Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is focused on sharing recent advances in the design of electrochemical (bio)sensors for the quantification of biomarkers and analyses of environmental relevance. Since the first biosensor described by Clark and Lyons in the early 1960s, electrochemical biosensors have demonstrated themselves to be very competitive and powerful tools for a large number of applications due to their well-known advantages such as low cost, high sensitivity and selectivity, fast response, miniaturization, and portability. In this sense, it is important to remark on the key role of nano(bio)technology for the design of new schemes oriented to the preparation of the biorecognition layer and the electrochemical transduction of the analytical signal.
Original research articles, reviews, and prospective articles are welcome.
Dr. Pablo R. Dalmasso

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 2200 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.
