Food Policy

• ISSN: 0306-9192
• 5 Year impact factor: 6.6
• Impact factor: 6.8

Food Policy is a multidisciplinary journal publishing original research and novel evidence on issues in the formulation, implementation, and evaluation of policies for the food sector in developing, transition, and advanced economies.Our main focus is on the economic and social aspect of food policy, and we prioritize empirical studies informing international food policy debates. Provided that articles make a clear and explicit contribution to food policy debates of international interest, we consider papers from any of the social sciences. Papers from other disciplines (e.g., law) will be considered only if they provide a key policy contribution, and are written in a style which is accessible to a social science readership.Policy issues that are relevant to the journal include: • Food production, trade, marketing, and consumption • Nutrition and health aspects of food systems • Food needs, entitlements, security, and aid • Food safety and quality assurance • Technological and institutional innovation affecting food systems and access • Food systems and environmental sustainabilityConceptual and methodological articles should be written so that they are accessible to the journal's diverse international readership. We normally do not publish review papers, although we might make rare exceptions for rigorous and critical reviews on topical issues.See also Elsevier's Economics Journals

Journal of Stored Products Research

• ISSN: 0022-474X
• 5 Year impact factor: 2.7
• Impact factor: 2.7

The Journal of Stored Products Research provides an international medium for the publication of both reviews and original results from laboratory and field research on all aspects of the preservation and safety of stored products along the supply chain starting from production to the consumer. The scope covers both durable commodities, and fresh fruits, vegetables, and freshly manufactured foodstuffs. Durable commodities are characterized by having relatively low moisture content and include raw and semi-processed foods such as grains, dried fruits, and animal feed, and other stored products such as timber, rubber, resins, clothing, and museum artefacts that are generally suitable for long-term storage. Fresh fruits, vegetables, and freshly manufactured foodstuffs (eg. bakery, sausages), are characterized by having high moisture contents but are stored over short to medium-term storage.Manuscripts are welcomed on: the biology, ecology, physiology, behaviour, taxonomy, and genetics of vertebrates (eg. rodents and birds) and invertebrate pests (eg. insects, mites) and microbial spoilage agents (eg. fungi, mold, yeast, and bacteria)environmental factors influencing the life cycles of the above-listed storage pests and spoilage agentsthe physical, chemical, and biological control of pests and spoilage agents, including the use of biologically producing compounds as preservatives with broad-spectrum antimicrobial activitiessubmission of manuscripts containing research on plant materials/botanicals are encouraged only if significant applied aspects are undertaken demonstrating their detailed chemical composition and long-term efficacy in the laboratory, supported by field application and the use of suitable controls: both negative/blank and positive (i.e., a compound of known activity)development of biochemical or behavioural resistance in pests to control measures and their managementstorage biotechnology, integrated pest management, and decision support systemsthe effects of physical, chemical, and environmental control procedures on the physical and chemical nature, besides quality parameters of the stored commoditiesthe assessment, prevention, and control of physical losses and preservation of quality of commodities during storage, and waste managementregulatory, technological, and socio-economic subjects relevant to stored productsNovel approaches in postharvest food engineering and manufacturing technologies, (eg. AI tools, chemical sensors, gas detectors) in processing, packaging, and design and modifications of storage structuresThe Journal of Stored Products Research reflects the worldwide interest in finding researched-based solutions for problems arising from the process of storage directly affecting the quality of stored products and their relevance to food security and safety, commodity protection, and their market access and trade.

Micron

• ISSN: 0968-4328
• 5 Year impact factor: 2.2
• Impact factor: 2.5

The International Research and Review Journal for MicroscopyMicron is an interdisciplinary forum for all work that involves new applications of microscopy or where advanced microscopy plays a central role. The journal publishes research papers on the design, methods, application, practice or theory of microscopy and microanalysis, including reports on light optical, electron-beam, X-ray microtomography, ion microscopy and scanning-probe imaging.It also carries review papers, short communications, thematic issues on contemporary developments in microscopy & microanalysis, as well as tutorial papers describing microscopy techniques for current practitioners or newcomers in the field. The journal embraces original research in which microscopy has contributed significantly to knowledge in biology, life science, nanoscience and nanotechnology, materials science and engineering.Authors are encouraged to contact one of the Editors directly to discuss Review or Tutorial proposals: https://www.journals.elsevier.com/micron/editorial-boardBenefits to authorsWe provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more. Please click here for more information on our author services.Please see our Guide for Authors for information on article submission. If you require any further information or help, please visit our Support Center.Micron enables researchers to rapidly share their most exciting work with their colleagues. The expected time from submission to final decision is approximately 5 weeks.The journal does not have page limits, so supplementary text is unnecessary and should be avoided.Authors are encouraged to deposit supplementary materials during submission, e.g. videos and research data, in a relevant data repository such as Mendeley Data and cite and link to this dataset in their article. There are several ways you can share your data, which helps you get credit for your work and make your data accessible and discoverable for your peers. To deposit your data please follow the Research Data Guidelines.Note to the authorsNo changes in the list authors will be accepted during the review process or after acceptance unless such a claim is duly justified by the authors.
