Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The combination of liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry (LC-MS) has been one of the widely used tools of analysis for both chemists and biologists alike for a while now. However, one of the bottlenecks in LC-MS analysis is the lack of available standard methods for assay development (lipids, etc.). This Issue will try to address this by providing a collection of peer-reviewed articles that address LC-MS-related method development for small molecules, both pharmaceutical (drug development, DMPK, toxicology, bio-fluid samples, etc.) and chemical (food science, environmental samples, exposomics etc.) in origin as well as large molecules (e.g., proteins) that are of importance to the biological community and others. The topics of consideration will be method development (involving sample preparation and LC-MS/MS experiments) for analytes related to biomarkers, proteins, antibodies, lipids, nucleic acids, peptides, polymers, peptoids, carbohydrates, natural products, organometallics, small molecules, lichens, drug candidates, pesticides, terpenoids, cannabinoids, forensics, toxicology, and food science for: 1) The discovery of target analytes; 2) Identification and quantitation; 3) Structure elucidation; and 4) Reactivity.

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. 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.
