Technology and instrumentation
Untargeted analysis Our instrumentation for untargeted analysis, which can utilise either very little or no sample preparation, is highly selective. This allows for the separation of signals from closely related compounds in terms of mass, retention time, or fragmentation spectra. This is a powerful tool for those looking to analyse a sample…http://natural-sciences.nwu.ac.za/centre-human-metabolomics/meet-team
