As drug candidates become increasingly complex, metabolite identification workflows must deliver greater sensitivity and structural clarity. Traditional mass spectrometry techniques may struggle to retain fragile molecular modifications, creating uncertainty that can slow interpretation or require additional analysis.
Selecting the appropriate analytical solution requires balancing sensitivity, structural insight, and operational demands. This guide provides a practical framework for evaluating liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC-MS) options for established, trace-level, and structurally complex metabolite identification studies.
