Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue, titled “Biosensors for Monitoring and Diagnostics”, encompasses the critical role of biosensors in advancing healthcare practices. Specifically focusing on electrochemical and optical sensors based on different recognition systems, this research will explore their significance in disease monitoring and diagnosis. This compilation of research and findings explores the potential of electrochemical and optical biosensors to enable the rapid and accurate detection of biomarkers associated with various health conditions. This Special Issue addresses technological advancements and innovations in the engineering of biological components and the design of electrochemical biosensors, highlighting their sensitivity, selectivity, and real-time monitoring capabilities. The main topics include the use of engineering components to facilitate electron transfer and recognition for the immobilization and construction of biosensors, increasing sensitivity, selectivity, and stability. This Special Issue will also cover the role of artificial intelligence and bioinformatics in designing the biological components of biosensors. It will also explore the integration of electrochemical/optical biosensors with emerging technologies, such as wearable devices and point-of-care systems, to facilitate seamless and widespread deployment for monitoring and diagnosis. Overall, this Special Issue will serve as a comprehensive resource for understanding the current landscape and future prospects of electrochemical/optical biosensors in healthcare applications.

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.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2200 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.
