Individual skill

elsevier-food

Shared author-guideline skill for Elsevier food-science journals (Trends in Food Science & Technology, Food Hydrocolloids, LWT, Food Research International, Food Control, Meat Science, Food Policy, Postharvest Biology & Technology, and ~20 more). Use to format or check a manuscript for any Elsevier food journal not covered by its own skill. Covers the common Elsevier Guide-for-Authors structure, Highlights, graphical abstract, reference styles, and figure specs. Triggers: submit to an Elsevier food journal, LWT/Food Hydrocolloids/Trends guidelines, Elsevier food formatting. Also fires when the user wants to publish on/in this journal, format a manuscript for it, or match its reference/citation style.
