Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Nanozymes, nanomaterials mimicking natural enzyme catalysis, represent a transformative advancement in nanotechnology and biotechnology. These artificial enzymes replicate key catalytic functions while offering superior stability, cost-effectiveness, and unparalleled potential for multifunctional engineering. Their versatility has driven significant research interest, particularly for their application in biosensing and biomedical diagnostics. The critical advantage of nanozymes in diagnostics lies in overcoming the limitations of natural enzymes—such as denaturation sensitivity and high cost—which are major hurdles in developing robust, reliable, and affordable clinical diagnostic tools. The rapid development of nanozyme technology is now enabling groundbreaking innovations in disease diagnosis. This research specifically focuses on the Novel Development of Diagnosis Sensors Based on Nanozymes for Biomedical Applications. This involves the following:
(1) Creating novel nanozymes with tailored catalytic activities (e.g., oxidase-, peroxidase-, and catalase-like) optimized for specific biomarker detection utilizing advanced synthetic and bio-inspired strategies.
(2) Elucidating catalytic mechanisms and structure-property relationships to maximize nanozyme sensitivity, selectivity, and stability within complex biological environments.
(3) Integrating these optimized nanozymes into innovative diagnostic sensor platforms.

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.
