Electrochemical Sensors for Food Applications

Measuring compounds present in food, including additives, colorants, and vitamins, plays a very important role in evaluating the quality of food. For this reason, an important part of food quality control has been focused on methods to measure these substances. Among the methods for measuring food additives, electrochemical techniques have grown significantly owning to their high speed, low cost, and absence of needing harmful solutions. Electrochemical sensors have been widely used in the measurement of various compounds in food with high sensitivity and selectivity. They have been reported as a reliable alternative to complex lab-based techniques. This special collection attempts to publish the latest efforts in development and design of electrochemical sensors for selective measurement of food samples. We invite submissions of research and review papers in electrochemical sensors and biosensors for food applications. Aims and scope of the special collection: • New electrochemical sensors for monitoring and detection of food additives, • Electrochemical investigation of compounds in food, and • Electrochemical biosensors for monitoring and measurement of compounds in agricultural, water and food products.
