Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The field of electrochemical and optical sensors is experiencing explosive growth with a diverse range of host systems available for the selective complexation and detection of various guest species. It is encouraging to see research exploring new sensing principles and breaking the boundaries between multi-disciplines. Progress in nanobiotechnology and material science offers new functional materials which align the field to reliable, intelligent, and multifunctional sensors. The primary goal of this Special Issue is to develop a platform for researchers and readers to investigate all aspects of recent advancements in electrochemical and optical sensors for biological, medical, and environmental applications. Contributions focused on intercrossing and syncretizing multi-disciplines as well as smart devices are welcome. Both original articles and reviews are welcome.
I look forward to receiving your contributions.

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. 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.
