Special Issue on Metabolomics

Metabolomics is the scientific study of chemical processes involving metabolites. Specifically, metabolomics is the systematic study of the unique chemical fingerprints that specific cellular processes leave behind, the study of their small-molecule metabolite profiles. The metabolome represents the collection of all metabolites in a biological cell, tissue, organ or organism, which are the end products of cellular processes. Metabolic profiling can give an instantaneous snapshot of the physiology of the cell.

In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original researches and review articles on exploring metabolomics. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

• NMR metabolomics
• Mass spectrometry metabolomics
• Metabolic profiling
• Human metabolome
• Comparative metabolomics
• Functional metabolomics
• Nutrimetabolomics
• Environmental metabolomics

Authors should read over the journal’s For Authors carefully before submission. Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal’s Paper Submission System.

Please kindly notice that the “Special Issue” under your manuscript title is supposed to be specified and the research field “Special Issue – Metabolomics” should be chosen during your submission.

According to the following timetable:
