Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Innovative analytical techniques are under constant development in the so-called OMICS research field, including metabolomics, lipidomics, volatilomics and proteomics, as well as in nutraceuticals and pharmaceutical studies.
In particular, it is of utmost importance to develop and optimize separation techniques, mainly based on the hyphenation of chromatography and mass spectrometry, with high selectivity, speed and coverage, for the identification and quantification of metabolites, lipids and proteins in biospecimens, for the characterization of natural products, and for the evaluation of pharmacokinetic and pharmacological properties of bioactive molecules.
Therefore, it is my pleasure to invite you to contribute a research article, communication, or review to this Special Issue dedicated to the development, validation, and application of original separation methods aimed at the qualitative–quantitative analysis of metabolites in the field of omics sciences, nutraceuticals, and pharmaceutical applications.

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. Separations is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). 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.
