Special Issue Information
Der Colleagues,
Microfluidic platforms are attractive for use in different technological applications, including tissue engineering, development of organ-on-chip platforms, single cell analysis, and continuous production of nanoparticles with controllable sizes (including nanocarriers for delivering drugs or functional foods, as well as vaccines). Here, it is worth noting that the emergence of microfluidics opens new potential applications and provides new opportunities in different research fields, including basic and applied physical chemistry research areas. We are pleased to launch the Special Issue "Microfluidics in Physical Chemistry Research Areas: Current Status and Recent Advances" for highlighting the recent increasing interest in design and use of versatile microfluidic platforms in materials science and physical chemistry research areas.
We aim to provide a forum for the dissemination of recent advances in the use of microfluidics for various investigations in Physical Chemistry, as well as highlight future opportunities for investigations under continuous and confined geometry conditions.
This Special Issue will collect original research and review articles on microfluidics in physical chemistry research areas, including fundamental and applied research topics, computation, and the interface of physical chemistry, medicine, and biology.

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. Molecules is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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.
Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
