Aim & Scope
Advances in Food Technology and Nutrition Sciences (AFTNS) is dedicated to the open dissemination and rigorous discussion of research spanning food technology, nutrition science, and applied food product development, consistent with the journal's Publication Ethics commitment to scientifically sound, practically relevant scholarship.
Core Subject Areas
AFTNS welcomes original research, reviews, and product-development studies covering:
- Food product formulation and development
- Nutritional composition and antioxidant analysis
- Functional foods and nutraceuticals
- Food processing technology and preservation
- Aquaculture and fish nutrition
- Dietary intervention and weight management
- Probiotic and fermented food science
- Food quality, safety, and sensory evaluation
Who Should Submit
The journal welcomes contributions from food scientists, nutritionists, dietitians, food technologists, researchers, agricultural scientists, educators, and students engaged in food technology and nutrition science research, consistent with the manuscript types described in the Author Guidelines.
Scope of Contributions
AFTNS accepts a broad range of article types — original research, review articles, case reports, mini reviews, editorials, short communications, and letters to the editor — provided each submission falls genuinely within the subject areas above and meets the journal's standards for scientific rigor, as evaluated through the Peer Review Process.
What Falls Outside Our Scope
Manuscripts addressing agricultural production or crop science without a substantive food technology or nutrition-science focus are generally better suited to a dedicated agricultural sciences journal, and authors are encouraged to consider journal fit carefully before submission.
