Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The natural products are valuable sources of compounds with remarkable benefits for human health. Among these compounds the antioxidant are very important for the health and longevity of the life because these are limiting the oxidative stress, one of the most important worrying factor in actuality. The detection and quantification of antioxidants in natural sample is of great interest even, in some cases, the chemical antioxidant profile could be also useful. Creating a database of chemical profiles of the samples and the use of multivariate data analysis could be useful in the authentication of the natural products. There are numerous methods developed in both research areas and the need of correlation establishment is necessary. Therefore, it is necessary to develop more specific research studies in order to establish the correlations between the results obtained by different methods and to find a way to standardize the results. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:
- antioxidant activity
- biologic-active compound
- phenolic compounds
- free radical scavenging
- electrochemical sensor
- electrochemical biosensor
- chromatography
- spectrometry
- multivariate data analysis.

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. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. 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.
