Advances in Sample Preparation

ISSN: 2772-5820

Advances in Sample Preparation is an Open Access journal devoted to publishing high-quality original research, reviews, tutorials and opinion articles covering with all aspects related to sample preparation. The journal welcomes the submission of original manuscripts on all fundamental and applied aspects related to sample preparation, which are at the forefront and cover discoveries in fundamentals, innovations in new extraction principles, materials, techniques and technologies, miniaturization, in vivo and on site sampling, automation, hyphenation, green sample preparation, and impactful applications in e.g. environmental, food and beverages, forensic, plants, pharmaceutical, bioanalysis and biomedical, as well as chemometric and computational approaches of relevance in these contexts. The journal places emphasis on scientifically rigorous studies related to sample preparation and only articles with a clear and strong research justification and novelty will be considered. All articles must align to green sample preparation or green analytical chemistry concepts and propose analytical practices that promote user's safety, safe materials and solvents, fast procedures, minimization of waste and energy. The use of metric tools to evaluate the greenness of the method is encouraged. The Scope for Advances in Sample Preparation includes: Fundamentals related to operational understanding and optimization New extraction principles, techniques, and technologies New solvents and materials used for extraction and separation Innovative instrumental approaches, automation, and hyphenation Isolation and separation of compounds both at a small or large scale Chemometrics Miniaturization in sample preparation, including microscale and nanoscale systems Green sample preparation and related metric tools Sensors and sensing with integrated sample preparation In vivo and on-site sample preparation technologies Original research articles describing new materials and methodologies should be applied to a sample matrix of suitable analytical complexity and provide evidence that they are substantially superior to any published method. Analytical performance characteristics must be given, including calibration, sensitivity, detection limits, accuracy, precision, and interferences. The potential for future routine application and automation should also be discussed. Reports of routine research on sample preparation and straightforward applications describing incremental additions to the scientific literature are discouraged. New applications will be accepted only if clearly demonstrate a high level of general importance and interest to the analytical chemistry community at large and if validated and critically compared with standard methods in terms of efficiency, selectivity, clean-up, enrichment, time and green chemistry potential. All manuscripts should relate and discuss experimental data and observations to fundamental theory. Reviews are invited or written with the prior agreement of the journal. In the latter case, topic proposals, including the title and a brief outline, must be emailed in advance to any of the journal's Editors. Review articles must be sufficiently broad in scope and specific enough to permit discussion to be made at an appropriate depth. They must be critical and comprehensive rather than an exhaustive list of published works on the proposed topic. Tutorials should describe the fundamental principles and practical operational details of a given sample preparation method. Opinion articles present the author's viewpoint and promote scientific discourse that challenges the current state of knowledge in any sub-field of sample preparation. Opinion articles are generally based on constructive criticism and should contain published evidence. Manuscripts are considered for publication in Advances in Sample Preparation 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 immediate actions will be taken in case of an offense. Advances in Sample Preparation is connected to the Sample Preparation Study Group and Network of the European Chemical Society-Division of Analytical Chemistry.

Analytica Chimica Acta

ISSN: 0003-2670
5 Year impact factor: 5.9
Impact factor: 6.2

An International Journal Devoted to All Branches of Analytical Chemistry Analytica 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).

Analytical Chemistry Research

ISSN: 2214-1812

This journal welcomes the submission of research papers which report studies concerning the development of analytical methodologies. Scrutiny will be placed on the significance of the research and the extent to which it adds, or supports, existing knowledge when determining its suitability for publication. Manuscripts detailing fundamental research on all aspects of analytical theory and methodology, such as innovative instrumental, chemical and biological approaches, detectors and sensors, sample treatment methods and data treatment are encouraged. Papers describing the use of routine analytical methods or straightforward extension of these methods to new sample matrices will normally not be published unless a degree of novelty is highlighted which can be demonstrated to give very clear and quantifiable advantages over existing methods. Authors should address the question of how their proposed methodology compares with previously reported methods and the method should comprise information on selectivity, sensitivity, detection limits, accuracy, and reliability. Proper statistical treatment of the data should be provided. Relevant literature should be cited, including related publications by the authors, and authors should discuss how their proposed methodology compares with previously reported methods.

Antiviral Research

ISSN: 0166-3542
5 Year impact factor: 5.8
Impact factor: 7.6

A journal for research on the prevention and treatment of viral diseasesAn Official Publication of the International Society for Antiviral Research Antiviral Research publishes research reports, short communications, review articles and commentaries on the control of viral infections in humans and animals. Its scope encompasses: antiviral drugs, antibodies and host-response modifiers, including their synthesis, in vitro and in vivo testing and mechanisms of action. new or improved vaccines against viral infections of humans; assessments of drug and vaccine safety; evolution of drug- or vaccine-resistant viruses and the development of effective countermeasures; identification and validation of new drug targets; laboratory animal models of viral diseases; pathogenesis of viral diseases and mechanisms of viral evasion of host immune responses. We encourage the submission of manuscripts describing the activity of well-defined chemical compounds for the treatment of viral diseases of humans and vertebrate animals. We also publish manuscripts on the protective activity of vaccines for humans, and we will consider reports of the testing of veterinary vaccines in the target animal species. All papers must include a sufficiently detailed description of methods to permit other investigators to replicate the experiments. Authors reporting the antiviral effect of a novel small-molecule drug must reveal its chemical structure. Claims of in vitro or in vivo efficacy of a drug or vaccine must be supported by appropriate statistical analysis. Note: Antiviral Research may choose not to publish certain COVID-19 papers. The COVID-19 pandemic has focused attention on the possibility that patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 might benefit from treatment with certain licensed drugs approved for conditions other than viral infection. Reports that various medications inhibit the replication of the virus in vitro have been widely publicized in news articles and on medical websites, giving the impression that compounds still in the earliest stage of evaluation may be used to prevent or treat COVID-19. Such misunderstanding may result in the inappropriate use of a drug by physicians and to self-treatment by people who obtain it from other sources, with a risk of toxicity. This may be a particular problem when a medication is available without prescription as a veterinary product. Hoarding or inappropriate use of a drug intended to treat another disease may also make it unavailable to patients with that disease. The editors of Antiviral Research may therefore choose not to publish certain COVID-19 manuscripts, when in our judgment publication is likely to result in harm, without clear evidence of benefit. The scope of AVR also includes the prevention and treatment of viral diseases of vertebrate animals. We do not publish reports on viral diseases of plants or of insects, crustaceans or other invertebrates. Studies of viral diseases of livestock and companion animals must be clearly related to the development of realistic therapies. Papers on veterinary vaccines should report findings in the target animal species. We discourage the submission of manuscripts reporting the antiviral activity of unpurified natural products, or of partially purified substances of natural origin for which a mechanism of action has not been determined. Manuscripts claiming an antiviral effect of homeopathic products or other highly diluted preparations, or which fail to clearly identify the biological ingredient or molecule responsible for the antiviral activity of an experimental therapy, will not be considered for publication. Articles describing antiseptics with broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity will not be accepted. We also discourage submission of in silico docking studies or other computer-based predictions of antiviral activity that are not supported by data from biological assays. Citations of reports that have not undergone peer review must include the note "[not peer-reviewed]." Antiviral Research is an official publication of the International Society for Antiviral Research (http://www.isar-icar.com).
