Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The application of analytical methodologies to assess and ensure the quality of food products is of paramount importance. In this context, spectroscopic techniques play a crucial role, as they can provide an accurate fingerprint of a food product, offering a rapid, non-destructive and highly sensitive approach. These techniques generate signals that contain extensive information regarding the chemical composition of the product. However, the interpretation and analysis of such data can be challenging, necessitating the use of chemometric techniques to effectively process the spectroscopic data.
Therefore, this Special Issue is collecting papers focused on the use of spectroscopic techniques in conjunction with chemometrics to analyse, characterise or differentiate food products.

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. Foods 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 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.
