This special issue is devoted to DNA Sensors and Biosensors for the detection of DNA hybridization events, the detection of base-pair mismatches, and the detection of DNA-molecule interactions including aptamers, DNA-protein and DNA-small molecule interactions. Contributions are invited describing optical and electrochemical detection methods.
