Metabolomics enables the provision of sensitive bio-markers of disease. We performed 800 MHz (1)H-nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopic analyses of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) specimens to identify biomarkers of multiple sclerosis (MS), yielding reproducible detection of 15 metabolites from MS (n=15)
