Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Biosensors have attracted significant interest in recent years. A biosensor includes two main components: a biological component, such as a cell or enzyme, and a physical component, such as an amplifier or transducer. Biosensors based on various sensing platforms, such as electrochemical, optical, piezoelectric, thermometric, and lab-on-a-chip platforms, have been studied. The main features of biosensors are stability, sensitivity, cost, and reproducibility. Based on the type of biorecognition unit, biosensors are classified as enzymatic, nucleic acid-based, aptamer-based, antibody-based, and whole-cell-based biosensors.
The aim of this Special Issue is to highlight the diagnostic and detection applications of biosensors in healthcare, biotechnology, biomedicine, chemistry, environmental monitoring, and food safety. We invite the submission of full research papers, review articles, and communications covering related topics. This Special Issue is devoted to the research, design, and development of biosensors and will therefore include research and comprehensive reviews from researchers, pioneers, and experts in the biopolymer, nanotechnology, biotechnology, biomedicine, and chemistry fields in order to develop the diagnostic and detection applications of biosensors.

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. Micromachines 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 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.
