Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The aim of this Special Issue is to bring together researchers active in the development of biosensors based on label-free technologies, methods or protocols. Label-free biosensors have attracted intense research efforts due to their advantages and their promise to provide analytical information and, often, real-time kinetic analysis, in a faster and cheaper mode without interferences from labels.
Works on classical label-free technologies, such as surface plasmon resonance or QCM, are welcome as well as those based on innovative techniques such as fully electronic readouts or whispering gallery modes. Manuscripts on the overcoming of challenges, related, for example, to real-world applications of label-free biosensors will be also appreciated.
I cordially invite you to share your work, expertise and insights, with the sensor-research community in the form of research articles and reviews for this Special Issue.
This is the Volume II of the successful Special Issue "Label-Free Biosensors".

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. Sensors 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 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.
