Recent Advances in Chemical Sensors for Biological Detection and Environmental Monitoring: Fundamental Science and Applications

Dear Colleagues,

So far, chemical sensors have been applied in many fields, and their rapid development has provided great convenience for human activities. This Special Issue is dedicated to the exceptional contributions of Dalian University of Technology in the field of chemical sensors, spanning from fundamental research to practical applications. The main topics include, but are not limited to, the following research directions: small molecule organic fluorescent sensors and their application research in the biological detection; metal complex phosphorescent sensors and their application in detecting small molecule pollutants; and the development and application of MOFs, COFs, and versatile sensors. The topics include review articles and research articles.

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.
