Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent decades, microfluidic biochips have been used in numerous applications for biomedical research, including, but not limited to, organ-on-a-chip technologies, microscale flow control, microfluidic biosensors, droplet generation, drug delivery, DNA analysis, immunoassays, cell culturing, single-cell analysis, pathogen detection (viruses and bacteria), flow cytometry, bioprinting, tissue engineering, separation techniques, bioanalytical systems, etc.
Microfluidic biochips have revolutionized the way biomedical research is conducted and have expedited the pace of the research. They have also brought fundamental researchers closer to practical applications.
We cordially invite you to submit groundbreaking research papers to this Special Issue on the biomedical applications of microfluidic chips. We are seeking original and innovative contributions with this focus. This is an excellent opportunity for you to share your latest findings, advancements, and insights with the active scientific community.
This Special Issue aims to foster interdisciplinary collaboration and promote cutting-edge research on the application of microfluidic devices. We encourage submissions about a diverse range of applications. Whether your research focuses on fundamental principles or practical applications, we welcome your valuable contribution.
Prof. Dr. Ji-Yen Cheng
Guest Editor
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. Biosensors 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.
