A new analytical strategy for biomarker recovery from directly coupled ultra-performance liquid chromatography time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC Tof MS) data on biofluids is presented and exemplified using a study on hydrazine-induced liver toxicity. A key step in the strategy involves a novel procedure for reducing the spectroscopic search space by differential analysis of cohorts of normal and pathological samples using an orthogonal projection to latent structures discriminant analysis (O-PLS-DA). This efficiently sorts principal discriminators of toxicity from the background of thousands of metabolic features commonly observed in data sets generated by UPLC-MS analysis of biological fluids and is thus a powerful tool for biomarker discovery.
