Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The early detection of chronic diseases is an important task in modern research. Biomarker screening can help in the diagnosis of chronic diseases such as diabetes and heart disease. Current technologies available on the market are not satisfactory solutions for medical diagnoses. There is a need to improve the detection of biomarkers associated with chronic disease. Electrochemical biosensing strategies may support the detection of chronic disease biomarkers.
This Special Issue, “Advances in Electrochemical Sensors for Biomedical Applications”, covers research on the point of care or wearable-based sensors for the rapid detection of various analytes, including biomarkers, therapeutic drugs, and physiologically relevant ions, with the aid of electrochemical transduction techniques. Here, the main focus is on the development of hand-held point-of-care devices and smart wearable sensing devices with advanced biosensing strategies.
We encourage authors to submit research articles and reviews to this Special Issue to share your work, insights, and recent accomplishments with the biosensor research community.

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.
