Modern Trends and Solutions in Analytical Chemistry in Poland

Dear Colleagues,

I warmly invite you to submit your original contributions to this Special Issue, especially scientists for whom analytical chemistry is a specialty that constitutes one of the basic tools used in their professional work. I also cordially invite Polish scientists working outside their homeland.

This Special Issue of Molecules welcomes manuscripts describing original work, as well as review articles.

In contemporary society, analytical chemistry, as a scientific discipline, and its practical application, often termed “analysis”, has many important aims, and its role is becoming increasingly important. The key challenge for analysts is to develop effective and validated analytical strategies for the analysis of various compounds that are the subject of our research and interest, in different types of sample, quickly, accurately, and at an acceptable cost. The most efficient approach to this involves the use of modern chromatographic methods.

This Special Issue presents, in a properly structured manner, up-to-date, state-of-the-art information on the very important solutions and new trends in analytical chemistry.

High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography (UPLC), gas chromatography (GC), two-dimensional chromatographic techniques (GC x GC, LC x LC), and other separation techniques coupled with modern detection techniques such as mass spectrometry (MS), tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS), fluorescence detection (FLD), and diode-array detection (DAD) are most frequently applied in bio-analytics, proteomics, metabolomics, lipidomics, food analysis, the analysis of natural products, and xenobiotics analysis in environmental, biological and food samples, amongst others. Chromatographic methods and related techniques are also applied in other various specialties, fields, and disciplines of science, e.g., oceanography, forensics, or confirming the authenticity of works of art and studies of their forgeries.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

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-anonymized peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Molecules 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 2700 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.
