Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Biosensors consist of biological components with physical and chemical transducer devices. The investigation on biosensors is an emerging and developing research field. The related research areas include enzyme sensors, microbial sensors, cellular sensors, immune sensors, and virus detection, etc. Biosensors have extremely broad applications, such as life science research, disease diagnosis and monitoring, and environmental quality monitoring, etc. Among various biosensors, more and more researchers found that biomolecules-integrated biosensors have even superior properties, such as excellent biocompatibility and better application stability. Besides, this kind of biosensors has the potential for multiple functional modulation, predictable structural design, controlled high-throughput analysis.
Authors are welcome to submit research articles, communications, reviews, and perspectives focused on fabrication strategies for micro/nanomaterials, synthesis of biomolecules-integrated materials, wearable and portable biosensors, in vivo/in vivo analysis, real-time detection, and single cell monitoring, etc. In addition, this special issue welcomes innovative papers, such as directions of programming and designing biosensor devices in conjunction with concepts such as big data.

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 2700 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.
