Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Electrochemical biosensors integrate biological recognition elements (such as aptamers and proteins) into electrochemical signal transducers, enabling the highly sensitive and specific detection of target molecules. In the detection of DNA/RNA and proteins, these sensors can achieve high sensitivity, making them indispensable analytical tools in molecular diagnostics and precision medicine. Moreover, the integration of electrochemical biosensors into microfluidic chips to form lab-on-a-chip platforms can provide efficient solutions for the rapid and accurate detection of various biomolecules.
Over the past several decades, advances in nanotechnology and bioelectronics have offered new perspectives for miniaturizing and optimizing electrochemical biosensors. Nevertheless, several challenges remain, such as the stability of electrode materials in complex environments. A deeper understanding of the core mechanisms underlying electrochemical biosensing will not only improve the development of innovative strategies for DNA/RNA and protein detection but also lay a solid foundation for constructing more robust and sensitive biosensing platforms.
In this context, we are pleased to launch this Special Issue on “Electrochemical Biosensors for DNA/RNA and Protein Detection”, which will showcase design concepts and recent advancements in various novel electrochemical biosensors. We warmly invite submissions of original research papers covering electrochemical biosensors, as well as review articles analyzing the latest trends and challenges in this field. We look forward to collectively advancing developments and applications in electrochemical biosensors.

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.
