Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The research on microbial-based electrochemical technologies has allowed tremendous advancements in the field of microbial electrochemical technologies, spanning from electrode materials development to cell design, the engineering of the biotic–abiotic interface for enhancing electrochemical performance, power generation, organics removal, and the synthesis of value-added products. An emerging area in this field is the design of electrochemical biosensors, including flexible and wearable forms, for the detection of disease-related biomarkers, environmental hazards, and waterborne and foodborne pathogens. In view of this rapidly evolving field, this Special Issue will be focused on the most up-to-date studies on both the fundamental and applicative aspects of microbial electrochemical technologies. Research articles, short communications, perspectives, and review papers will be welcome.

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. Chemosensors 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.
