Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue will showcase recent advances in the design and engineering of advanced nanosensors enabled by novel materials and electrochemical principles. We welcome original research and timely reviews that address (i) innovative sensing architectures and transduction strategies (amperometric, voltammetric, potentiometric, and impedimetric), (ii) new functional materials for electrochemical signal generation and amplification (nanostructured metals, carbon nanomaterials, 2D materials, MOFs/COFs, conducting polymers, and organic–inorganic hybrids), and (iii) device integration toward flexible, wearable, wireless, and multiplexed platforms. Topics of interest include biointerfaces and antifouling layers, micro/nanofabrication and printing, microfluidics and lab-on-a-chip systems, in situ/operando sensing in energy-storage and catalytic systems, and data analytics for robust, real-world deployment. Applications may span healthcare diagnostics and continuous monitoring, environmental and food safety, industrial process control, and smart infrastructures, provided that the research highlights clear links between materials innovation, electrochemical operating principles, and sensing performance.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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. Applied Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2400 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.
