Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
According to a holistic approach, our health is influenced by our food intake and the environment we live in; therefore, to have a healthy population, environmental and food safety and quality are key parameters. In this Special Issue, “Environment and food quality sensing systems”, we aim to highlight the advances in sensing technologies for monitoring our environment, i.e., air quality, both outdoors and indoors; water and soil contamination; and our food. With this perspective, the identification of emerging contaminants and novel detection strategies to monitor their presences will also be addressed. Both original research papers and review articles are welcome. The manuscripts can cover, but are not limited to, the following topics:
- Air quality monitoring;
- Air contamination detection;
- Water organic and inorganic contaminant detection;
- Soil contamination detection;
- Food analysis (safety and quality);
- Contaminants of emerging concern (CEC) identification;
- Novel detection technologies applied to food and/or environment monitoring.

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.
