Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Over the past few decades, electronic noses have played an increasingly important role in daily life as the olfaction economy has grown. There is an increasing need for rapid, highly sensitive, and selective analytical methods to address emerging challenges in environmental monitoring, food safety, and public health. To meet this need, gas-sensing systems based on a variety of sensors have become promising tools, which are more affordable and require less complex specialized operations compared with expensive and complex traditional analytical instruments. Electronic noses have been widely used in qualitative/quantitative analysis and sensory evaluation of food, biological, environmental, and medical samples. Accordingly, this Special Issue aims to provide a timely and comprehensive introduction to the latest and emerging concepts, principles, technologies and applications in the field of electronic noses, including, but not limited to, hardware system construction and software algorithm analysis of electronic noses, as well as novel applications. Research papers and review articles will be considered.

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.
