The Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry is a peer-reviewed scientific journal established in 1953 by the American Chemical Society.[1] Since 1999, James N. Seiber (University of California, Davis) has been the editor-in-chief.[2][3]
The journal covers research dealing with the chemistry and biochemistry of agriculture and food including work with chemistry and/or biochemistry as a major component combined with biological/sensory/nutritional/toxicological evaluation related to agriculture and/or food. Papers are grouped into eight categories: Agricultural and Environmental Chemistry, Analysis and Chemosensory Perception of Flavor, Analytical Methods, Bioactive Constituents and Functions, Biofuels and Biobased Products, Chemical Aspects of Biotechnology and Molecular Biology, Food and Beverage Chemistry/Biochemistry, and Food Safety and Toxicology.
