Technological developments in lipidomics.

چکیده
Lipid analysis is a well-established field of research that focuses on one lipid or a few lipids. The recent developments in mass spectrometry technologies have enabled more comprehensive studies to be performed on lipids present in a sample. The move towards extensive lipid research has led to the coining of the term lipidomics, which is defined as the ensemble of lipids present in a sample. In this review, we will discuss the technical developments in the field of lipidomics and the current limitations of this nascent field.

One decade after the genomic and the proteomic life science revolution, new 'omics' fields are emerging. The metabolome encompasses the entity of small molecules-Most often end products of a catalytic process regulated by genes and proteins-with the lipidome being its fat soluble subdivision. Within recent years, lipids are more and more regarded not only as energy storage compounds but also as...
