Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
(Bio)electrochemical sensors demonstrate promising applications in many emerging fields, such as food safety detection, environmental pollutant monitoring, and personalized healthcare. Among them, (bio)electrochemical sensors based on modified multifunctional nanomaterials are favored for their unique properties; for example, high electrocatalytic activity, large surface area and excellent biocompatibility. Nanomaterials (carbon nanotubes, graphene, carbon dots, black phosphorus, MXene, etc.) serve a critical role in the fabrication of novel (bio)electrochemical sensors to address the increasingly complex requirements for environmental monitoring, food safety, health monitoring, point-of-care diagnostics, and wearable devices. Notably, advanced sensors developed based on nanomaterials and nanotechnology combined with flexible wearable devices exhibit tremendous application potential, enabling the application of portable and intelligent wearable devices to human life.
This Special Issue is devoted to advanced (bio)electrochemical sensors based on the integration of multifunctional nanomaterials and will feature a comprehensive selection of recent research work, short communications, and review articles focusing on nanomaterials, design, fabrication methods, and multi-scenario applications of nanomaterial-based constructed electrochemical sensors. All manuscripts considered for publication in this section will undergo a rigorous peer review process, and decisions will be made based on the recommendations of independent reviewers.
Potential topics include, but are not limited to:
- Electrochemical (bio)sensors;
- Synthesis methods and structures of novel functional nanomaterials;
- 0D nanomaterials (nanoparticles);
- 1D nanomaterials (nanotube, nanofibers, nanowires);
- 2D nanomaterials (graphene, other 2D layered nanomaterials);
- Design and integration of multifunctional sensors;
- Sensor multi-scene applications: food safety, environmental pollution and health management;
- Construction and application of flexible wearable sensors.

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. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. 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.
