Nanostructured Electrochemical Sensors: From Materials Design to Application Development

Dear Colleagues,

The development of electrochemical sensors is a rapidly growing and popular area. In recent years, electrochemical sensors have attracted a great deal of attention in chemical and biological studies due to their high sensitivity, simplicity and reliability. Electrochemical sensors, as important analytical devices, are widely used for the determination of a broad range of analytes in several fields, including food control, environmental monitoring, clinical analysis, and process control. The new generation of sensors based on nanomaterials has attracted much attention in recent years because of their important advantages over traditional devices. As a rule, such sensors can be easily miniaturized, flexible, and have various shapes. Nanomaterial-based sensors also fit perfectly into the current development of analytical sciences that led to the production of complete maintenance-free, durable, and reliable ion sensors.

This Special Issue titled “Nanostructured Electrochemical Sensors: From Materials Design to Application Development” aims to cover recent advances in the design, fabrication of nanostructured electrochemical sensors, as well as the application of sensors in various analytical tasks including their use in environmental monitoring, healthcare, and biomedical diagnostics. Review articles, short communications, and full-size research papers are all welcome.

I look forward to and welcome your participation in this Special Issue.

Dr. Pei Meng Woi
Guest Editor

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. 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.
