ince 1949, Analytical Chemistry has published annual reviews. We believe that the publication of authoritative and critical reviews stimulates the dynamic growth of measurement science, and we offer these reviews as a service in support of the professional activities of our readers. Historically, the reviews have offered comprehensive coverage of core areas in the field. However, effective electronic search engines now offer year round access to relevant references and comprehensive literature searches. Consequently, 3 years ago we began to invite and publish critical reviews that address selected cutting edge areas. This year our publisher, the American Chemical Society, is making Analytical Chemistry’s special review issue (January 7, 2014) freely available to the public, accessible to readers without subscriptions, at http:// pubs.acs.org/toc/ancham/86/1. We are pleased to offer 16 authoritative critical reviews of topics of both fundamental and applied interest to analytical chemists. These include discussions of innovations and advances in spectroscopy and imaging, solid and liquid state NMR, ambient ionization mass spectrometry, micro total analysis systems, sensors, imprinted polymers, and ionic liquids. Our authors provide critical updates of approaches to the study of single nanoparticles, biomolecular dynamics, lipidomics, metabolomics, proteomics, and oligosaccharides. Finally, this review issue introduces analytical perspectives on the detection of genetically modified organisms in food and feed and on theranostics in personalized medicine. We hope that you will enjoy this special issue and find articles of value. We thank the authors who have contributed their energy, experience, and knowledge to advance and guide our field.
