Antioxidant Activity in Plants, Plant-Derived Bioactive Compounds and Foods
Topic Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent years, the scientific community has shown great interest in the field of plant antioxidants, and a great number of studies have been published documenting their health-promoting effects as well as their involvement as pharmacological agents in different molecular signaling pathways. A variety of plant materials are known to be natural sources of antioxidants, such as herbs, spices, seeds, fruits, and vegetables. The interest in these natural components is driven not only by their biological value, but also by their economic and ecological impact, as most of them may be extracted from food byproducts, under-exploited plant species, or traditionally used medicinal and edible plants. The current Topic gathers five well-respected journals from MDPI aiming to offer the possibility for researchers to publish their results concerning plant antioxidants in the most suitable journal, featuring great visibility for their research. The Topic welcomes manuscripts regarding any aspects of plant antioxidants in relation to their use in nutrition, medicinal chemistry, pharmacology and pharmacy, and food chemistry and technology.

Preprints.org is a multidisciplinary platform offering a preprint service designed to facilitate the early sharing of your research. It supports and empowers your research journey from the very beginning.
MDPI Topics is collaborating with Preprints.org and has established a direct connection between MDPI journals and the platform. Authors are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity by posting their preprints at Preprints.org prior to publication:
- Share your research immediately: disseminate your ideas prior to publication and establish priority for your work.
- Safeguard your intellectual contribution: Protect your ideas with a time-stamped preprint that serves as proof of your research timeline.
- Boost visibility and impact: Increase the reach and influence of your research by making it accessible to a global audience.
- Gain early feedback: Receive valuable input and insights from peers before submitting to a journal.
- Ensure broad indexing: Web of Science (Preprint Citation Index), Google Scholar, Crossref, SHARE, PrePubMed, Scilit and Europe PMC.
