Metabolomics researchers are often forced to choose between two powerful but different approaches. <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.thermofisher.com/content/lifetech/global/en/home/industrial/mass-spectrometry/metabolomics-lipidomics/metabolomics/untargeted-metabolomics.html">Untargeted metabolomics</a> is great for discovery: it surveys as many metabolites as possible to reveal biology you didn’t know to look for. <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.thermofisher.com/content/lifetech/global/en/home/industrial/mass-spectrometry/metabolomics-lipidomics/metabolomics/targeted-metabolomics.html">Targeted metabolomics</a> is built for precision: it measures a defined list of metabolites with high sensitivity and quantitative confidence. The challenge is that running both typically costs time, sample, and can introduce variability between workflows.In order to deal with this the researchers at Thermo Fisher Scientific have developed <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.thermofisher.com/content/lifetech/global/en/home/industrial/mass-spectrometry/metabolomics-lipidomics/simultaneous-quantitation-discovery-squad.html">Simultaneous Quantitation and Discovery (SQUAD)</a> analysis as shown in this technical note <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://lcms.labrulez.com/labrulez-bucket-strapi-h3hsga3/tn_004327_ov_squad_metabolomics_orbitrap_astral_tn004327_na_en_290c75edd9.pdf">Simultaneous Quantitation and Discovery Analysis: Combining Targeted and Untargeted Metabolomics on Orbitrap Mass Spectrometers</a>, a hybrid strategy that combines targeted quantitation and untargeted discovery in a single experiment. In practice, SQUAD lets you quantify a predefined metabolite panel using calibration curves built from authentic standards and isotopically labeled internal standards, while still capturing rich full-scan data that supports retrospective mining and identification of unknowns.A key theme of the technical note is that results are only as strong as the experiment design and quality controls. The workflow emphasizes calibration strategy, careful extraction choices (aligned to metabolite classes), and the smart use of blanks, pooled QCs, and system suitability tests to monitor drift, contamination, and reproducibility across a batch.SQUAD is also designed to scale across different Thermo Scientific Orbitrap mass spectrometers.
