Advances in Voltammetric Sensors

Dear Colleagues,

Voltammetric methods, such as cyclic voltammetry (CV), linear sweep voltammetry, stripping voltammetry, differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), and square wave voltammetry (SWV), have been widely used to detect or monitor diverse analytes, such as biomolecules (e.g., dopamine, glucose, uric acid), drug molecules (e.g., acetaminophen, caffeine), gases (e.g., oxygen, amine, hydrogen sulfide), and ions (e.g., Arsenite, mercury, and lead ions). Recently, the development of micro- and nano-scale manufacturing greatly contributes to the miniaturization of voltammetric sensors, such as portable, microfluidic, and wearable sensors. Miniaturized sensors have the apparent advantage of ultra-high sensitivity to allow the detection of trace amounts of analytes and are easy to integrate and assemble into customized sensors according to the detection environment. Accordingly, this Special Issue seeks to showcase research papers, communications, and review articles that focus on: (i) novel methodological or fundamental developments in voltammetric sensors; (ii) novel designs, fabrication, and modeling of voltammetric sensors based on the sensory units and structure optimization; and (iii) new developments of applying voltammetric sensors of any kind in personalized health monitoring (e.g., sweat sensors and biosensors), environmental monitoring and protection (e.g., poisonous ions and chemical compounds) and gaseous environmental monitoring.

We look forward to receiving your submissions!

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-anonymized peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Micromachines 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 2100 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.
