Discovery-based small molecule research has re-emerged as a key sector due to the creation and expansion of many routine applications. Targeted screening and quantitative workflows may only profile a fraction of the sample-specific compounds, potentially missing critical factors, whether this means limited coverage of metabolites and degradants, outstanding unknown or unexpected pesticides, or the misidentification or characterization of natural products that could potentially provide health benefits.
This application-based eBook provides an overview of the experimental requirements and goals for a diverse subset of small molecule applications, including how the Thermo Scientific Orbitrap ID-X workflow is designed to adapt for maximum performance and efficiency, regardless of the sample type.
