Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Wearable sweat-sensing technologies have received wide attention for personalized health monitoring with continuous and molecular-level insight in a noninvasive manner. Substantial progress has been made in developing wearable sweat biosensors into various formats, such as patches, tattoos, and fabrics for detecting different biomarkers, e.g., glucose, lactate, electrolytes, and pH. They possess many appealing characteristics, e.g., lightweight, flexibility, stretchability, and conformability, which are important for wearable applications. In this Special Issue, we would like to invite you to contribute research articles, reviews, or perspectives related to “Advances in Wearable Sweat Biosensing Technologies”. The welcomed topics include, but are not limited to, biosensing material synthesis, biosensor fabrication, sweat extraction, health monitoring, disease detection, and sweat-sensing technology development.
Kind regards,
Dr. Lie Wang
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.
