title: Analytical Lipidomics in Metabolic and Clinical Research.
abstract: Lipidomic analysis, which enables comprehensive characterization of molecular lipids in biological systems, is rapidly becoming an essential tool in biomedical research. While lipidomics already have contributed to several conceptual advances in metabolic research and led to new, validated disease biomarkers, its translation into the clinic remains a challenge.
