脂質化學與物理出版脂質化學與物理方面的研究論文和評論文章，主要強調這些性質與生物功能和生物醫學應用的關系。因此，該雜志包括:合成和分析脂質方法學的進展;質譜儀的脂質;孤立結構的化學和物理特性;脂質體的熱力學、相行為、拓撲結構和動力學;脂質與脂質、脂蛋白相互作用的物理化學研究脂質在膜內、膜間和膜間的運動;細胞內脂質轉移;脂質衍生第二信使的結構-功能關系及其性質自由基誘導的脂質化學、物理和功能的改變;細胞、組織、體液中脂質過氧化的酶促和非酶促機制氧化lipidomics;以及脂質在調控膜依賴生物過程中的作用。每期將考慮發表評論、全文和簡短的通訊。特刊將包括為涵蓋特定主題而組織和編輯的邀請投稿。

Chemistry and Physics of Lipids publishes research papers and review articles on chemical and physical aspects of lipids with primary emphasis on the relationship of these properties to biological functions and to biomedical applications.Accordingly, the journal covers: advances in synthetic and analytical lipid methodology; mass-spectrometry of lipids; chemical and physical characterisation of isolated structures; thermodynamics, phase behaviour, topology and dynamics of lipid assemblies; physicochemical studies into lipid-lipid and lipid-protein interactions in lipoproteins and in natural and model membranes; movement of lipids within, across and between membranes; intracellular lipid transfer; structure-function relationships and the nature of lipid-derived second messengers; chemical, physical and functional alterations of lipids induced by free radicals; enzymatic and non-enzymatic mechanisms of lipid peroxidation in cells, tissues, biofluids; oxidative lipidomics; and the role of lipids in the regulation of membrane-dependent biological processes.Reviews, full articles and short communications will be considered for publication in each issue. Special Issues will consist of invited contributions organized and edited to cover specific themes.
