Lipidomics Methods and Protocols

Analytical methods were selected from special issues and review papers published by LIPID MAPS® Consortium members, maintaining some of the traditional and introducing new ones with the latest technology and instrumentation. These protocols are specific to each lipid category but can be also applied to several types of biological matrices.
