Graphical Abstract

With the start of 2011, Sensors is instituting an annual award to recognize outstanding papers related to sensing technologies and applications that meet the aims, scope and high standards of this journal. We are pleased to announce the first “Sensors Best Paper Award” for 2011. Nominations were solicited from the Section Editor-in-Chiefs of Sensors, with all papers published in 2005 eligible for consideration. The following three papers were awarded:

  • Vojtech Adam Adam, Josef Zehnalek, Jitka Petrlova, David Potesil, Bernd Sures, Libuse Trnkova, Frantisek Jelen, Jan Vitecek and Rene Kizek *

    Phytochelatin Modified Electrode Surface as a Sensitive Heavy-Metal Ion Biosensor.

The prize awarding committee merits the article “Direct Electrochemistry of Redox Proteins and Enzymes Promoted by Carbon Nanotubes” for reporting “…excellent science on a timely topic…” and acknowledges the article “Phytochelatin Modified Electrode Surface as a Sensitive Heavy-Metal Ion Biosensor” as a “…nicely done paper with a new approach…”.

These three exceptional papers are valuable contributions to Sensors and the sensing field. On behalf of the Prize Awarding Committee and the Editorial Board of Sensors, we would like to congratulate these three teams for their excellent work. In recognition for their accomplishment, Drs. Chenxin Cai, Rene Kizek and Kevin A. Delin will receive a prize of 1000 CHF, 500 CHF, and 300 CHF, respectively, and the privilege to publish an additional paper free of charge in open access format in Sensors, after the usual peer-review procedure.
