Advanced Nanosensors and Nanomechanical Sensing Technology for Environment and Health Monitoring
This special issue belongs to the section “Nanosensors“.
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Nanosensors and nanomechanical sensing technology represent a rapidly developing and highly promising area for the measurement of various biological and environmental parameters at a nanoscale. Due to their small size, high detection accuracy, and rapid response, such sensors have been widely used in fields such as medical diagnosis, environmental pollution monitoring, precision instrument operation status monitoring, and implantable medicine. This Special Issue aims to bring together researchers in this area to break down barriers and develop innovative nanosensors and nanomechanical sensing technology for environment and health monitoring. Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Biomedical nanosensors for healthcare;
- Wearable or implantable nanodevices for health parameters monitoring;
- Technologies for mechanical parameters detection in micro/nanoscale;
- Nanomechanical sensors for human motion detection;
- Chemical nanosensors for pollutants detection in daily living environment;
- New applications or improvement of existing biochemical nanosensors.

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.
