Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue focuses on recent developments in the field of “Applications of Raman Techniques in Biosensing”. Technological advances of the last few years in lasers, solid-state photodetectors, and optical elements have significantly boosted the sensitivity of Raman non-invasive techniques, which provide high, 3D-resolution and selective label-free sensing of biomolecular environments. These Raman scattering techniques include, but are not limited to, spontaneous coherent and resonance Raman, SERS, SERRS, TERS in (micro-)spectroscopy, and imaging. Exciting application fields for these sensing techniques are biophysical studies, biomedical diagnostics, monitoring of drug–cell interactions, single-cell and organelle studies, and many others.
You are kindly invited to submit your original articles or reviews.
Dr. Andrey KuzminGuest 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.
