Chromatographic Analysis of Biological Samples

Dear Colleagues,

In recent years, there has been a rapidly growing demand for the analysis of biological materials and samples. Biomedical samples and materials are particularly important in this respect. For the processing, separation, and concentration of analytes, chromatographic and electromigration techniques are most often used, with particular emphasis on liquid chromatography, gas chromatography, ion chromatography or capillary electrophoresis. The identification of very low-level concentrations of analytes in biological samples is often critical for the correct diagnosis of patients and the programming of the correct treatment.

This Special Issue invites contributions on the current advances in and application of chromatographic separation and analytical techniques used for identification and quantification of critical analytes in biological samples.

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-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.
