Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Fluorescence is a type of important signal in biosensors, which is usually highly sensitive. It has been paid significant attention in biotracing (e.g., intracellular protein interaction or location), diagnosis (e.g., pathogen diagnosis for human, livestock, and crops), analytical chemistry (e.g., detection contaminant/chemical in food or environmental samples), and other fields. Fluorescent materials include organic compounds, proteins, inorganic fluorescent materials, etc. Resonance fluorescence, polarization fluorescence, time-resolved fluorescence, and other methods have emerged. This Special Issue focuses on fluorescence biosensing, including (but not limited to) new methods, new devices, important new applications, etc. We invite researchers to share their work on fluorescent biosensors, and original research articles and comprehensive reviews will be considered for publication.

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.
