Dear Colleagues,

Biosensors are attracting significant interest in the fields of medicine, environment, and the food industry. This is because of their potential applications in the detection and quantification of a wide range of toxic agents (contaminates such as pesticides; heavy metals; and volatile organic compounds found in food, air, and drinking water capable of causing intoxication, disease, or chronic illness); diverse, clinically important pharmacologically species (pathogenic organisms, active molecules, microbial metabolites, and disease markers); and  by-products of the food industry processes (e.g., ethanol, glucose, and bioactive compounds to indirectly measure the process conditions and quality of the products). Micro and nanotechnology are playing an increasingly important role in the progress of biosensors, allowing the development of sophisticated instrumentation in cheap and portable microsystems. The goal of this Special Issue is to encourage scientists to publish as much detail as possible related to all aspects of biosensors based on micro and nanotechnology, from their theory and design to the applications of complete sensing devices.

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.
