Abstract
The complexity of the lipidome has necessitated the development of novel analytical approaches for the identification and structural analysis of morphologically diverse classes of lipids. At this time, a variety of dissociation techniques have been utilized to probe lipid decomposition pathways in search of structurally diagnostic fragment ions. Here, we investigate the application of surface-induced dissociation (SID), a fragmentation technique that imparts energy to the target molecule via collision with a coated surface, for the fragmentation of seven lipids across four major lipid subclasses. We have developed a tuning methodology for guiding the efficient operation of a previously developed custom SID device for molecules as small as ca. 300 Da with ion mobility analysis of the fragmentation products. SID fragmentation of the various lipids analyzed was found to generate fragment ions similar to those observed in CID spectra, but fragment ion lab frame onset energies were lower in SID due to the higher energy deposition via a more massive target. For the largest lipid evaluated (cardiolipin 18:1), SID produced chain fragment ions, which yielded analytically useful information regarding the composition of the acyl tails. Ion mobility provided an orthogonal dimension of separation and aided in assigning product ions to their precursors. Overall, the combination of SID and IM-MS is another potential methodology in the analytical toolkit for lipid structural analysis.

Abstract
Lipids are important biomarkers within the field of disease diagnostics and can serve as indicators of disease progression and predictors of treatment effectiveness. Although lipids can provide important insight into how diseases initiate and progress, mass spectrometric methods for lipid characterization and profiling are limited due to lipid structural diversity, particularly the presence of various lipid isomers. Moreover, the difficulty of handling small-volume samples exacerbates the intricacies of biological analyses. In this work, we have developed a strategy that electromigrates a thin film of a small-volume biological sample directly to the air-liquid interface formed at the tip of a theta capillary. Importantly, we seamlessly integrated in situ biological lipid extraction with accelerated chemical derivatization, enabled by the air-liquid interface, and conducted isomeric structural characterization within a unified platform utilizing theta capillary nanoelectrospray ionization mass spectrometry, all tailored for small-volume sample analysis. We applied this unified platform to the analysis of lipids from small-volume human plasma and Alzheimer's disease mouse serum samples. Accelerated electro-epoxidation of unsaturated lipids at the interface allowed us to characterize lipid double-bond positional isomers. The unique application of electromigration of a thin film to the air-liquid interface in combination with accelerated interfacial reactions holds great potential in small-volume sample analysis for disease diagnosis and prevention.

Abstract
Lipids are structurally diverse molecules that play a pivotal role in a plethora of biological processes. However, deciphering the biological roles of the specific lipids is challenging due to the existence of numerous isomers. This high chemical complexity of the lipidome is one of the major challenges in lipidomics research, as the traditional liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) based approaches are often not powerful enough to resolve these isomeric and isobaric nuances within complex samples. Thus, lipids are uniquely suited to the benefits provided by multidimensional liquid chromatography-ion mobility-mass spectrometry (LC-IM-MS) analysis. However, many forms of lipid isomerism, including double-bond positional isomers and regioisomers, are structurally similar such that their collision cross section (CCS) differences are unresolvable via conventional IM approaches. Here we evaluate the performance of a high resolution ion mobility (HRIM) system based on structures for lossless ion manipulation (SLIM) technology interfaced to a high resolution quadrupole time-of-flight (QTOF) analyzer to address the noted lipidomic isomerism challenge. SLIM implements the traveling wave ion mobility technique along an ∼13 m ion path, providing longer path lengths to enable improved separation of isomeric features. We demonstrate the power of HRIM-MS to dissect isomeric PC standards differing only in double bond (DB) and stereospecific number (SN) positions. The partial separation of protonated DB isomers is significantly enhanced when they are analyzed as metal adducts. For sodium adducts, we achieve close to baseline separation of three different PC 18:1/18:1 isomers with different cis-double bond locations. Similarly, PC 18:1/18:1 (cis-9) can be resolved from the corresponding PC 18:1/18:1 (trans-9) form. The separation capacity is further enhanced when using silver ion doping, enabling the baseline separation of regioisomers that cannot be resolved when measured as sodium adducts. The sensitivity and reproducibility of the approach were assessed, and the performance for more complex mixtures was benchmarked by identifying PC isomers in total brain and liver lipid extracts.

Abstract
Differential ion mobility spectrometry (FAIMS) had emerged in the 2000s as a novel tool for postionization separations in conjunction with mass spectrometry (MS). High-definition FAIMS introduced a decade ago has enabled resolution of peptide, lipid, and other molecular isomers with minute structural variations and recently the isotopic shift analyses where the spectral pattern for stable isotopes fingerprints the ion geometry. Those studies, including all isotopic shift analyses, were in the positive mode. Here, we achieve the same high resolution for anions exemplified by phthalic acid isomers. The resolving power and magnitude of isotopic shifts are in line with the metrics for analogous haloaniline cations, establishing high-definition negative-mode FAIMS with structurally specific isotopic shifts. Different shifts (including the new 18O) remain additive and mutually orthogonal, demonstrating the generality of those properties across the elements and charge states. Expanding to common (not halogenated) organic compounds is a key step toward the broad use of FAIMS isotopic shift methodology.

Abstract
The measurement of collision cross sections (CCS, σ) offers supplemental information about sizes and conformations of ions beyond mass analysis alone. We have previously shown that CCSs can be determined directly from the time-domain transient decay of ions in an Orbitrap mass analyzer as ions oscillate around the central electrode and collide with neutral gas, thus removing them from the ion packet. Herein, we develop the modified hard collision model, thus deviating from the prior FT-MS hard sphere model, to determine CCSs as a function of center-of-mass collision energy in the Orbitrap analyzer. With this model, we aim to increase the upper mass limit of CCS measurement for native-like proteins, characterized by low charge states and presumed to be in more compact conformations. We also combine CCS measurements with collision induced unfolding and tandem mass spectrometry experiments to monitor protein unfolding and disassembly of protein complexes and measure CCSs of ejected monomers from protein complexes.

Abstract
We had reported the isotopic envelopes in differential IMS (FAIMS) separations depending on the ion structure. However, this new approach to distinguish isomers was constrained by the unit-mass resolution commingling all nominally isobaric isotopologues. Here, we directly couple high-definition FAIMS to ultrahigh-resolution (Orbitrap) MS and employ the resulting platform to explore the FAIMS spectra for isotopic fine structure. The peak shifts therein for isotopologues of halogenated anilines with 15N and 13C (split by 6 mDa) in N2/CO2 buffers dramatically differ, more than for the 13C, 37Cl, or 81Br species apart by 1 or 2 Da. The shifts in FAIMS space upon different elemental isotopic substitutions are orthogonal mutually and to the underlying separations, forming fingerprint multidimensional matrices and 3-D trajectories across gas compositions that redundantly delineate all isomers considered. The interlocking instrumental and methodological upgrades in this work take the structural isotopic shift approach to the next level.

Abstract
The unambiguous identification of lipids is a critical component of lipidomics studies and greatly impacts the interpretation and significance of analyses as well as the ultimate biological understandings derived from measurements. The level of structural detail that is available for lipid identifications is largely determined by the analytical platform being used. Mass spectrometry (MS) coupled with liquid chromatography (LC) is the predominant combination of analytical techniques used for lipidomics studies, and these methods can provide fairly detailed lipid identification. More recently, ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) has begun to see greater adoption in lipidomics studies thanks to the additional dimension of separation that it provides and the added structural information that can support lipid identification. At present, relatively few software tools are available for IMS-MS lipidomics data analysis, which reflects the still limited adoption of IMS as well as the limited software support. This fact is even more pronounced for isomer identifications, such as the determination of double bond positions or integration with MS-based imaging. In this review, we survey the landscape of software tools that are available for the analysis of IMS-MS-based lipidomics data and we evaluate lipid identifications produced by these tools using open-access data sourced from the peer-reviewed lipidomics literature.

Abstract
Oxygenated polyunsaturated fatty acids (oxylipins) are bioactive molecules established as important mediators during inflammation. Different classes of oxylipins have been found to have opposite effects, e.g., pro-inflammatory prostaglandins and anti-inflammatory resolvins. Production of the different classes of oxylipins occurs during distinct stages of development and resolution of inflammation. Chronic inflammation is involved in the progression of many pathophysiological conditions and diseases such as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, insulin resistance, diabetes, and obesity. Determining oxylipin profiles before, during, and after inflammatory-related diseases could provide clues to the onset, development, and prevention of detrimental conditions. This review focusses on recent developments in our understanding of the role of oxylipins in inflammatory disease, and outlines novel technological advancements and approaches to study their action.

Abstract
Cancer and cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of death worldwide. Metabolic remodeling is a hallmark of both cancer and the failing heart. Tumors reprogram metabolism to optimize nutrient utilization and meet increased demands for energy provision, biosynthetic pathways, and proliferation. Shared risk factors for cancer and CVDs suggest intersecting mechanisms for disease pathogenesis and progression. In this review, we aim to highlight the role of metabolic remodeling in cancer and its potential to impair cardiac function. Understanding these mechanisms will help us develop biomarkers, better therapies, and identify patients at risk of developing heart disease after surviving cancer.

Abstract
Researchers worldwide are taking advantage of novel, commercially available, technologies, such as ion mobility mass spectrometry (IM-MS), for metabolomics and lipidomics applications in a variety of fields including life, biomedical, and food sciences. IM-MS provides three main technical advantages over traditional LC-MS workflows. Firstly, in addition to mass, IM-MS allows collision cross-section values to be measured for metabolites and lipids, a physicochemical identifier related to the chemical shape of an analyte that increases the confidence of identification. Second, IM-MS increases peak capacity and the signal-to-noise, improving fingerprinting as well as quantification, and better defining the spatial localization of metabolites and lipids in biological and food samples. Third, IM-MS can be coupled with various fragmentation modes, adding new tools to improve structural characterization and molecular annotation. Here, we review the state-of-the-art in IM-MS technologies and approaches utilized to support metabolomics and lipidomics applications and we assess the challenges and opportunities in this growing field.

Abstract
Metabolomics has become increasingly popular in recent years for many applications ranging from clinical diagnosis, human health to biotechnological questioning. Despite technological advances, metabolomic studies are still currently limited by the difficulty of identifying all metabolites, a class of compounds with great chemical diversity. Although lengthy chromatographic analyses are often used to obtain comprehensive data, many isobar and isomer metabolites still remain unresolved, which is a critical point for the compound identification. Currently, ion mobility spectrometry is being explored in metabolomics as a way to improve metabolome coverage, analysis throughput and isomer separation. In this review, all the steps of a typical workflow for untargeted metabolomics are discussed considering the use of an ion mobility instrument. An overview of metabolomics is first presented followed by a brief description of ion mobility instrumentation. The ion mobility potential for complex mixture analysis is discussed regarding its coupling with a mass spectrometer alone, providing gas-phase separation before mass analysis as well as its combination with different separation platforms (conventional hyphenation but also multidimensional ion mobility couplings), offering multidimensional separation. Various instrumental and analytical conditions for improving the ion mobility separation are also described. Finally, data mining, including software packages and visualization approaches, as well as the construction of ion mobility databases for the metabolite identification are examined.

Abstract
MOTIVATION Mass spectrometry-based untargeted lipidomics aims to globally characterize the lipids and lipid-like molecules in biological systems. Ion mobility increases coverage and confidence by offering an additional dimension of separation and a highly reproducible metric for feature annotation, the collision cross-section (CCS). RESULTS We present a data processing workflow to increase confidence in molecular class annotations based on CCS values. This approach uses class-specific regression models built from a standardized CCS repository (the Unified CCS Compendium) in a parallel scheme that combines a new annotation filtering approach with a machine learning class prediction strategy. In a proof-of-concept study using murine brain lipid extracts, 883 lipids were assigned higher confidence identifications using the filtering approach, which reduced the tentative candidate lists by over 50% on average. An additional 192 unannotated compounds were assigned a predicted chemical class.

Abstract
The structural diversity of phospholipids plays a critical role in cellular membrane dynamics, energy storage, and cellular signaling. Despite its importance, the extent of this diversity has only recently come into focus, largely owing to advances in separation science and mass spectrometry methodology and instrumentation. Characterization of glycerophospholipid (GP) isomers differing only in their acyl chain configurations and locations of carbon-carbon double bonds (C═C) remains challenging due to the need for both effective separation of isomers and advanced tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) technologies capable of double-bond localization. Drift tube ion mobility spectrometry (DTIMS) coupled with MS can provide both fast separation and accurate determination of collision cross section (CCS) of molecules but typically lacks the resolving power needed to separate phospholipid isomers. Ultraviolet photodissociation (UVPD) can provide unambiguous double-bond localization but is challenging to implement on the timescales of modern commercial drift tube time-of-flight mass spectrometers. Here, we present a novel method for coupling DTIMS with a UVPD-enabled Orbitrap mass spectrometer using absorption mode Fourier transform multiplexing that affords simultaneous localization of double bonds and accurate CCS measurements even when isomers cannot be fully resolved in the mobility dimension. This method is demonstrated on two- and three-component mixtures and shown to provide CCS measurements that differ from those obtained by individual analysis of each component by less than 1%.

Abstract
![]()
Coupling vibrational
ion spectroscopy with high-resolution ion
mobility separation offers a promising approach for detailed analysis
of biomolecules in the gas phase. Improvements in the ion mobility
technology have made it possible to separate isomers with minor structural
differences, and their interrogation with a tunable infrared laser
provides vibrational fingerprints for unambiguous database-enabled
identification. Nevertheless, wide analytical application of this
technique requires high-throughput approaches for acquisition of vibrational
spectra of all species present in complex mixtures. In this work,
we present a novel multiplexed approach and demonstrate its utility
for cryogenic ion spectroscopy of peptides and glycans in mixtures.
Since the method is based on Hadamard transform multiplexing, it yields
infrared spectra with an increased signal-to-noise ratio compared
to a conventional signal averaging approach.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Ion mobility-mass spectrometry is an emerging technology in the clinical setting for high throughput and high confidence molecular characterization from complex biological samples. Ion mobility spectrometry can provide isomer separations on the basis of molecular structure, the ability of which is increasing through technological developments that afford enhanced resolving power. Integrating multiple separation dimensions, such as liquid chromatography-ion mobility-mass spectrometry (LC-IM-MS) provide dramatic enhancements in the mitigation of molecular interferences for high accuracy clinical measurements. AREAS COVERED Multidimensional separations with LC-IM-MS provide better selectivity and sensitivity in molecular analysis. Mass spectrometry imaging of tissues to inform spatial molecular distribution is improved by complementary ion mobility analyses. Biomarker identification in surgical environments is enhanced by intraoperative biochemical analysis with mass spectrometry and holds promise for integration with ion mobility spectrometry. New prospects in high resolving power ion mobility are enhancing analysis capabilities, such as distinguishing isomeric compounds. EXPERT OPINION Ion mobility-mass spectrometry holds many prospects for the field of isomer identification, molecular imaging, and intraoperative tumor margin delineation in clinical settings. These advantages are afforded while maintaining fast analysis times and subsequently high throughput. High resolving power ion mobility will enhance these advantages further, in particular for analyses requiring high confidence isobaric selectivity and detection.

Abstract
Archaea are differentiated from the other two domains of life by their biomolecular characteristics. One such characteristic is the unique structure and composition of their lipids. Characterization of the whole set of lipids in a biological system (the lipidome) remains technologically challenging. This is because the lipidome is innately complex, and not all lipid species are extractable, separable, or ionizable by a single analytical method. Furthermore, lipids are structurally and chemically diverse. Many lipids are isobaric or isomeric and often indistinguishable by the measurement of mass or even their fragmentation spectra. Here we developed a novel analytical protocol based on liquid chromatography ion mobility mass spectrometry to enhance the coverage of the lipidome and characterize the conformations of archaeal lipids by their collision cross-sections (CCSs). The measurements of ion mobility revealed the gas-phase ion chemistry of representative archaeal lipids and provided further insights into their attributions to the adaptability of archaea to environmental stresses. A comprehensive characterization of the lipidome of mesophilic marine thaumarchaeon, Nitrosopumilus maritimus (strain SCM1) revealed potentially an unreported phosphate- and sulfate-containing lipid candidate by negative ionization analysis. It was the first time that experimentally derived CCS values of archaeal lipids were reported. Discrimination of crenarchaeol and its proposed stereoisomer was, however, not achieved with the resolving power of the SYNAPT G2 ion mobility system, and a high-resolution ion mobility system may be required for future work. Structural and spectral libraries of archaeal lipids were constructed in non-vendor-specific formats and are being made available to the community to promote research of Archaea by lipidomics.

Abstract
We demonstrate the utility of combining silicon nanopost arrays (NAPA) and trapped ion mobility imaging mass spectrometry (TIMS IMS) for high spatial resolution and specificity mapping of neutral lipid classes in tissue. Ionization of neutral lipid species such as triglycerides (TGs), cholestryl esters (CEs), and hexosylceramides (HexCers) from biological tissues has remained a challenge for imaging applications. NAPA, a matrix-free laser desorption ionization substrate, provides enhanced ionization efficiency for the above-mentioned neutral lipid species, providing complementary lipid coverage to matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization (MALDI). The combination of NAPA and TIMS IMS enables imaging of neutral lipid species at 20 μm spatial resolution while also increasing molecular coverage greater than 2-fold using gas-phase ion mobility separations. This is a significant improvement with respect to sensitivity, specificity, and spatial resolution compared to previously reported imaging studies using NAPA alone. Improved specificity for neutral lipid analysis using TIMS IMS was shown using rat kidney tissue to separate TGs, CEs, HexCers, and phospholipids into distinct ion mobility trendlines. Further, this technology allowed for the separation of isomeric species, including mobility resolved isomers of Cer(d42:2) (m/z 686.585) with distinct spatial localizations measured in rat kidney tissue section.

Abstract
Metabolomics and lipidomics are new drivers of the omics era as molecular signatures and selected analytes allow phenotypic characterization and serve as biomarkers, respectively. The growing capabilities of untargeted and targeted workflows, which primarily rely on mass spectrometric platforms, enable extensive charting or identification of bioactive metabolites and lipids. Structural annotation of these compounds is key in order to link specific molecular entities to defined biochemical functions or phenotypes. Tandem mass spectrometry (MS), first and foremost collision-induced dissociation (CID), is the method of choice to unveil structural details of metabolites and lipids. But CID fragment ions are often not sufficient to fully characterize analytes. Therefore, recent years have seen a surge in alternative tandem MS methodologies that aim to offer full structural characterization of metabolites and lipids. In this article, principles, capabilities, drawbacks, and first applications of these "advanced tandem mass spectrometry" strategies will be critically reviewed. This includes tandem MS methods that are based on electrons, photons, and ion/molecule, as well as ion/ion reactions, combining tandem MS with concepts from optical spectroscopy and making use of derivatization strategies. In the final sections of this review, the first applications of these methodologies in combination with liquid chromatography or mass spectrometry imaging are highlighted and future perspectives for research in metabolomics and lipidomics are discussed.

Abstract
The detection and unambiguous identification of anabolic-androgenic steroid metabolites are essential in clinical, forensic, and antidoping analyses. Recently, sulfate phase II steroid metabolites have received increased attention in steroid metabolism and drug testing. In large part, this is because phase II steroid metabolites are excreted for an extended time, making them a potential long-term chemical marker of choice for tracking steroid misuse in sports. Comprehensive analytical methods, such as liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), have been used to detect and identify glucuronide and sulfate steroids in human urine with high sensitivity and reliability. However, LC-MS/MS identification strategies can be hindered by the fact that phase II steroid metabolites generate nonselective ion fragments across the different metabolite markers, limiting the confidence in metabolite identifications that rely on exact mass measurement and MS/MS information. Additionally, liquid chromatography-high-resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS) is sometimes insufficient at fully resolving the analyte peaks from the sample matrix (commonly urine) chemical noise, further complicating accurate identification efforts. Therefore, we developed a liquid chromatography-ion mobility-high resolution mass spectrometry (LC-IM-HRMS) method to increase the peak capacity and utilize the IM-derived collision cross section (CCS) values as an additional molecular descriptor for increased selectivity and to improve identifications of intact steroid analyses at low concentrations.

Abstract
Regular consumption of adequate quantities of lipids rich in omega-3 fatty acids is claimed to provide a broad spectrum of health benefits, such as inhibiting inflammation, cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, arthritis, and ulcerative colitis. Lipids isolated from many marine sources are a rich source of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) in the omega-3 form which are claimed to have particularly high biological activities. Functional food products designed to enhance human health and wellbeing are increasingly being fortified with these omega-3 PUFAs because of their potential nutritional and health benefits. However, food fortification with PUFAs is challenging because of their low water-solubility, their tendency to rapidly oxidize, and their variable bioavailability. These challenges can be addressed using advanced encapsulation technologies, which typically involve incorporating the omega-3 oils into well-designed colloidal particles fabricated from food-grade ingredients, such as liposomes, emulsion droplets, nanostructured lipid carriers, or microgels. These omega-3-enriched colloidal dispersions can be used in a fluid form or they can be converted into a powdered form using spray-drying, which facilitates their handling and storage, as well as prolonging their shelf life. In this review, we provide an overview of marine-based omega-3 fatty acid sources, discuss their health benefits, highlight the challenges involved with their utilization in functional foods, and present the different encapsulation technologies that can be used to improve their performance.

Abstract
Ion mobility-mass spectrometry (IM-MS) experiments are mostly used hand in hand with computational chemistry to correlate mobility measurements to the shape of the ions. Recently, we developed an automatable method to fit IM data obtained with synthetic homopolymers (i.e., collision cross sections; CCS) without resorting to computational chemistry. Here, we further develop the experimental IM data interpretation to explore physicochemical properties of a series of nine polymers and their monomer units by monitoring the relationship between the CCS and the degree of polymerization (DP). Several remarkable points of the CCS evolutions as a function of the DP were found: the first observed DP of each charge state (ΔDPfirst DP), the DPs constituting the structural rearrangements (ΔDPrearr), and the DPs at the half-rearrangement (DPhalf-rearr). Given that these remarkable points do not rely on absolute CCS values, but on their relative evolution, they can be extracted from CCS or raw IM data without accurate IM calibration. Properties such as coordination numbers of the cations, steric hindrance, or side chain flexibility can be compared. This leads to fit parameter predictions based on the nature of the monomer unit. The interpretation of the fit parameters, extracted using solely experimental data, allows a rapid screening of the properties of the polymers.

Abstract
Ion mobility (IM) is a gas phase separation strategy that can either supplement or serve as a high-throughput alternative to liquid chromatography (LC) in shotgun lipidomics. Incorporating the IM dimension in untargeted lipidomics workflows can help resolve isomeric lipids, and the collision cross section (CCS) values obtained from the IM measurements can provide an additional molecular descriptor to increase lipid identification confidence. This chapter provides a broad overview of an untargeted ion mobility-mass spectrometry (IM-MS) workflow using a commercial drift tube ion mobility-quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometer (IM-QTOF) for high confidence lipidomics.

Abstract
Routine small-molecule analysis is challenging owing to the need for high selectivity and/or low limits of quantification. This work reports a liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method to quantify 14 antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) in human serum. For the optimized LC-MS/MS method described herein, we applied the guidelines outlined in the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) LC-MS C62-A document and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Bioanalytical Method Validation Guidance for Industry to evaluate the quality of the assay. In these studies, AED linearity, analyte recovery, matrix effects, precision, and accuracy were assessed. Using liquid chromatography-drift tube ion mobility-mass spectrometry (LC-DTIM-MS), a qualitative method was also used to increase confidence in AED identification using accurate mass and collision cross section (CCS) measurements. The LC-DTIM-MS method was also used to assess the ability of drift tube CCS measurements to aid in the separation and identification of AED structural isomers and other AEDs. These data show that another dimension of information, namely CCS measurements, provides an orthogonal dimension of structural information needed for AED analysis. Multiplexed AED measurements using LC-MS/MS and LC-DTIM-MS have the potential to enable better optimization of dosing owing to the high precision capabilities available in these types of analytical studies. Taken together, these data also show the ability to increase confidence in small-molecule identification and quantification using these analytical technologies.

Abstract
In recent years, cardiolipin (CL) oxidation products were recognized as potential markers for mitochondrial dysfunction in conjunction with age related diseases. The analysis of oxidized CL requires powerful analysis techniques due to high structural diversity. In addition, low concentrations of partly labile compounds pose a special challenge, supplemented by the occurrence of isomeric compounds, e.g., hydroperoxylated vs dihydroxylated products. Therefore, we present a hyphenated method based on liquid chromatography coupled to trapped ion mobility spectrometry (TIMS) for separation and tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) for structural characterization. This enables comprehensive analysis of an artificially oxidized CL extract of bovine heart. Isomeric oxidation products could be differentiated by mobility-resolved MS/MS fragmentation experiments. Our developed method could help to better understand the physiological role of oxidized CL.

Abstract
Spatial metabolomics is an emerging field of omics research that has enabled localizing metabolites, lipids, and drugs in tissue sections, a feat considered impossible just two decades ago. Spatial metabolomics and its enabling technology-imaging mass spectrometry-generate big hyper-spectral imaging data that have motivated the development of tailored computational methods at the intersection of computational metabolomics and image analysis. Experimental and computational developments have recently opened doors to applications of spatial metabolomics in life sciences and biomedicine. At the same time, these advances have coincided with a rapid evolution in machine learning, deep learning, and artificial intelligence, which are transforming our everyday life and promise to revolutionize biology and healthcare. Here, we introduce spatial metabolomics through the eyes of a computational scientist, review the outstanding challenges, provide a look into the future, and discuss opportunities granted by the ongoing convergence of human and artificial intelligence.

Abstract
Collision cross section (CCS) databases based on single-laboratory measurements must be cross-validated to extend their use in peak annotation. This work addresses the validation of the first comprehensive TWCCSN2 database for steroids. First, its long-term robustness was evaluated (i.e., a year and a half after database generation; Synapt G2-S instrument; bias within ±1.0% for 157 ions, 95.7% of the total ions). It was further cross-validated by three external laboratories, including two different TWIMS platforms (i.e., Synapt G2-Si and two Vion IMS QToF; bias within the threshold of ±2.0% for 98.8, 79.9, and 94.0% of the total ions detected by each instrument, respectively). Finally, a cross-laboratory TWCCSN2 database was built for 87 steroids (142 ions). The cross-laboratory database consists of average TWCCSN2 values obtained by the four TWIMS instruments in triplicate measurements. In general, lower deviations were observed between TWCCSN2 measurements and reference values when the cross-laboratory database was applied as a reference instead of the single-laboratory database. Relative standard deviations below 1.5% were observed for interlaboratory measurements (<1.0% for 85.2% of ions) and bias between average values and TWCCSN2 measurements was within the range of ±1.5% for 96.8% of all cases. In the context of this interlaboratory study, this threshold was also suitable for TWCCSN2 measurements of steroid metabolites in calf urine. Greater deviations were observed for steroid sulfates in complex urine samples of adult bovines, showing a slight matrix effect. The implementation of a scoring system for the application of the CCS descriptor in peak annotation is also discussed.

Abstract
Quantitative bottom-up shotgun lipidomics relies on molecular species-specific "signature" fragments consistently detectable in tandem mass spectra of analytes and standards. Molecular species of glycerophospholipids are typically quantified using carboxylate fragments of their fatty acid moieties produced by higher-energy collisional dissociation of their molecular anions. However, employing standards whose fatty acids moieties are similar, yet not identical, to the target lipids could severely compromise their quantification. We developed a generic and portable fragmentation model implemented in the open-source LipidXte software that harmonizes the abundances of carboxylate anion fragments originating from fatty acid moieties having different sn-1/2 positions at the glycerol backbone, length of the hydrocarbon chain, and number and location of double bonds. The postacquisition adjustment enables unbiased absolute (molar) quantification of glycerophospholipid species independent of instrument settings, collision energy, and employed internal standards.
