Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Metabolomics has undergone a transformation in recent years, and much of its success can be attributed to rapid developments made in analytical techniques like nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Metabolomics has found applications in diverse areas, from establishing a fundamental understanding of altered metabolism in diseases like cancer to disease diagnosis using biomarkers and drug discovery.
The metabolomics study workflow can be divided into stages, including sample preparation, data collection, data analysis and metabolite and/or metabolic pathway identification. In this Special Issue, we focus on the advances made in these stages of the metabolomics workflow. Representative examples include, but are not limited to, (a) novel sample preparation approaches with enriched or selective isotope labelling for in-cell NMR studies; (b) advances in rapid data collection using one- or two-dimensional NMR experiments; (c) software and statistical techniques for analyzing data and identifying metabolites and mapping them to metabolic pathways; and (d) applications of NMR metabolomics in understanding diseases, biomarker discovery, and metabolic engineering

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. Metabolites 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 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.
