Each feature is given a confidence level from its SIRIUS evidence, and its top structure is matched to the microbial metabolite database (evidence tier, context and whether the compound is also in human metabolic pathways, as for spectra). The Microbial context page gives the source context of the top structures.

Confidence levels (Schymanski et al. 2014) from the SIRIUS evidence alone: 3, tentative structure: the CSI:FingerID top structure with a COSMIC confidence (exact mode) at or above the threshold; 4, molecular formula: the top SIRIUS formula with a ZODIAC score, or else a normalized SIRIUS score, at or above the threshold; 5, exact mass. In silico evidence gives no level 2 or 1: those need a reference spectrum or a reference standard.
