Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue focuses on the application of spectral analysis in alcoholic beverages. As the demand for fast and integrated analysis continues to grow, advancements in spectral analysis present great potential while also meeting green chemistry requirements. This Special Issue aims to provide a platform for cutting-edge research and innovation in spectral analysis concerning alcoholic beverages. The primary aims of this Special Issue are as follows:

  • The combination of spectral techniques.
  • The integration of results: assessing more than one parameter or providing a holistic approach in alcoholic beverage assessment.
  • Advancements in data processing and statistical analysis of spectra.
  • Modellization and parameter prediction aspects.
  • Robustness and reliability: emphasizing the importance of robust model development using validation and test datasets.
  • Emerging techniques and trends.

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. Applied Sciences 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 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.

The growing concern regarding the authenticity of wine and wine byproducts, particularly in terms of their origin and grape varieties, is of great importance to both consumers and the wine industry. Verifying the accuracy of information presented on labels is crucial for this sector, as regulatory frameworks strictly govern the veracity of claims made to consumers. This concern has driven the development and application of innovative analytical methods, such as spectroscopic techniques, which utilize different wavelengths of the electromagnetic spectrum, including the visible (Vis), ultraviolet (UV), and infrared (IR) regions. This review aims to highlight the importance of understanding a wine’s unique fingerprint. To achieve this, it will explore various analytical methods used to verify the authenticity of consumer information, assess the composition of grapes and wine, and discuss the statistical techniques employed to extract valuable insights from the resulting datasets.
