Micro/Nano-Biosensors for Environmental Applications

This special issue belongs to the section “Environmental Biosensors and Biosensing“.

Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Pollutant monitoring plays a pivotal role in addressing pressing global environmental challenges, including soil degradation, water pollution, and air contamination. Recent breakthroughs in optical sensors, electrochemical sensors, micro/nanosensors, wearable devices, MEMS/NEMS, and biosensors have significantly enhanced the precision and efficiency of environmental parameter detection, opening new avenues for advanced pollution control.

To advance knowledge in this critical field, we are pleased to announce a Special Issue entitled “Micro/Nano-Biosensors for Environmental Applications”. This Special Issue aims to establish a high-impact interdisciplinary platform for discussions of the latest advances, key challenges, and future trends in micro- and nanosensing technologies for environmental monitoring. By compiling cutting-edge research from leading experts worldwide, this collection will foster in-depth discussions and knowledge exchange among researchers and industry professionals.

We warmly invite submissions of original research articles, comprehensive reviews, and case studies, covering (but not limited to) the following topics: MEMS-based sensing systems, nanomaterial-enhanced sensors, and emerging sensing technologies for pollutant monitoring. Your contributions will not only enrich the scientific discourse but also provide valuable insights to the global research community, driving innovation in pollution detection and mitigation technologies.

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.
