Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Our society requires new innovations both to foster its own progress and to address specific challenges. In this regard, chemistry can contribute by discovering new compounds with biological activity. These new compounds can be chemically synthesized or extracted and purified from natural sources, and may hold great potential for use in the treatment of cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and other pathologies, pest control in agriculture and veterinary medicine, or in the disinfection of equipment, spaces, or surfaces, among other applications. In this Special Issue, we invite studies that describe the initial synthesis, isolation, preparation, characterization, and biological activities of chemical compounds that could have future applications in biology, pharmacy, medicine, medicinal chemistry, veterinary science, dental medicine, agriculture, and public health.
This Special Issue, "Synthesis, Application, and Biological Evaluation of Inorganic and Organic Compounds", encourages a focus on the following topics:
- Synthesis: Methods and processes used to create inorganic compounds in a laboratory setting, including the development of novel synthesis techniques or improvements in existing ones.
- Application: The practical use of these inorganic and organic compounds across various fields such as medicine, agriculture, industry, or technology. It could cover their roles in catalysis, materials science, nanoparticles, environmental protection, and in medicine for diagnostic imaging or cancer treatment or medical healing.
- Biological Evaluation: The assessment of how these inorganic and organic compounds interact with biological systems, including their potential therapeutic effects, toxicity, or applications in healthcare, such as in drug development, diagnostics, or treatment of diseases.
This title refers to research exploring the creation of new inorganic and organic compounds, their uses in various applications, and their impacts or effectiveness in biological contexts.

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. Applied Sciences 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 2400 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.
