Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Food safety is a major strategic issue related to people's livelihood. Food residues are an important cause of food safety problems. Therefore, the quantitative analysis of food residues is particularly important as a means to ensure food safety. The sensitive and accurate quantitative analysis of food residues is challenging due to the complexity of food sample matrices and the rapid requirements of food safety testing. Advanced functional materials are a class of materials with special magnetic, optical, and electrical properties that can be used in conjunction with food analysis techniques to achieve the sensitive and reliable quantitative analysis of food residues. For example, advanced functional materials can be combined with chromatographic, spectroscopic and electrochemical techniques to make the quantitative analysis of food residues easier, faster, more accurate and more sensitive. This Special Issue aims to collect the latest advances in the development and application of advanced functional materials in the quantitative analysis of food residues.

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. Molecules 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 2700 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.
