Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In recent decades, with the rapid development of the nanomaterials-related research field, more and more researchers have prepared different kinds of biosensors using novel nanomaterials or new nanostructures, combined with various sensing strategies, to achieve the goal of electrochemical or/and optical sensitive detection of target molecules. These biosensors can be applied in the field of food analysis, such as the rapid and accurate detection of pathogens, pesticides, veterinary drug residues, heavy metals, food adulteration, and illegal additives (food safety in a narrow sense). Moreover, these biosensors can be used to detect food ingredients such as sugars, vitamins, enzymes, and proteins much more quickly and cheaply.

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. Sensors 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 2600 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.
