Applied Spectroscopy Reviews (ASR) is an international and interdisciplinary journal that provides the latest information on the principles, methods, and applications of a number of diverse branches of spectroscopy, primarily from X-ray, infrared, Raman, atomic, mass, and NMR, luminescence/fluorescence, optical sensing, and microspectrometry. The journal presents discussions that relate physical concepts to chemical applications for chemists, physicists, biologists, and other scientists including clinicians and non-clinicians using spectroscopic techniques.
Whilst ASR publishes papers on interdisciplinary fields, the journal has a strong focus on the following topics of medicinal disciplines and welcomes papers with the following keywords.
- Medical investigations of various disease processes
- Cancer research
- Analysis of clinical biofluids
- Microbiology; Understanding bacteria, viruses and biofilms
- Immunology studies
- Histopathology, Spectroscopy of fresh and fixed tissues
- Understanding chemical pathway to the progression of various diseases
- Pharmacokinetics; Drug delivery and drug development
-
While the primary article type ASR publishes is reviews (both full and comprehensive reviews as well as mini-reviews), the journal will also consider very selected and unique experimental applications, particularly on the use of spectroscopy to solve problems such as diagnostic studies in basic sciences and medicine. In these cases, the results obtained and what they mean are more important than the method. Occasionally the journal will present special issues.
The submitting author should establish their scientific credentials and qualifications to write a review. This can be achieved by providing evidence of recent experimental publications from the last three years in your cover letter. Otherwise, the review may be rejected. The review should be a critical review of referenced literature. Contact the Editor or Associate Editors for further information/clarification. Please note, a positive reply does not mean acceptance as all papers are subject to review.

Applied Spectroscopy Reviews is a hybrid open access journal that is part of our Open Select publishing program, giving you the option to publish open access. Publishing open access means that your article will be free to access online immediately on publication, increasing the visibility, readership, and impact of your research.
If you choose to publish open access in this journal you may be asked to pay an Article Publishing Charge (APC). You may be able to publish your article at no cost to yourself or with a reduced APC if your institution or research funder has an open access agreement or membership with Taylor & Francis.
