%X We report here that a straightforward change of the standard derivatization procedure for GC¨CMS 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. View Full-Tex
