Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Electrochemical based biosensors have been used extensively in various laboratory, clinical, home care, and point-of-care applications. Nano-catalysts, microfabrication manufacturing processing, the advancement of computer sciences and electronic technology, as well as the identification of newly discovered biomarkers have led the advancement of electrochemical based biosensors to new dimensions.
This special issue invites contributions particularly relating to application-oriented electrochemical based biosensors using innovative development techniques. Examples of application areas include, but are not limited to, different methods of electrochemical detection which can be applied to useful biosensing applications. Many enzymatic reactions produce electrochemically active species such as H2O2, NADH and others which can be used as a foundation to monitor various analytes (biomarkers). Microfabrication processing, including thick- and thin-film techniques, are often employed in the fabrication of biosensor prototypes, and the electrochemical-based biosensors that are produced provide new means in biosensing. Extension of these biosensors to real time, single use, disposable point of care biosensors and minute in vivo biosensors will be of interest to the readers of this special issue.

Submission
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. Papers will be published continuously (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are refereed through a peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Biosensors is an international peer-reviewed Open Access quarterly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. For the first couple of issues the Article Processing Charge (APC) will be waived for well-prepared manuscripts. English correction and/or formatting fees of 250 CHF (Swiss Francs) will be charged in certain cases for those articles accepted for publication that require extensive additional formatting and/or English corrections.

Abstract: This review focuses recent contributions in the development of the hydrogen peroxide biosensors based on the electrochemical methods. Hydrogen peroxide plays a pivotal role in various industrial applications. It is an essential mediator in pharmaceutical, clinical, and environmental research. Several methods, such as titrimetry, spectrometry, chemiluminescence, fluorimetry, chromatography, and electrochemical techniques, have been developed for the determination of hydrogen peroxide. Here, we summarize the recent trends of the development of the electrochemical hydrogen peroxide biosensors.
