Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Nanopores have been widely applied in the detection of biomaterials from single DNA molecules to virus. Materials to compose nanopores for sensing are roughly categorized into biological and sold state. As a commercialized sequencing system made of bio nanopores came out, biological nanopore technology reached a milestone in DNA sequencing. In contrast, sold state nanopores have been applied to detect various single molecules with their structures, discriminating virus types and so on. This Special Issue will focus on such varieties of solid state nanopore application and technologies, including the choice of materials and surface functionalization, as well as detection methods. Numerical simulations for the detection of biomolecules and virus will also be welcome.
Prof. Dr. Toshiyuki Mitsui

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. Nanomaterials 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 2900 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.
