Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Mass spectrometry-based techniques are among the leading methods applied to characterize and quantify various biologically relevant small and large biomolecules such as sugars, lipids, proteins, and oligonucleotides. It is a rapidly developing, highly dynamic field. Novel developments are continuously added. Particularly, when combined with chromatographic and ion-mobility separation, mass spectrometry provides a method unrivaled by any other analytical method in terms of versatility, speed of sample analysis, and limits of detectability. This Special Issue aims to collect original research papers and review articles on novel developments in mass spectrometry-based techniques for biological analysis.
