Research Progress on the Processing and Modification of Lipid Compounds in Food
Deadline for manuscript submissions: 31 December 2024
专刊简介/Introduction
In the contemporary food industry, the focus on health, nutrition, and sustainability has escalated the exploration and modification of lipid compounds. Lipids play a vital role in food formulation, sensory properties, and overall nutritional value.
As consumer preferences evolve towards healthier and more sustainable options, the processing and modification of lipid compounds have become crucial areas of research and development.
Enhancing lipid stability, reducing unhealthy trans fats, and incorporating beneficial fatty acids are among the pivotal research directions in this domain. While considerable progress has been made in understanding lipid chemistry and functionality, there remains a pressing need for innovative processing methods and modifications that can improve the nutritional profile and sensory attributes of food products.
This Special Issue aims to provide a forum for researchers to present current and recent developments in the processing and modification of lipid compounds in food. We welcome original research papers and review articles addressing various aspects of lipid processing, modification, and application in food.

Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are 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 2700 CHF (Swiss Francs).
