Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Graphene, the “wonder” material, the thinnest, strongest, and most conductive bidimensional material has attracted the interest of researchers and businessmen for its potentially ground-breaking application in energy storage, electronics, coatings, sensors, and more. Among the different application fields in which graphene can be, and in some cases already is, profitably applied, sensing is one of the most promising. In recent years, scientific literature has been pervaded by graphene-based sensors for different application scenarios, including air pollutants and toxic gases monitoring, biosensors, and water contamination.
This Special Issue is intended to present the most recent developments of graphene and graphene-related materials into new chemosensing and biosensing tools.
Particular focus will be placed on new strategies aimed to overcome the few drawbacks that graphene still takes along with it. New and sustainable processes for graphene preparation and introductions into sensing devices without losing the goal to improve the analytical performances are welcome. Reports on calibration procedures and approaches for real-life environment employment of the graphene-based sensing devices are also strongly encouraged.

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.

Benefits of Publishing in a Special Issue
- Ease of navigation: Grouping papers by topic helps scholars navigate broad scope journals more efficiently.
- Greater discoverability: Special Issues support the reach and impact of scientific research. Articles in Special Issues are more discoverable and cited more frequently.
- Expansion of research network: Special Issues facilitate connections among authors, fostering scientific collaborations.
- External promotion: Articles in Special Issues are often promoted through the journal's social media, increasing their visibility.
- e-Book format: Special Issues with more than 10 articles can be published as dedicated e-books, ensuring wide and rapid dissemination.
