Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Electrochemical sensors and biosensors represent a promising solution for the affordable, quick, and decentralized testing of complex samples and are accessible even to those with minimal training. They hold significant potential for food and environmental analysis, but several technical and commercial challenges must first be addressed in order to fully realize their benefits.
This Special Issue of Biosensors, titled “Sensors for Environmental Monitoring and Food Safety”, aims to showcase the latest advancements in this dynamic field. We invite you to contribute research that highlights recent developments and applications in this field. Our focus includes both electrochemical and non-electrochemical sensors, utilizing classical and advanced techniques such as enzymes, antibodies, DNA, aptamers, molecularly imprinted polymers, and nanotechnology. We welcome submissions in the form of reviews, communications, and research articles.
