Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Immunoassays and biosensors have been extensively employed in various fields, including clinical, food safety, and environmental monitoring. Immunoassays are continuously being developed in order to produce simple, rapid, field-portable tests that may be either qualitative or quantitative in nature, especially in relation to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. The application of new biorecognition elements and novel transducers has also led to a rapid increase in publications concerning the development of biosensors. However, further innovations are required to strengthen the use of immunoassays and biosensors for numerous practical applications; these developments include, but are not limited to, antibodies; new biomaterials; signal-amplification strategies; bio-conjugate techniques; sample pre-treatment methods; automation; and multiplex detection.
This Special Issue aims to collect original articles and reviews addressing the fabrication, manufacturing, innovative application, challenges, and future prospects of immunoassays and biosensors in various fields, including medical diagnostics, public health, environmental monitoring, agriculture, and food.

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. Biosensors is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
