Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In the last 20 years, the construction of chemical and biological sensors has become one of the most rapidly emerging research fields. It is a multidisciplinary task which comprises basic and applied knowledge of chemistry, physics, biology, electronics, software design, and materials science. Many research concepts in this field have been finalized as marketable products with a great potential for application, making life easier and safer. The application of carbon-based materials in sensor design relies on their unique chemical and structural properties. This Special Issue welcomes outstanding innovative contributions presenting the application of carbon black, glassy carbon, activated carbon, graphite, graphene, diamond, fullerenes, carbon nanotubes, carbon dots, and carbon-based hybrids to chemical and biological sensing. Other carbon-based materials in addition to those mentioned are also interesting. We also welcome contributions to the review of key trends and topics in the field of carbon-based materials for application in chemical and biological sensing.

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. 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.
