Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The chemical sensor in a flow analysis system is crucial for determining its analytical performance, cost, and possibilities for its miniaturization and automation. The rapid progress in sensor science in recent years has resulted in the development of flow analysis systems with enhanced analytical capabilities. At the same time, novel and exciting applications of established sensors in flow analysis have also been reported in the literature. Therefore, we have decided that it is timely to compose a Special Issue of Sensors focusing on the important role sensors play in flow analysis. You are invited to submit manuscripts illustrating the suitability of newly developed sensors for flow analysis applications, as well as manuscripts describing novel applications of established sensors in solving real life analytical problems.
Prof. Dr. Spas D. Kolev
Guest Editor
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.
