Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Biological membranes have been included in the research scopes of many scientific fields for over 50 years. Structural biology, physiology, pharmacology and sensing have expanded the current knowledge and potential applications of cell membranes, artificial bilayers or membrane mimics. The biosensing era was founded on the prospect of reproducing the capabilities of natural chemoreception on a handheld device.
We are pleased to invite you to contribute to this Special Issue on Biomembranes in Bioelectronic Sensing, which places emphasis on sensor construction, membrane modelling, signal processing, coupling to bioelectronics, interrogation protocols, characterization, validation and applicability (clinical diagnostics, environmental metrology, industrial control, forensics).
This Special Issue plans not only to provide an overview of emerging technologies but also to present old platforms that have been upgraded and optimized using the currently available nanotools. Both original papers and reviews are welcome.
Research areas may include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Sensor architecture;
- Membrane platforms;
- Sensor validation protocols (analytical and field trials);
- Stability (theoretical, operational and shelf-life);
- Bioelement immobilization techniques and tools;
- Signal processing;
- Biointerfaces;
- Membrane modelling;
- Surface interrogation techniques;
- Manufacturability and chip integration.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.
Dr. Christina Siontorou
Guest Editor
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. Biosensors 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.
