Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Globalization includes not only commercial aspects but also microbiological aspects that have led to the geographical spread of bacterial-caused diseases traditionally confined to a certain region in the planet. Also, the use of many disinfection techniques has led to the increased resistance of bacteria to traditional chemicals. This Special Issue will offer an interdisciplinary forum for all researchers interested in antibacterial materials and technologies, ranging from novel nanostructures to innovative disinfection methods, as well as some molecular-based designs and analyses. Articles discussing all types of theoretical and applied aspects of antibactericides at a molecular level are welcome, and we expect to end up with a unique forum to not only report the most recent developments but also offer a prospective view of what developments the world could expect in this area.

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. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. 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.
