Special Issue Information
The incorporation of the Green Chemistry requirements within the analytical process has been highly pursued in recent years. In this sense, efforts have shifted towards the development of green analytical sample preparation methods and analytical separation techniques. The proposed strategies to improve the sustainability of analytical protocols are mainly based on the miniaturization and/or automation of the process, the reduction or even elimination of organic solvents and/or toxic reagents required in the procedure, and the design and incorporation of new solvents and sorbents with enhanced environmentally friendly characteristics.
This Special Issue aims to address recent advances in the development of greener tools applied in analytical methodologies, including improvements of the procedures and instrumentation, together with the incorporation of new materials. The use of already proposed sustainable technologies is also covered as long as they are applied for a specific challenging application as an alternative to conventional approaches.
We warmly invite colleagues to contribute to this Special Issue with original research articles or review articles. We believe that this collection will have a significant impact in the analytical research community.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All papers will be peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Molecules is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2000 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English.
