Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
It is our pleasure to invite you to submit your latest work to the Special Issue “Microfluidic Biochips and Biosensors" of Applied Sciences (IF 2.474) MDPI. This Special Issue will cover novel microfluidic devices and biosensors for several applications (e.g., life-science, environmental monitoring, food control, and security). The key aspects that will be covered are as follows: liquid manipulation on the nano/microscale, on-chip sample preparation, novel biosensor technology, advanced materials, and devices and fabrication techniques for the sensitive and selective detection of bio-analytes (e.g., protein, nucleic acids, virus, and bacteria). Experimental and theoretical and numerical works involving these topics are welcome.

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. Applied Sciences 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 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.
