ABSTRACT:

The inventory of lipid molecules found in blood plasma (plasma lipidome) offers insights
into individual metabolism and physiology in health and disease. Plasma lipidomics based on
mass spectrometry is an emerging tool in an array of clinical diagnostics and disease
management. However, the translation of laboratory-style methods towards robust,
quantitative tests that deliver comparable results across different analytical sites, with
appropriate turn-around times, will require considerable extra efforts. Here, I will highlight
state-of the art capabilities for monitoring blood lipids via mass spectrometry and provide a
perspective for translation of such technologies.
