Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Food products are complex matrices containing various molecules, which can have beneficial or harmful effects on human health, and can determine the flavour of foodstuffs in relation to food spoilage. The development of separation techniques has resulted in a massive increase in studies focused on the analysis of compounds in food samples.
This Special Issue aims to summarize the recent findings related to the development and application of separation techniques to determine the health-promoting potential, safety, authenticity, and aroma in food products. The Special Issue will cover various topics, including (but not limited to) bioactive compound analysis, method development, omics approaches, and volatile organic compounds analysis.
