Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Building on the foundational work of the first edition, this second edition delves deeper into the innovative advancements and broader applications of nano-based chemosensors and biosensors for detective applications. The demand for precise and versatile detection of various analytes continues to grow, driving the development of more sophisticated sensing techniques.
In this edition, we explore a diverse range of transducing methods, including optical, electrochemical, and newly emerging technologies. The integration of nanomaterials remains a central theme, with an expanded focus on advanced materials such as novel metallic and metal oxides, carbon-based materials, metal–organic frameworks, carbon dots, nanocrystals, and photon up-converting particles.
Contributions to this Special Issue are expected to highlight significant advancements in the field of nano-based chemosensors and biosensors, particularly those leveraging cutting-edge nanomaterials and innovative detection principles. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, electrochemistry, fluorescence, colorimetry, surface plasmon resonance, and other novel sensing modalities. The aim is to showcase pioneering research that pushes the boundaries of current detection capabilities, offering new insights and practical solutions for a range of applications.
This edition aims to serve as a comprehensive resource for researchers and practitioners, providing an updated overview of the latest technological advancements and their practical applications in the field of chemosensing and biosensing.

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. Molecules is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly 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.
