Analytica Chimica Acta

  • ISSN: 0003-2670
  • 5 Year impact factor: 5.5
  • Impact factor: 5.7
An International Journal Devoted to All Branches of Analytical ChemistryAnalytica Chimica Acta provides a forum for the rapid publication of original research, and critical, comprehensive reviews dealing with all aspects of fundamental and applied modern analytical chemistry. The journal welcomes the submission of research papers which report studies concerning the development of new and significant analytical methodologies. In determining the suitability of submitted articles for publication, particular scrutiny will be placed on the degree of novelty and impact of the research and the extent to which it adds to the existing body of knowledge in analytical chemistry.Manuscripts detailing fundamental research on all aspects of analytical chemistry theory and methodology (including chemometric techniques), such as innovative instrumental, chemical and biological approaches, detectors and sensors, sample treatment methods and data treatment that truly demonstrate new principles and/or important applications are especially encouraged. Analytica Chimica Acta focuses on fundamental new developments in analytical chemistry in general and discourages specialized application oriented submissions that are of interest to a limited number of readers. Papers describing the direct use of routine analytical methodologies or their straightforward/incremental extension of these methods to new sample matrices will normally be rejected unless new and important developments are described which can be demonstrated to give obvious and quantifiable advantages over existing approaches. In all submissions to the journal, authors must address the question of how their proposed methodology compares with those previously reported for the analytes in question even if they employed different techniques. The journal does not focus on application papers, especially those that are straightforward utilizations of commercial instrumentation or other existing techniques, regardless of how complex and expensive they may be. If submitted, application papers must clearly demonstrate a high level of general importance and interest to the analytical chemistry community at large.It will normally be expected that where new analytical methodologies and developments are described these will be applied to a sample matrix of suitable analytical complexity. In such cases appropriate validation of the method must be provided, together with proper statistical treatment of data. Analytical performance characteristics of new methodologies must be given, including calibration, sensitivity, detection limits, accuracy, precision, and interferences. They must also clearly demonstrate substantial superiority in some important respect over existing alternatives.Reviews are normally written by prior agreement of the reviews editors. Potential authors are encouraged to discuss the subject matter of a proposed review with the review editor, and will be asked to provide a brief outline of the subject matter of the proposed review. Review articles should be sufficiently broad in scope to appeal to a wide cross-section of the journal's readership, but should be specific enough to permit discussion to be made at an appropriate depth. Basic methodology and principles should not be included in reviews, but suitable reference should be made to sources of this information. Above all, reviews should be critical rather than enumerative and should provide the reader with expert opinion regarding the relative merits of the various published approaches to the topic under review. Figures and Tables are encouraged in review articles. Tutorials describing the fundamental principles and practical operational details of a given analytical technique, sample processing approach or chemometric method are also welcome. Perspectives are short articles (max 5,000 words), usually from a single author, that provide a particular viewpoint pertaining to analytical chemistry. At least initially, this will not be an open submission process but, instead, these will be solicited (by invite only) from individuals of high scientific merit and/or influence by the perspective editor. While they should strive for objectivity, their main focus is on the individual viewpoint, and as such may advocate the importance of a particular avenue of scientific investigation, analytical method, or field of application. Perspective manuscripts are typically reviewed by editors or members of the editorial board.Manuscripts are considered for publication in Analytica Chimica Acta only on the basis that the work is original and unpublished. The editors and publisher are fundamentally opposed to any form of duplication and plagiarism and if discovered, not only will the manuscript be immediately rejected, the corresponding author(s) could be banned from future submissions to any Elsevier journal. Depending on the severity of the offense, the incident may also be reported to the responsible authorities at the corresponding author's institution(s).

Calphad

  • ISSN: 0364-5916
  • 5 Year impact factor: 2.1
  • Impact factor: 1.9
The design of industrial processes requires reliable thermodynamic data. CALPHAD (Computer Coupling of Phase Diagrams and Thermochemistry) aims to promote computational thermodynamics through development of models to represent thermodynamic properties for various phases which permit prediction of properties of multicomponent systems from those of binary and ternary subsystems, critical assessment of data and their incorporation into self-consistent databases, development of software to optimize and derive thermodynamic parameters and the development and use of databanks for calculations to improve understanding of various industrial and technological processes. This work is disseminated through the CALPHAD journal and its annual conference. Contributions of high quality in these and related fields, especially the fields of first-principles calculations, experimental measurements of thermochemical and phase equilibrium data, phase transformations, and the process and materials designs that the CALPHAD works are based on or used for, are welcome.Please see our Guide for Authors for information on article submission.

Carbohydrate Polymer Technologies and Applications

  • ISSN: 2666-8939
  • 5 Year impact factor: 6.2
  • Impact factor: 6.2
Carbohydrate Polymer Technologies and Applications is an open access scholarly journal devoted to scientific and technological aspects and applications of polymers and oligomers containing carbohydrate. Carbohydrate Polymer Technologies and Applications is a companion journal to Carbohydrate Polymers with a broader and more inclusive reach to cater for the increased spread of research interests. Carbohydrate Polymer Technologies and Applications covers all polymers and oligomers containing carbohydrate, including carbohydrate polymers, cyclodextrins, glycoproteins, glycolipids, dendrimers containing carbohydrate, glycopeptide linkages, glycoproteins, lipopolysaccharides, peptidoglycans and proteoglycans. We also welcome papers that include carbohydrate-directed enzymes where they are working on or applied to macromolecular carbohydrate substrates. To be acceptable for publications papers must focus majorly, but not exclusively upon the carbohydrate polymer of the molecule under consideration. From the molecular point of view, characteristics of the carbohydrate-containing molecule will be paramount covering analysis, molecular weight, structure, physicochemical aspects. Enzymic biodegradation and biosynthesis of carbohydrate-containing molecules will also be covered. Papers on the technology of creating new carbohydrate-containing molecules will be of major interest. From the applications point of view, coverage will be broad including the wholescale use of the above-mentioned types of carbohydrate in archaeology, botany, chemical engineering, chemical industry, farming, genetic engineering, healthcare, materials science and medicine. All papers will have in their title and abstract the name of at least one carbohydrate-containing molecule on which the paper is majorly focussed. That carbohydrate content must include at least two monosaccharide units, and therefore the scope of the journal will include neither free monosaccharides nor monomeric-carbohydrate molecules such as simple glycosides.
