Bits & Bites #4: Quality Control and Quality Assurance (mQACC) from sample preparation to reporting
Short description of the course: For several years, an independent consortium of more than 100 metabolomic scientists has discussed and published best practice documents in metabolomics, from sample preparation and data acquisition (LC-MS, GC-MS, and NMR) to data processing and reporting, including for the use of reference materials and quality control samples. In this course, we will review the major conclusions of all mQACC reports and discuss strategies to utilize this information for data and manuscript submissions that require detailed descriptions of methods used in metabolomics studies. We will discuss if best-practice documents are clear enough for implementing strategies into standardized lab workflows, or where the community reports do not clearly distinguish quality differences between different strategies.

Bits & Bites #9: Compound ID in nontargeted analysis by integrating MS, MS/MS, retention time, and biological likelihood
Short description of the course: Metabolomics data can only be interpreted if metabolites are correctly identified. Confidence in metabolomic data reports requires a transparent strategy for combining different types of information. Accurate mass and MS/MS is often not sufficient, because many types of isomeric compounds exist. UC Davis offers Mass.Wiki to match user data against a standardized repository that includes retention time predictions and matches against biological specimens in UC Davis data, GNPS, MetabolomicsWorkbench, and MetaboLight repositories. After introductory remarks, participants will work in compound annotations, including for currently unidentified compounds that we explore in 'Fuzzy Searches'.

Participants will gain insights into LC-MS instrumentation, troubleshooting, and best practices for sample preparation, method development, and data analysis. Key topics include principles of sample preparation, quality management, method validation, selecting columns and solvents, optimizing gradients and flows, and employing DDA acquisition mode. Designed for researchers new to LC-MS or seeking to enhance their expertise, this course provides practical knowledge to improve the use of this powerful technique in metabolomics research.
