Fluorescent Probes for Bioimaging and Biosensors
This special issue belongs to the section “Biosensor and Bioelectronic Devices“.
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The development of fluorescent probes in the field of bioimaging and biosensors is a cutting-edge area of multidisciplinary intersection and rapid technological advancement. Fluorescent probes have become an indispensable tool for bioimaging due to their wide range of applications in biomass detection, cellular imaging, in vivo biochemical reaction process tracking, and disease biomarker monitoring. Compared with traditional bioimaging techniques, fluorescent probes have the advantages of real-time imaging, in-depth visualization, and low damage to biological samples, making them increasingly popular. In this Special Issue, we will focus on the latest research progress, innovative applications, and future trends in the field of fluorescent probes in bioimaging and biosensors, including protein-mediated fluorescent probes, organic fluorescent probes, fluorescent biosensors, near-infrared two-region fluorescent probes, genetically encoded fluorescent sensors, etc. Moreover, this Special Issue will also focus on interdisciplinary collaborations and performance optimization of probes with the aim of providing researchers with a platform for exchanging and sharing the latest research results and promoting scientific developments in this field.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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.
