Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to invite you to contribute to this Special Issue titled “Synthesis and Molecular Applications of Nanomaterials”. The diverse applications of various nanomaterials (including metal oxide, metal, polymeric, and lipidic-based types, among others) stem from their exceptional size-dependent properties. These applications also depend on synthesis methodologies, making it essential to develop new, facile procedures for preparing nanostructures to enhance their future utility.
Regarding the molecular applications of these nanomaterials, those related to nanomedicine are particularly noteworthy. These include the quantitative analysis of pharmaceutical and biologically relevant molecules, the targeted transport and controlled release of these chemical species, and emerging therapies for various diseases. Similarly, the use of nanomaterials in environmental remediation is prominent, encompassing the development of sensitive and selective methods for contaminant detection and their effective removal from the environment.
This Special Issue welcomes original research articles and critical reviews focused on the synthesis and molecular aspects of nanoparticles.

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.
