Dear Colleagues,

Transistor-based biosensors have exhibited outstanding performances in the last decade in terms of selectivity, limit of detection, and portability. Thanks to the properties of active materials, transistor-based biosensors can be realized on flexible substrates with cost-effective printing techniques, characteristics that make these devices suitable to realize diagnostic platforms at the point of care.

This Special Issue aims to collect papers on the latest advances in the field of biosensing for diagnostics, underlining proof-of-concept innovations in terms of technology, targets, and portability. Applications to achieve biosensing with samples from patients and technological solutions for point-of-care applications are welcome.

In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following: field-effect transistor (FET) biosensors for diagnostics based on organic semiconductors, carbon nanotubes, graphene, and inorganic semiconductors; microfluidics platforms for FETs; and new device architectures for point-of-care applications.

We look forward to receiving your contributions.

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.
