Aims and Scope
Talanta provides a forum for the publication of original research papers, short communications, and critical reviews in all branches of pure and applied analytical chemistry. Papers are evaluated based on established guidelines, including the fundamental nature of the study, scientific novelty, substantial improvement or advantage over existing technology or methods, and demonstrated analytical applicability. Original research papers on fundamental studies, and on novel sensor and instrumentation developments, are encouraged. Novel or improved applications in areas such as clinical and biological chemistry, environmental analysis, geochemistry, materials science and engineering, and analytical platforms for omics development are welcome.

Analytical performance of methods should be determined, including interference and matrix effects, and methods should be validated by comparison with a standard method, or analysis of a certified reference material. Simple spiking recoveries may not be sufficient. The developed method should especially comprise information on selectivity, sensitivity, detection limits, accuracy, and reliability. However, applying official validation or robustness studies to a routine method or technique does not necessarily constitute novelty. Proper statistical treatment of the data should be provided. Relevant literature should be cited, including related publications by the authors, and authors should discuss how their proposed methodology compares with previously reported methods.

Verified Reviews
Note: Verified reviews are sourced from across review platforms and social media globally.
Firstly submitted to ACA, with 5 reviewers. One strongly requested rejection, three accepted, and one reviewer did not express their opinion. The editor rejected the submission, but the scientific editor suggested transferring it to Talanta. The review process was relatively fast, and the editor was also nice. However, it was a bit challenging to submit the manuscript to the journal initially, but once it reached the editor, the process was quick. It was sent for review on the same day and the review comments were received within 2 days.

The editor (Jose Luis Burguera) processed the manuscript quickly. It was sent for external review on the second day after submission. After 4 days, it was reviewed with minor revisions suggested. The revisions were completed and resubmitted within 6 days. The following day, it was accepted directly. The entire process took about half a month and was a smooth submission.
