Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Antioxidants play a crucial role in protecting cells from damage caused by free radicals, which are unstable molecules known to contribute to the development of chronic diseases such as cancer and heart disease. Engineering antioxidants at the nanoscale introduces a range of potential advantages, including heightened bioavailability and stability, improved ability to traverse biological barriers and the possibility of enhancing antioxidant properties. These attributes make nanoantioxidants promising candidates for diverse applications across various sectors, including medicine, cosmetics, functional foods, etc. However, careful consideration of safety and toxicity implications is paramount before widespread implementation. This Special Issue aims to collect papers dealing with all aspects of antioxidants formulated as nanomaterials, in order to provide an updated overview of the state of the art, shedding light on their potential benefits, challenges and future directions.

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. Antioxidants 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 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.
