What the paper reports

An integrated workflow combined MicroED with high-resolution mass spectrometry, database searches, solution and solid-state NMR, and computational calculations. Demonstrations used a pyridoxine–N-acetyl-L-cysteine salt and the peptide fMLF. The approach addressed molecular identity, crystal packing, light-atom assignment, and hydrogen positions, illustrating how complementary measurements can resolve ambiguities that electron diffraction alone may leave in nanocrystalline powders.

Why this paper is included

Provides a realistic multi-technique strategy for salts and unknown powders where a plausible electron-diffraction model still requires chemical and spectroscopic validation.

The interpretation above is analysis, not a conclusion attributed to the original source.
