Lipid Analysis and Lipidomics offers the lipid analyst essential analytical tools in the fields of chromatography, mass spectrometry, spectroscopy, magnetic resonance, and chemometrics.

New methods for the analysis of edible oils, fats, and cellular lipids, as well as new applications, have recently been developed. This book is a reference for all these recent developments, and presents and critically reviews the rapidly evolving field of lipid methodologies.

These new methods and applications apply to biological and food matrices, edible oils and fats as well as cellular fats of pathogenic bacteria and spores cover many research applications in lipidomics, food analysis, food safety, food security, and counter-terrorism.
