Emerging Applications of Mass Spectrometry‐Based Metabolic Fingerprinting in Clinics
Jing Cao, Yuning Wang, Yong Zhang, Kun Qian
Abstract
A number of recently developed mass spectrometry (MS)‐based metabolic fingerprinting analyses are promoting metabolic analysis systems into practical clinical applications, including but not limited to disease diagnosis. Herein, recent cutting‐edge research on mass spectrometry‐based metabolic fingerprinting analytical methodology and clinical applications are described. These developments resolve challenges regarding the practical clinical applications of MS‐based metabolic fingerprinting analysis systems, such as rapid signal readout, high throughput and direct MS analysis, and intelligent data mining of complex biological samples.
