Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Food safety is one of the most significant issues of people’s livelihood and the national economy. Rapid screening of foodborne pathogens is the key to ensure food safety. Biosensor research has undergone rapid growth in recent years, giving new concepts in biomarker recognition, miniaturization, and multiplex analysis in food safety. In addition, microfluidics and some other micro- and nano-devices provides new strategies to improve the applicability of biosensors for in-field detection. This Special Issue will provide an opportunity for researchers to publish their original achievements related to the biosensors for foodborne pathogens.
The Special Issue welcomes both original research and review articles that address the following non-exhaustive list of topics:
- Novel pretreatment and enrichment methods for food samples;
- Novel sensing elements;
- Signal amplification strategies;
- Novel nanomaterials with controllable characteristics;
- Microfluidic or Sample-in-Result-out system.

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.
