摘要

Metabolite identification in non-targeted mass spectrometry-based metabolomics remains a major challenge due to limited spectral library coverage and difficulties in predicting metabolite fragmentation patterns. Here, we introduce Multiplexed Chemical Metabolomics (MCheM), which employs orthogonal post-column derivatization reactions integrated into a unified mass spectrometry data framework. MCheM generates orthogonal structural information that substantially improves metabolite annotation through in silico spectrum matching and open-modification searches, offering a powerful new toolbox for the structure elucidation of unknown metabolites at scale.
