Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Mass spectrometry metrology is a critical aspect of the pharmaceutical industry as it enables the precise and accurate measurement of drug compounds, metabolites, and impurities. This technology plays a vital role in drug discovery, pharmacokinetics, and clinical research, making it an essential tool for pharmaceutical scientists.
The Special Issue of Pharmaceuticals aims to showcase the latest developments in mass spectrometry metrology, including new techniques, instrumentation, and data analysis methods. This Special Issue will feature research articles, reviews, and communications that highlight the advancements and applications of mass spectrometry in pharmaceutical sciences.
We invite you to submit original research and review articles addressing advances in mass spectrometry metrology in its application to the pharmaceutical industry to be published in this Special Issue of Pharmaceuticals. Proposed topics related to the general theme include, but are not limited to, improved techniques for sensitivity, new datamining algorithms to search for metabolites, new technologies for the ionization of pharmaceuticals, and trace analysis of pharmaceuticals in un-dosed populations.
Yours sincerely,
Dr. Andrew P. Bowman
Prof. Rob J. Vreeken
