Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Electrochemical sensing technologies play a critical role in modern analytical science, enabling rapid, sensitive, and cost-effective detection across environmental monitoring, biomedical diagnostics, food safety, industrial process control, and security applications. The integration of electrochemical sensors with microfluidics, flexible electronics, wearable platforms, and Internet-of-Things (IoT) systems is transforming traditional laboratory-based analysis into point-of-care and field-deployable technologies. Emerging signal processing approaches, including machine learning and artificial intelligence-assisted data analysis, are further improving detection accuracy and enabling the establishment of multiplexed sensing systems. Addressing global challenges such as environmental pollution, infectious diseases, and sustainable industrial development requires robust and scalable sensing solutions, and electrochemical platforms are uniquely positioned to meet these needs due to their inherent sensitivity, low power consumption, and compatibility with miniaturization.
This Special Issue aims to present the most recent advances in electrochemical sensing mechanisms, material innovation, device engineering, and practical implementation strategies.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Advanced electrode materials (nanostructured metals, carbon nanomaterials, conductive polymers, MXenes);
- Electrochemical biosensors (enzyme-, antibody-, aptamer-, and MIP-based systems);
- Wearable and flexible electrochemical sensing platforms;
- AI-assisted electrochemical data interpretation.

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. 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.
