Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Agriculture, dating back thousands of years in human history, is the process of cultivating and breeding animals, plants and fungi for food, medicine and industrial raw materials. Modern agricultural and food science aims to fulfil the growing demands of human beings, involving food and agricultural products, such as grain, vegetable, fruit, oilseed, tea, cotton, farmed animals and edible fungi, etc. and their by-products.

How to measure contaminants such as pesticide residue, veterinary residue, heavy metals and mycotoxins, nutrients such as proteins, lipids, carbohydrates and vitamins, and sensory quality such as flavor, visuals, taste and touch senses is a focus of recent research. Analytical chemistry was, is and will continue to provide feasible technological approaches for food and agricultural products analysis, so as to facilitate agricultural production and food processing, and protect human health and safety.

In recent years, technological advancements, such as atomic spectrometry, molecular spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, chromatography, capillary electrophoresis, magnetic resonance, portable detection techniques, chemometrics, immunity-based and nanomaterial-based detection, as well as sample preparation and separation, etc., have provided many tools for us to detect known and unknown substances in food and agricultural products. This encouraged us to assemble advanced studies into this Special Issue, entitled “Recent Advances in Food and Agricultural Products Analysis II”.
