Academic journal

There are different types of peer-reviewed research journals; these specific publications are about food science.

An academic journal (or scholarly journal or scientific journal) is a periodical publication in which scholarship relating to a particular academic discipline is published. They serve as permanent and transparent forums for the dissemination, scrutiny, and discussion of research. Unlike professional magazines or trade magazines, the articles are mostly written by researchers rather than staff writers employed by the journal. They nearly universally require peer review for research articles or other scrutiny from contemporaries competent and established in their respective fields.^[1]^[2] Academic journals trace their origins back to the 17th century.

As of 2012^[update], it is estimated that over 28,100 active academic journals are in publication, with scopes ranging from the general sciences, as seen in journals like Science and Nature, to highly specialized fields.^[3]^[4] These journals publish a variety of articles including original research, review articles, and perspectives.
