Advances in Sample Preparation

ISSN: 2772-5820
5 Year impact factor: 5.2
Impact factor: 5.2

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 optimizationNew extraction principles, techniques, and technologiesNew solvents and materials used for extraction and separationInnovative instrumental approaches, automation, and hyphenationIsolation and separation of compounds both at a small or large scaleChemometricsMiniaturization in sample preparation, including microscale and nanoscale systemsGreen sample preparation and related metric toolsSensors and sensing with integrated sample preparationIn vivo and on-site sample preparation technologiesOriginal 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.
