Advanced Biosensors for Diagnostic Applications

This special issue belongs to the section “(Bio)chemical Sensing“.

Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Biosensors offer a powerful tool for the rapid, sensitive, and specific detection of biomarkers associated with diseases. These devices work by converting a biological response into a measurable signal, which can then be quantified to provide crucial information about a patient's health status. Biosensors have revolutionized the field of medical diagnostics by enabling point-of-care testing (POCT), reducing the time and cost of laboratory analyses. They are particularly useful for detecting biomarkers for diseases such as cancer, diabetes, infectious diseases, and cardiovascular disorders. The ability to miniaturize biosensors has also allowed for their integration into wearable devices, facilitating continuous health monitoring. One of the key advantages of biosensors in diagnostics is their potential for real-time detection, which is crucial for timely medical interventions. Furthermore, advancements in nanotechnology and biochemistry are continuously enhancing the sensitivity and specificity of biosensors, making them even more valuable in early disease detection and personalized medicine. As the field evolves, biosensors are expected to play an even larger role in improving healthcare outcomes globally.

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.
