Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Nanoparticles have found an array of innovative uses in analytical chemistry. These include research in the areas of sample preparation, separations, detection, and sensors/device development. This Special Issue aims to provide a collection of research and review papers that demonstrates the increasing and important role of nanoparticles, towards improving analytical methodologies that are important to man. New concepts that relate to the use of nanoparticles in qualitative and quantitative analytical chemistry are encouraged. Papers dealing with the analysis of complex mixtures and important compounds (e.g., biologically active, environmentally unsafe, natural products, and compounds with commercial interest) are most welcome.

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.
