BEFORE YOU BEGIN

Questions to clarify before choosing a system.

Can untargeted research directly identify every molecule by name?

Results generally require feature extraction, database matching, fragment interpretation, and other validation steps. The actual identification level depends on data quality, analytical methods, and available evidence.
