Biosensors

Scope

The journal covers all aspects of biosensing. The scope includes but is not limited to the following: Sensors incorporating: enzymes, antibodies, nucleic acids, whole cells, tissues and organelles, other biological or biologically inspired components. These biological recognition elements should be retained in close spatial contact with transducers including those based on the following principles: electrochemical, optical, piezoelectric, thermal, magnetic, micromechanical. The journal will include a variety of subjects, including: DNA chips, lab-on-a-chip technology, microfluidic devices, nanobiosensors and nanotechnology used in biosensors, biosensor fabrication, biomaterials, biosensor interfaces and membrane technology, in vitro and in vivo applications, instrumentation, signal treatment and uncertainty estimation in biosensors. The scope will encompass biosensors for applications in: medicine, biomedical research, environment, security and defence, food, process industries, drug discovery
