Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue, entitled “Nanomaterial-Based Sensors: Design, Development and Applications”, aims to explore the advances and challenges in integrating nanomaterials into (bio)sensing applications from the macro- to the nanoscale. Advanced materials offer the advantage of providing better sensing capabilities in terms of accuracy, reliability, sensitivity, and reproducibility. A variety of nanostructured materials, such as carbon materials (MWCNTs, graphene, quantum dots, etc.), metal nanoparticles, nanocomposites, conductive polymers, and so on, present exceptional attributes such as providing platforms for immobilization, catalytic properties, and optical and electroactive labels. Consequently, sensors based on nanomaterials overcome some analytical limitations and increase the scope of target analyte detection, including pharmaceuticals, biomolecules, environmentally hazardous heavy metals, pesticides, and pollutants at the micro- and nanolevel.
We welcome the submission of original research articles, short communications, and reviews featuring recent advances and developments in chemical (bio)sensors, microfluidic devices, lab-on-a-chip, organ-on-a-chip, and sensor arrays, in which the integration of nanomaterials is a key element.

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. Chemosensors 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.
