Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The integration between sensors and microfluidics is a rapidly developing research area with application implications in health, environmental monitoring, food, and chemical and biological analysis.
This Special Issue aims to cover advancements, developments and applications over a wide range of topics in this area. We solicit research papers as well as state-of-the-art contributions and critical reviews.
This Special Issue aims at providing an overview of a wide class of sensors integrated with microfluidics (optical, acoustic, electrical, electrochemical, mechanical, etc.) and their use to generate complex and operative microsystems for several applications (biomedical, chemistry, environmental, etc.)

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. Sensors is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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 2600 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.
