Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Electrochemical sensors have received widespread application and attention due to their high sensitivity, accuracy, and convenient operation. Since the beginning of this century, electrochemical sensors have experienced rapid development, and various innovative studies have emerged one after another. In recent years, electrochemical sensors have gradually advanced towards miniaturization, microminiaturization, wearability, in vivo analysis, high-throughput analysis, single-cell analysis, single-molecule analysis, and other methods. In this context, we have set up this Special Issue, mainly focusing on the latest preparation methods, application progress, and analysis strategies of electrochemical sensors.

Original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following: new modified electrodes; microelectrodes; flexible sensors; wearable sensors; electrochemical biosensing technology; high-throughput electrochemical sensors; integrated electrochemical sensors; AI-assisted electrochemical sensors; photoelectrochemical sensing technology; and multimodal sensing technology.

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. Molecules is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2700 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.

Bisphenol A (2,2-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)propane, BPA), an endocrine-disrupting chemical with recognized adverse effects on human health and ecosystems, urgently requires convenient, sensitive, and accurate detection methods. In this study, a hierarchical heterostructure was fabricated by incorporating Ti3C2Tx MXene and mesoporous hollow carbon spheres (MHCs) to develop a high-performance electrochemical sensor for BPA. The nanocomposite was thoroughly characterized using SEM, TEM, and XRD, and then applied to modify a glassy carbon electrode (GCE). Under optimized conditions including pH and accumulation time, BPA detection was carried out via differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). The sensor exhibited a wide linear detection range from 10 to 200 μM and a low detection limit of 2.6 μM. Moreover, it was successfully applied to environmental water samples, demonstrating high accuracy and practicality for real-world BPA monitoring. Full article
