Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to provide an up-to-date and comprehensive view of the applications in food field of electronic nose (or sensors array) science and technology.
The covered topics will span sensing devices, networks, and principles (e.g., chemical, physical, and biological sensors), electronic nose technologies, and sensor networks based on the food field.
The food field will include food security, and control of the entire production chain, from farm to fork, dealing with quality, authenticity, and shelf-life measurement.
The goal is to report novel, highly-functional technology such as electronic noses, applied to a field such as foodstuffs, where there is an increasing need for devices that are able to predict, control, and provide information in real-time or quickly on the state of food, whether at the level of industrial, domestic, or laboratory production. Technology is sought that aims to reduce time, costs, and provide information at any level of the food production chain.

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.
