Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to announce the Special Issue entitled "Recent Advances in Photocatalytic Degradation of Tetracycline Antibiotics”. This topic is timely and highly relevant, given the increasing concerns over the environmental persistence and potential toxicity of tetracycline antibiotics.
Photocatalysis, as an emerging technology, has shown promising results in the degradation of organic pollutants, including tetracycline antibiotics. The recent advancements in photocatalyst design, optimization, and reaction mechanisms have further accelerated the research progress in this area.
We are seeking original research articles, review papers, and perspectives that highlight the latest advancements in photocatalytic degradation of tetracycline antibiotics. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Design and synthesis of novel photocatalysts for the degradation of tetracycline or other antibiotics;
- Enhanced photocatalytic activity and mechanisms for the degradation of tetracycline or other antibiotics;
- Integration of photocatalysis with other treatment technologies for the removal of tetracycline or other antibiotics;
- Environmental impact and toxicity assessment of the photocatalytic degradation of tetracycline or other antibiotics.
We encourage submissions from researchers across various fields, including material science, environmental engineering, chemistry, and pharmacology. Your contributions will provide valuable insights and further advance the understanding and applications of photocatalysis in tetracycline antibiotic degradation. Thank you for considering this Special Issue, and we eagerly await your contributions.
If you would like to submit papers for publication in this Special Issue or have any questions, please contact the in-house editor, Mr. Ives Liu (ives.liu@mdpi.com).

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. Catalysts is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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.
