Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
At the global level, great advances have been achieved towards new approaches in biosensing and biomedical monitoring devices since human health screening has been playing a crucial role. Nowadays, the healthcare sector involves a diagnosis based on biosensors, which are electrical devices that measure biological signals and convert them into electrical signals. As in many different technological sections, nanomaterials have demonstrated their appropriateness for biosensing applications. The intelligent use of such nano-objects led to clearly enhanced performances with increased sensitivity and lowered detection limits of several orders of magnitudes. Specifically, nanomaterials used as transduction elements in biosensing and biomedical monitoring devices include nanomaterials with high stability and high carrier capacity, high detection sensitivity, large surface area, high electrical and thermal conductivity, and color tunability.
This Special Issue will focus on the evolution of biosensing and biomedical monitoring, the types of biosensors based on their receptors and transducers, modern approaches employed in biosensors using nanomaterials, and the recent advancement of biosensing technology with the expansion of nanotechnology.
Dr. Elena Dilonardo

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. Bioengineering 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 2700 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.
