Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Micro and nanoparticles are emerging as platforms for tailored biological interactions both at the intracellular and extracellular level. Such platforms are designed by multi-scale approaches as reporting entities for revealing the presence of targets with specific biochemical binders (antibodies, molecular probes, aptamers, peptides) and according to several biomedical signals spanning colorimetric, capacitance, optical, and spectroscopic.
This Special Issue will provide the opportunity to understand, analyze, evaluate and possibly address the challenges that particles pose, highlighting the versatility and flexibility in their synthesis/preparation, their read-out (colorimetric, capacitance, optical, spectroscopic, magnetic, fluorescence) and functions with regard to the integration within miniaturized systems (i.e., microTAS, lab-on-chip, tissue on a chip) to perform next generation applications.
We invite you to contribute with original research papers, as well as comprehensive reviews, aligned with these themes, to advance and improve the actual state-of-the-art in biosensing particles, providing new opportunities, approaches, and solutions to biological and biomedical problems.

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.
