Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue collates research on the synthesis of different nanomaterials, and their applications in constructing various sensors for detecting components such as mycotoxins, pesticides, and heavy metals in food, traditional Chinese medicines, and other biological samples. We invite papers on the novel application of nanomaterial-based sensors, as well as their construction processes and detection mechanisms. The development of new nanomaterials and their synthetic methods, discussion on their structural properties, and other outstanding studies on the establishment of sensors and mechanisms are also considered.
Research articles, reviews and comments are all welcome.
Dr. Weijun Kong
Guest Editor
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.
