Advances in Lab-on-Chip Devices
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue will be dedicated to the advances in lab-on-chip technologies and applications. Technologies focused on thin film devices (based on organic and inorganic materials) and label free detection (electrochemical, optical, etc.) will be highly appreciated. Design and fabrication of microfluidic networks are welcomed. Recognition methods based on antibodies, aptamers, quantum dots, graphene and nanoparticles could be addressed.
Applications regarding development of point-of-care devices, devices for agro-food analysis, and for DNA amplification are welcomed.
Prof. Dr. Domenico Caputo
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 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-anonymized 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.
