Abstract
We report here that a straightforward change of the standard
derivatization procedure for GC-MS metabolomics is leading to a strong
increase in metabolite signal intensity. Drying samples between
methoxymation and trimethylsilylation significantly increased signals by
two- to tenfold in extracts of yeast cells, plant and animal tissue, and
human urine. This easy step reduces the cost of sample material and the
need for expensive new hardware.
