Review about bioinformatic tools for metabolomics

follow-up to my last posting: Today I was reading the review below and I found it amusing to read this:
"... However, the relatively low sensitivity of NMR, and the spectral overlap that often occurs, limits the number and variety of metabolites than can be simultaneously observed. Hyphenated mass spectrometry (MS) methods, such as GC-MS, LC-MS, and CE-MS, currently provide higher sensitivity, and are the leading analytical platform for metabolite profiling."
