Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Electrochemical sensors play a crucial role in modern analytical science by enabling rapid, sensitive, and cost-effective detection of chemical and biological substances in a wide range of applications. Research in electrochemical sensors spans a wide range of domains, from the fabrication of high-performant electrodes to novel nanomaterial synthesis, as well as their integration and detection of complex and emerging analytes in real matrices. Technologies such as chemometric sensor arrays detecting multiple analytes, powered by machine learning, are making significant progress. Emerging areas of research include the combination of electrochemical sensing with other transduction principles and the use of eco-friendly materials and fabrication methodologies for sensor development. However, the transition of electrochemical sensors from laboratory to real-time applications requires research in several other directions, such as improving their operational lifetime and demonstrating their potential in real environments. Accordingly, this Special Issue seeks to showcase research papers, short communications, and review articles that focus on (1) implementing novel techniques and materials to develop advanced electrochemical sensors, (2) using electrochemical sensors to monitor complex targets and their potential to detect in real matrices, and (3) expanding research and development towards their transition to real-time 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 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.
