Flavour and Fragrance Journal publishes original research articles, reviews and special reports on all aspects of flavour and fragrance. Its high scientific standard and international character will be ensured by regional editorial support and a strict refereeing system. Emphasis will be placed on analytical aspects and the important role that analysis in its widest sense plays in the support of research and applications. As well as essential oils and other natural and naturally derived products, complementary synthetic products will be included, where appropriate. The comprehensive coverage of the journal will be reflected in the wide range of product types embraced, such as fragrances and their compositions, and the flavour, colours and odours of foodstuffs. There are many associated topics of interest, often requiring the use of interdisciplinary techniques. In addition to discussion of their end uses, coverage will include such important integral areas as biomedical sciences and legislation. The overall aim is to produce a journal of the highest quality which provides a forum for the exchange of a wide variety of information on all aspects of flavours, fragrances and related materials, and which is valued by readers and contributors alike.
Established in 1948 with the title 'Applied Scientific Research,' Flow, Turbulence and Combustion is today a forum for publication of research that contributes to the solution of problems in flow, turbulence and combustion and related fields. The journal’s audience of readers and contributors spans the international fluid mechanics community. The journal is published in association with the European Research Community on Flow, Turbulence and Combustion (ERCOFTAC), a collaboration among European universities, research institutes and industry active in the area of applied fluid mechanics, which promotes scientific research on current issues in this area. The journal covers the entire domain of flow, turbulence and combustion, including all flow problems relevant in industrial, geophysical and environmental applications. The emphasis is on solid and original research results, numerical, experimental and theoretical, and their relevance to applied fluid mechanics and combustion.
Fluid Phase Equilibria publishes high quality papers dealing with experimental,theoretical and applied research related to equilibrium and transport properties of fluid and solid phases.The fluid phase properties of interest include:PVT, enthalpies, heat capacities, Joule-Thomson coefficients, Gibbs and Helmholtz energies, chemical potentials, activity and fugacity coefficients, critical properties, chemical equilibria, multiphase equilibria and interfacial properties, thermal conductivity, viscosity and rheological properties, and diffusion coefficients.A wide range of pure and mixed fluids may be considered:Non-polar and polar small organic and inorganic molecules, ions, metals, polymers, surfactants, ionic liquids, gas hydrates, complex and biological molecules (e.g. proteins). Fluids should be well-characterized with respect to composition, or be specified with sufficient information for the experimental results to be reproduced (e.g. analysed by up-to-date techniques, or mixtures that can be obtained through a well-established published protocol).Experimental measurements:Unless they are accompanied by contemporary or new theory, papers will be refused if they report experimental data only at pressures and temperatures close to ambient on any of the following liquid or liquid mixture properties: viscosity; density; speed of sound; refractive index; surface tension. Similarly, papers will be refused if they only report phase equilibrium compositions, such as solubilities, at conditions near ambient without theoretical analysis and interpretation.All data reports and analyses will be examined by NIST for consistency with the requirements posted at http://trc.nist.gov/FPE-Support.htmlTheoretical and modeling studies:Theoretical techniques may be chemical thermodynamics, applied statistical mechanics, molecular physics, molecular simulation, quantum chemistry, applied mathematics. Papers with new models, or modifications of available models, are expected to show comparisons for accuracy and predictive ability with applicable data and contemporary existing models.All modeling of properties and phenomena based on artificial neural networks, machine learning algorithms, and similar information processing approaches will only be considered when comparisons of accuracy are made with existing physically-based models or if no thermodynamic models are available. Further, the work must describe the procedure well enough that readers may be able to independently reproduce the results.

Food Additives & Contaminants: Part B publishes surveillance data indicating the presence and levels of occurrence of designated food additives, residues and contaminants in foods and animal feed. Data using validated methods must meet stipulated quality standards to be acceptable and must be presented in a prescribed format for subsequent data-handling. Food Additives & Contaminants: Part B has a restricted scope in terms of classes of food additives, residues and contaminants that are included, being based on a goal of covering those areas where there is a need to record surveillance data for the purposes of exposure and risk assessment. The scope is initially restricted to: 1. Additives - food colours, artificial sweeteners, and preservatives; 2. Residues - veterinary drug and pesticide residues; 3. Contaminants - metals, mycotoxins, phycotoxins, plant toxins, nitrate/nitrite, PCDDs/PCFDs, PCBs, PAHs, acrylamide, 3-MPCD and contaminants derived from food packaging. Papers reporting surveillance data in areas other than the above should be submitted to Part A. The scope of Part B will be expanded from time-to-time to ensure inclusion of new areas of concern. Readership The readership includes scientists involved in all aspects of food safety and quality and particularly those involved in monitoring human exposure to chemicals from the diet.
