Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Instrumental Chemistry represents an important aspect in the analysis of foods and food by-products during production, transformation, and preservation due to the numerous interactions and modifications that can be generated. The use of analytical techniques and the development of new methods have a central role in the definition of the characteristics of foods but also in the development of new ingredients, food products, and technologies preserving their quality. Research is, in fact, increasingly focused on defining aspects concerning the composition, structure, physicochemical properties, thermal characteristics, and stability of food products through analytical techniques such as gas chromatography (GC) and liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled with mass spectrometry (MS), atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS), and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR). This Special Issue is intended to collect high-quality manuscripts on research related to the Application of Instrumental Chemistry in Food Analysis.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Foods is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2900 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
