Bile acids (BAs) are essential signaling molecules that engage in host and gut microbial metabolism, playing a crucial role in maintaining organismal stability. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) is a widely employed technique for metabolite analysis in biological samples due to its high sensitivity, excellent specificity, and low detection limits. This method has emerged as the mainstream approach for the detection and analysis of BAs.
