Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Electrochemistry technologies in bioanalysis represent the culmination of a comprehensive understanding of the benefits and challenges of applying electrochemical and electroanalytical-based techniques in analyzing biological samples. Proper detailing of the measurement of samples from the host with/without pre-sampling steps is required. This Special Issue is dedicated to covering the real insights for key experimental designs, measurements in different biological environments, mechanistic pathways, and theoretical aspects defining the principle of analysis, its bottlenecks, and its edge over different conventional prototypes. Discussion of various emerging topics of immunosensor fabrication, biocatalysis, bioadditives for better fabrication of electrodes, the interaction of biological samples with the transducer element, the essential selectivity and specificity for focusing on different proteins is emphasized. Furthermore, the role of electrochemistry technologies in the different potential areas of food and environmental analysis, disease biomarkers/metabolites, water pollution, microbial detection, etc., is also of interest. In this respect, different techniques are explored, such as voltammetric, impedimetric potentiometric, and conductometric-based signals. The use of separation science in conjugation with the electrochemical detection of bioanalysis provides an edge over classical methods and is being prompted by advancements in novel sensing materials and manufacturing approaches.

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. Electrochem is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly 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 1000 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.
