Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Wearable bioelectronics, such as e-skin and electrochemical sweat sensors, have emerged as promising technology for monitoring and diagnosing various physiochemical health indicators. Textiles, as one of the most commonly used wearable platforms, have enormous potential for the development of wearable bioelectronics. Recent advances in stretchable textile-based materials have facilitated the development of wearable bioelectronic devices with improved comfort and flexibility. Such devices are capable of monitoring various physiochemical health indicators, providing healthcare professionals with real-time data, and assisting patients in better managing their conditions. As research in this area continues to develop, new and innovative wearable bioelectronic devices that are both highly functional and comfortable to wear are likely to emerge. Stretchable textile-based wearable bioelectronic devices have the potential to revolutionize biomedical sensing and wearable electronics. This will allow for improvements in healthcare outcomes, athletic performance, big data, and even fashion.

In this regard, we welcome submissions in the exciting area of stretchable textiles for wearable bioelectronic devices, and we eagerly anticipate new insights to be gained from the new research.

With the innovation of wearable technology and the rapid development of biosensors, wearable biosensors based on flexible textile materials have become a hot topic. Such textile-based wearable biosensors promote the development of health monitoring, motion detection and medical management, and they have become an important support tool for human healthcare monitoring. Textile-based wearable biosensors not only non-invasively monitor various physiological indicators of the human body in real time, but they also provide accurate feedback of individual health information. This review examines the recent research progress of fabric-based wearable biosensors. Moreover, materials, detection principles and fabrication methods for textile-based wearable biosensors are introduced. In addition, the applications of biosensors in monitoring vital signs and detecting body fluids are also presented. Finally, we also discuss several challenges faced by textile-based wearable biosensors and the direction of future development. Full article

Given the advancements in modern living standards and technological development, conventional smart devices have proven inadequate in meeting the demands for a high-quality lifestyle. Therefore, a revolution is necessary to overcome this impasse and facilitate the emergence of flexible electronics. Specifically, there is a growing focus on health detection, necessitating advanced flexible preparation technology for biosensor-based smart wearable devices. Nowadays, numerous flexible products are available on the market, such as electronic devices with flexible connections, bendable LED light arrays, and flexible radio frequency electronic tags for storing information. The manufacturing process of these devices is relatively straightforward, and their integration is uncomplicated. However, their functionality remains limited. Further research is necessary for the development of more intricate applications, such as intelligent wearables and energy storage systems. Taking smart wear as an example, it is worth noting that the current mainstream products on the market primarily consist of bracelet-type health testing equipment. They exhibit limited flexibility and can only be worn on the wrist for measurement purposes, which greatly limits their application diversity. Flexible energy storage and flexible display also face the same problem, so there is still a lot of room for development in the field of flexible electronics manufacturing. In this review, we provide a brief overview of the developmental history of flexible devices, systematically summarizing representative preparation methods and typical applications, identifying challenges, proposing solutions, and offering prospects for future development.
