Advances in Food Chemistry

Dear Colleagues,

The scope of this Topic Collection is to cover the advances in the chemistry and biochemistry of food, including novel approaches and techniques applied to food analysis. The topics will include: (a) major and minor constituents of food, with respect to their (bio)chemical, microbiological, nutritional, (patho)physiological, toxicological, and sensorial aspects; (b) bioactive compounds in foods, including antioxidants and phytochemicals; (c) modification of food with respect to chemical composition, quality and safety, during processing, storage, and usage; (d) methods for the valorization of byproducts and wastes; (e) functional food and ingredients, with respect to their chemical, biological, physical, and organoleptic aspects.
