New Sensors and Biosensors for Non Invasive Detection Applied to Food, Environment and Health

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue invites you to present your research and your applications in the field of non-invasive analysis using physicochemical sensors or biosensors. With this Special Issue, we want to show the capacities of certain sensors (acoustic, optical, gas, chemical, etc.) to inform and detect with being more or less in contact with the environment in which the analyte is found. Numerous applications already exist in various domains of sciences, such as food control and process monitoring (quality control of food production, adulteration detection, kinetics of chemical reactions, etc.), the medical field (measuremens of physiological parameters for medical monitoring and diagnostics of phathologies, physiological functions repair, etc.), and in biotechnology (bioreactors, etc.) or in the environment (air/water quality, toxicity assessment, security of goods and people, etc.). Similarly, biosensors can be developed between these sensors without being in direct contact with the specific bioelement. This new approach opens up applications in all major areas of activity. All aspects are considered, ranging from fundamental studies to industrial applications through data processing and process automation involving sensors or biosensors.

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.
