Advances in Electrochemical Biosensors: Applications, Challenges, and Prospect

Dear Colleagues,

The electrochemical biosensor is the analytical devices that transduce biochemical events such as enzyme-substrate reaction and antigen-antibody interaction to electrical signals (e.g., current, voltage, impedance, etc.). Electrochemical biosensors offer a promising alternative to conventional analytical methods, providing a convenient detection method that can instantly obtain quantitative signals with minimal equipment. Electrochemical biosensors have a wide range of application in the area of food safety, environmental monitoring, and medical diagnosis. The development of novel and effective electrochemical biosensors has become a highly active research field.

This Special Issue, entitled “Advances in Electrochemical Biosensors: Applications, Challenges and Prospect”, focuses on current advancements and application of electrochemical biosensors in different areas. The scope of this Special Issue includes, but is not limited to, the following topics:

• New technology or concepts in the fabrication of electrochemical biosensors;
• Novel design of electrode structure;
• Advanced materials for electrochemical biosensor design and construction;
• Improvements in the sensitivity and specificity of electrochemical biosensors;
• Novel sample preparation methods for electrochemical detection in complex matrices;
• The combination of electrochemical biosensors with other advanced techniques;
• Technical, review or mini review articles about the applications, challenges, and future direction of electrochemical biosensors.

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. Processes 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 2400 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.
