Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

This issue is devoted to the field Microbial Biosensors ranging from detecting growth of microorganisms to the tracking of metabolic activity or drug resistance within microorganism based on nano/microtechnology. Contributions on the integration of the microbial biosensors in small form factor e.g. lab-on-chips are of high interest for this special issue. All types of applications using nano/microtechnology for on-line detection will be accepted.

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. Sensors is an international peer-reviewed Open Access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1800 CHF (Swiss Francs).
