Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Biosensors are innovative analytical devices that integrate biological recognition elements with electrochemical transducers to rapidly and accurately detect significant analytes. They represent a substantial leap forward in rapid detection and point-of-care diagnostics, offering numerous advantages in terms of cost-effectiveness, user-friendliness, portability, and accuracy. Moreover, their continued development, alongside advances in photonic and optoelectronic systems, promises to revolutionize healthcare and environmental monitoring by enabling more timely and precise detection of target analytes. The integration of photonic and optoelectronic technologies enhances the sensitivity, speed, and versatility of biosensors, further expanding their applications in real-time analysis. Therefore, this Special Issue highlights recent advances in the design and development of various electrochemical biosensors, as well as photonic and optoelectronic systems, and their applications in the rapid detection of significant analytes for point-of-care diagnostics. These include fundamental research, technique development, and device fabrication in the following areas.

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. Biosensors 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.
