Measurement: Food

Aims & Scope

Measurement: Food is an open access journal welcoming original, high-quality contributions from all relevant fields of this highly topical and multi-disciplinary subject.

Measurement: Food is a companion journal to Measurement: Journal of the International Measurement Confederation (IMEKO).

The journal encourages the submission of manuscripts that provide novel insights and papers reporting significant advances in the field.

Studies focusing on food and nutrition measurements by introducing metrological concepts, including methodological studies ensuring the assessment of valid dietary and food data, are invited.

All submitted manuscripts must point out the appropriate indicators of performance or metrics necessary to evaluate the results of investigation.

The journal warmly welcomes global submissions – from developed and less developed settings.

Topics include, but are not limited, to: -Innovative measurement techniques, methods, instrumentation, (bio)markers, and monitoring approaches for food safety, food quality and nutrition investigations covering aspects such as contaminants, ingredients, allergens, food composition, authenticity, and microbial quality, as well as food intake, and nutrition epidemiology.

Studies addressing attenuation of misreporting or evaluation of indices are also welcome. -Research on standardization methods, reference materials, proficiency, and intercomparison studies. -The role of metrology in food production, storage, handling, surveillance, trade, and regulations. -Studies exploring the characteristics, resilience, and sustainability of food systems.
