Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Consumers’ concern about the safety and healthiness of food and ensuring compliance with trade laws has increased, in recent years, the importance of the use and development of new analytical techniques in food science. Faster and accurate techniques are essential to provide information about processing, quality control, adulteration, contamination, chemical composition, and traceability of food.
The target of this Special Issue is to present original, simple, and efficient analytical methods for food sample preparation and preconcentration and for sample analysis, including method development, optimization, and validation combining chromatography techniques with robust, sensitive, and selective systems of detection.
Dr. Tiziana Nardin
Guest Editor
