Assessment of metabolome annotation quality: a method for evaluating the false discovery rate of elemental composition searches.
BACKGROUND: In metabolomics researches using mass spectrometry (MS), systematic searching of high-resolution mass data against compound databases is often the first step of metabolite annotation to determine elemental compositions possessing similar theoretical mass numbers. However, incorrect hits...
