Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Electrochemical sensors and biosensors are at the forefront of analytical innovation, driven by the rapid development of emerging materials and nanotechnologies. The integration of advanced materials—such as metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), 2D materials (graphene, MXenes), ion liquids, conductive polymers, nanocomposites, functionalized nanoparticles and deep eutectic solvents (DESs)—has opened exciting possibilities for the creation of next-generation sensing devices with enhanced performance.
These materials bring unique structural, electronic, and surface properties that contribute to higher sensitivity, faster response times, improved stability, and the potential for miniaturization and point-of-care use. Combined with electrochemical transduction, which offers advantages like low-cost instrumentation, high selectivity, portability, and ease of integration, they form the foundation for highly versatile and reliable sensor platforms.
This Special Issue aims to highlight recent innovations and interdisciplinary research in the design, fabrication, and application of electrochemical sensors and biosensors empowered by novel materials. Contributions that explore fundamental insights, practical applications (e.g., environmental monitoring, clinical diagnostics, food safety), and breakthroughs in materials science and device engineering are especially welcome.
We look forward to your submissions that help shape the future of sensing technology through the synergy of electrochemistry and emerging materials.

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. Chemosensors 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 2000 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.
