly compared to the previously used ones in the field of metabolomics, thus preventing researc...
Mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) in sedimentary archives can produce records of molecular proxies at μm-scale resolution. For example, in annually varved sediments of the Santa Barbara Basin, such a fine resolution allows deciphering sub-annual distributions of archaeal tetraether lipids, haptophy...
