Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Recent advances in biochemical sensing are increasingly governed by progress in integrated circuit and system design, which directly determines achievable sensitivity, noise performance, power efficiency, and scalability. As biochemical sensing platforms move beyond laboratory demonstrations toward wearable, portable, and embedded systems, challenges such as ultra-low signal acquisition, robust signal conditioning, energy-efficient operation, and long-term system stability must be addressed primarily through circuit- and system-level solutions.
This Special Issue will highlight integrated circuits and systems as the central drivers of innovation in biochemical sensing rather than sensing materials or biochemical assays alone. We particularly seek contributions that showcase how analog, mixed-signal, and system-on-chip (SoC) architectures, including sensor interface circuits and low-noise front-end electronics, play a defining role in system performance. Other topics of interest include embedded signal processing, hardware–software co-design, wireless and battery-less system integration, and fully integrated sensing platforms. By focusing on circuit- and system-centric design methodologies, this Special Issue aims to bridge the gap between biochemical sensing applications and integrated electronic systems. The collected works will highlight how advances in circuit architecture and system integration enable reliable, scalable, and deployable biochemical sensing solutions for biomedical, environmental, and point-of-care applications.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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.
