Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to announce a new Special Issue collection of the journal Symmetry entitled “Symmetry in Biosensors”.
Significant progress has been achieved in the field of bio-photoelectric sensing with the development of a sophisticated sensing platform that utilizes microsensors. This area of research focuses on exploring novel biosensing techniques designed for early disease detection, ensuring food safety, and monitoring environmental conditions. A notable breakthrough includes the development of a rapid liquid biopsy method that simplifies the processes of biomarker separation, enrichment, and identification in trace samples, reducing the procedure to just two minutes. The remarkable sensitivity of these detection capabilities has drastically improved the precision and effectiveness of cancer diagnostics and food safety evaluations.
This Special Issue aims to investigate how symmetry principles can enhance the sensitivity, accuracy, and reliability of biosensors in detecting biomarkers, particularly in the realms of cancer diagnostics and food safety. Topics within this Special Issue cover bio-photoelectric sensing, microsensors, trace detection techniques, liquid biopsy methods, biomarker research, and advancements in technologies related to cancer diagnostics and food safety. By highlighting the role of symmetry in biosensors, this Special Issue strives to propel advancements in the field of biosensing and pave the way for innovative solutions in healthcare and environmental monitoring. In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome.
I look forward to receiving your contributions.
Prof. Dr. XiaoGang Lin
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. Symmetry is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2400 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.
