Which Method is Most Commonly Used in Metabolomics

Question

Which method is most commonly used in metabolomics?
A) ion torrent semiconductor sequencing
B) mass spectrometry
C) 2D polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis
D) Sanger method

Accepted Answer

Mass spectrometry is currently the most commonly used method in metabolomics due to its high sensitivity and accuracy in detecting and quantifying metabolites. Ion torrent semiconductor sequencing and Sanger methods are DNA sequencing techniques, while 2D polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis is a protein separation technique and may be used in proteomics, but is not the most commonly used method in metabolomics.
