Scope/Description:

The Journal of Stored Products Research provides an international medium for the publication of both reviews and original results from laboratory and field studies on the preservation and safety of stored products, notably food stocks, covering storage-related problems from the producer through the supply chain to the consumer. Stored products are characterised by having relatively low moisture content and include raw and semi-processed foods, animal feedstuffs, and a range of other durable items, including materials such as clothing or museum artefacts. Research papers on plant extracts/botanicals should contain their chemical characterization, recognition of biologically active component(s), and suitable controls (negative and positive), but excluding routine laboratory screening of candidate plant materials Manuscripts are welcomed on: • the biology, ecology, physiology, behaviour, taxonomy or genetics of pests and spoilage agents • environmental factors influencing insect life cycles • the physical, chemical or biological control of pests and spoilage agents but excluding routine laboratory screening of candidate plant materials • biochemical or behavioural resistance to control measures • storage biotechnology, pest management and decision support systems • the effects of physical and environmental control procedures on the physical and chemical nature of the stored products • the assessment, prevention and control of losses • regulatory, technological and socio-economic subjects relevant to stored products • improvements in the design and structure of the storage environment.
