Molecular Application of Mass Spectrometry and Chromatography in Biomedicine

Dear Colleagues,

Mass spectrometry and chromatography are revolutionizing medical research and diagnostics, delving deep into the intricate molecular landscapes of biological systems and uncovering crucial insights into the mechanisms of disease, the identification of biomarkers, drug metabolism, and personalized medicine.

In this Special Issue, by considering the field of Biomedicine, we wish to collect papers addressing the application of mass spectrometric techniques, whether used alone or in combination with chromatography, for the identification, quantification, or structural elucidation of biomolecules, including proteins, lipids, metabolites, and pharmaceutical compounds; this will enable the study of disease biomarkers, advance drug discovery, unveil potential health benefits, and enhance clinical diagnostics.

This Special Issue is supervised by Dr. Giovanni Ventura and assisted by our Topical Advisory Panel Member Dr. Mariachiara Bianco. We would like to invite you to contribute original articles or reviews related to approaches involving mass spectrometry and chromatography for biomedical application.

Dr. Giovanni Ventura
Guest Editor

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
