Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Mass spectrometry (MS) is now recognized as a standard bioanalytical technique with a wide range of applications in both quantitative and qualitative analysis. Due to its high sensitivity, specificity, and capability to provide faster results and rapid clinical feedback when coupled with other techniques, MS-based techniques are widely utilized in pharmaceutical research to elucidate the underlying pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and toxicity in various analytes, including new molecular entities, natural products, impurities, metabolites, and biomarkers.
This Special Issue of Molecules aims to update research trends in utilizing MS as a vital tool for both preclinical and clinical bioanalysis. We invite experts from the field to submit their original research work and reviews focusing on the development and application of quantitative and qualitative analysis MS methods.
