Decoding Charge‑Site Isomerism in Flavonoids through Cyclic Ion Mobility–MS and Computational Modeling

Flavonoids are natural plant compounds that come in many very similar forms, which makes them hard to tell apart. In this study, researchers in the Chen lab used an advanced technique called cyclic ion mobility mass spectrometry to better separate and identify these look‑alike molecules.
