Open Access Lipidomics

 Lipidomics is a large-scale study of cell lipid pathways and networks in biological systems. The term "lipidome" is used to define the complete lipid profile within a cell , tissue, organism or ecosystem and is a subset of "metabolome" and also includes the other three main groups of biological molecules: proteins / amino acids, carbohydrates and nucleic acids. Researchers on lipidomics study the structures, functions, interactions, and mechanisms of cell lipids and changes that occur during system disturbance. Top-open access articles are freely accessible on the public internet domain, allowing any end-user to read, download, copy, distribute, print, scan or connect to the full text of the articles. They have high quality, closely reviewed and timely publication to meet the insistent needs of the scientific community. Open Access papers are instantly and freely accessible on their website, a model funded largely by fees charged by the author. The option for a researcher is to publish in a traditional journal, where only readers have immediate access, but to make the article accessible on their personal and/or institutional websites, a practice that many scholarly journals require. Open Access poses practical and policy issues for academics, publishers, funders and decision-makers alike. A journal is a daily publication intended to further advance research, usually by reporting on new work.
