Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Foodborne illnesses pose a significant threat worldwide to public health. According to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in 2017, there are about 48 million reported cases of foodborne diseases in the United States annually. Foodborne pathogens are the main reason for the wide spread of these infectious diseases. Bacteria at low concentrations are hard to detect; however, only a low dose of bacterial pathogens in food can pose a serious, widespread threat to human health, and also cause serious economic losses. Moreover, the majority of bacteria can rapidly proliferate with the rich nutrients in foods. Therefore, the recognition, high efficient isolation, and high sensitive detection of foodborne pathogens in food by intelligent detection methods are critical and urgently required to protect the health of consumers, avoid foodborne illnesses, and contribute to food safety. Research and review articles that explore these areas are welcomed.

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 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. Foods is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
