MOLECULES  (ISSN 1420-3049)  journal is published online since
1996, http://www.mdpi.org/molecules/). It maintains a rigorous and fast
peer-review system. Well written papers have been peer reviewed and
published in less than 1 month from manuscript submission, see the example:
http://www.mdpi.org/molecules/papers/11040212.pdf.


Because it is an online journal, papers published in MOLECULES
receive very high publicity. This journal is indexed and abstracted very
rapidly by the leading indexing and abstracting
services including Beilstein,
Chemical Abstracts and Science
Citation Index Expanded (Web of Science).

This thematic special issue will be fully Open Access with publishing fees
paid by authors. Open Access (unlimited access by readers) increases publicity
and promotes more frequent citations as indicated by several studies. More
information is available at http://www.mdpi.org/oaj-supports.htm.

Please send your paper by e-mail to [email protected] and send a copy to
us. The subject title of the message should be "Manuscript for Special Issue on Alkaloids".
