Mass Spectrometry Analysis II

Dear Colleagues,

Mass spectrometry has been widely used in analytical chemistry and bioanalytical chemistry. During the last few decades, there have been many developments in various aspects of mass spectrometry, including ionization methods, new principles and technology in mass analyzers, sample preparation methods, and data analysis algorithms. Such developments push mass spectrometry towards the frontier of various omics studies (e.g., proteomics, metabolomics, and lipidomics) and towards the solution of many complex questions in food science, forensic science, medical study, health and nutrition science, etc. This Special Issue will focus on mass-spectrometry-based analyses and bioanalyses. Suggested topics include, but are not limited to, the following:

(1) New developments in ionization methods;

(2) New principles and technology in mass analyzers;

(3) Artificial intelligence for mass spectrometry data analyses;

(4) Application of mass spectrometry in food science and food safety control;

(5) Mass spectrometry in clinical diagnoses and biomedical studies;

(6) Mass spectrometry in forensic science and testing;

(7) Mass spectrometry imaging;

(8) Mass-spectrometry-based omics.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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-anonymized peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Molecules is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2700 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.
