About INFORM
What is INFORM? How do I subscribe, write an article, or advertise?
In This Section
INFORM magazine, an AOCS member benefit, is an easy way for professionals in the fats, oils, surfactants, and detergents areas to keep current about the latest research, developments, and critical issues. Articles are written by AOCS science writers or globally recognized experts and often include references, figures, and tables. INFORM provides content that is similar to that of a peer-reviewed journal, in a less-technical, abbreviated magazine format that is easy for professionals in all fields and at all levels to read and understand. Consequently, articles are widely read, saved, shared, and cited in research, government, and industry.
INFORM feature articles include comprehensive reviews and shorter articles about research, new analytical methods and technologies, processing technologies that improve efficiency and sustainability, health and nutrition, formulation science, critical business issues, and many other topics. Each issue also includes patent abstracts compiled by a registered US patent agent, journal references assembled by a team of experts in a variety of areas, and coverage of regulatory issues from around the globe.
