Curr Opin Chem Biol 30 (2016), 7–13 The authors present a critical review on high-throughput MS-based platforms and their potential application in metabolomics. The authors review how MS platforms can now achieve very high throughputs and highlight that separation methods remain the bottle neck. The trade-off between sample throughput and metabolite coverage is reviewed in detail.
