Unlocking a Greater Perspective: Mapping the Chemical Space of Biomes Using Sirius
Untargeted mass spectrometry is a powerful tool for analyzing the immense chemical complexity of natural environments. However, interpreting such large datasets remains a significant challenge. To overcome this, researchers have developed an innovative approach using SIRIUS that prioritizes chemical profiling over exhaustive identification. This method allows for more effective comparisons of (micro-)biomes, providing deeper insights into biochemical diversity across different environments.
