Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Aerobic life has generated various challenges for organisms based on the generation of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS), which can damage various molecules and, consequently, cell functions. A wide variety of abiotic factors, including salinity, temperature, and a large number of toxic compounds, can alter the balance between the concentrations of antioxidants and pro-oxidants, which is a relevant problem not only for the management of aquatic ecosystems but also for productive activities such as aquaculture. The aim of this Special Issue is to gather and disseminate the latest research and advancements related to the assessment of oxidative stress and use of antioxidant biomarkers in aquatic organisms, including fish, crustaceans, mollusks, amphibians, algae, and plants. Several topics receive special emphasis, including new techniques and paradigms related to environmental pollution in the context of climate change. Other relevant topics include the use of antioxidant supplements in productive activities, such as aquaculture not only in the modulation of the antioxidant and oxidative damage responses of aquatic organisms, but also its influence on the energetic, growth, and reproductive status. Studies on the advancement of knowledge that is not always considered in studies dealing with aquatic organisms will include hormetic responses, mechanistic analysis using molecular docking and dynamics, and meta-analyses.
The main objective of this Special Issue is to publish cutting-edge research and knowledge to serve as a reference for both researchers and policymakers working toward the protection and sustainable management of aquatic ecosystems and productive activities such as aquaculture.

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. Antioxidants 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 2900 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.
