Unlocking the potential of natural products in drug discovery

28 March 2024 | By , ,

Natural products play an underappreciated role in drug discovery. Tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS)-based metabolomics coupled with machine learning is allowing new, highly diverse molecules from natural products to be identified, revealing bioactive compounds and pinpointing promising drug targets. The additional dimension provided by trapped ion mobility (TIMS) enables researchers to…
