Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Food safety has always been a focus. With the rapid development of social and economic development, people's living standards have gradually improved, and they have put forward higher requirements for food safety. To ensure the quality of food and protect people's health, we should actively develop efficient and fast analysis and testing techniques to ensure food safety. Traditional instrumental analysis methods have the shortcomings of expensive instrumentation, time-consuming and labor-intensive sample pre-treatment, and requiring specialized personnel to operate, which are not conducive to rapid on-site food safety testing. In recent years, with the intersection of different disciplines and various new technologies, more reliable and more accurate detection methods have been introduced. As a representative of the new technology, sensing analysis, due to its fast detection speed, high sensitivity, low cost, and easy miniaturization of equipment, provides new ideas and methods for food safety testing to adapt to the new situation of food safety problems. We are pleased to invite you to submit an article for publication in this Special Issue on the application of sensing analysis innovations in food safety testing, including novel sample pre-treatment techniques, novel recognition and signal amplification strategies, advanced functional materials, dual-mode sensors, microfluidics, microarray technology, visualization and portable analysis, and multi-residue 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. 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.
