Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Various diseases are responsible for countless deaths around the world. Among these, cancer is particularly prevalent, being defined as a group of diseases involving abnormal cell growth that spreads to other parts of the body. Heart disease is another disease associated with a large number of deaths. In this sense, the early detection of cardiac biomarkers, as well as the detection of biomarkers of different types of cancer, is essential for accurate diagnosis and timely treatment. It is also important to highlight that a group of infectious and parasitic diseases in tropical and subtropical regions of the planet, especially in places that are difficult to access, are experiencing internal conflicts and poverty, and receive little attention from the government and health agencies, are classified as neglected tropical diseases. Therefore, electrochemical sensors and biosensors represent indispensable tools in clinical analyses due to their ability to accurately and efficiently detect and quantify substances in complex samples. This Special Issue highlights recent research and advances in the field of electrochemical sensing, highlighting its significant influence on analytical techniques across a wide range of sectors. The articles presented in this Special Issue will demonstrate the convergence of electrochemistry, sensors, and biosensor technology in early biomedical diagnosis.
This Special Issue welcomes the submission of both review articles and original research papers whose scope includes, but is not limited to, the following topics:
- Innovative electrochemical sensor design;
- Technologies for the development of point-of-care electrochemical devices;
- The integration of artificial intelligence in electrochemical biosensing;
- Novel materials and bioreceptors for applications in electrochemical sensors and biosensors;
- Emerging applications in biomedical analysis.

Manuscript Submission Information
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. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short 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 thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Analytica is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly 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 1000 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
