Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Food and drug analysis is a diverse and interdisciplinary research area that significantly impacts public health and the economy.
Recent advances in analytical techniques, including chromatography and spectroscopy, have vastly contributed to the accurate and precise analysis of food and drugs. These techniques have been used in various stages in the food and drug industries. Primary spectroscopic techniques revolve around mass spectrometry (MS), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), infrared (IR), and ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis). Major chromatographic techniques include gas chromatography (GC), high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), thin-layer chromatography (TLC), and paper chromatography.
This Special Issue of Processes entitled the “Application of Spectroscopy and Chromatography in Food and Drug Analysis and Characterization” aims to publish high-quality research exploring the methods used for food characterization, food adulteration detection, drug characterization and impurity profiling, and drug detection in biological samples. Reviews and original research articles related to the sample preparation, separation, and detection of food and drugs are welcome.

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. Processes is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2400 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.
