Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue focuses on the development and application of advanced technology for point-of-care testing (POCT) bacteria, genes, microRNA, protein, metal ions, etc., in analytical chemistry. With the increasing demand for rapid, accurate, and portable diagnostic tools, biosensors have emerged as a key technology for real-time health monitoring and disease diagnosis. This Issue highlights cutting-edge research in biosensor design, including innovative nanomaterials, CRISPR technology, portable devices, lateral flow assays, microfluidics, and the use of nanotechnology to enhance sensitivity and specificity. The goal is to explore how these advancements can be applied to food safety and clinical and environmental settings, enabling efficient and cost-effective diagnostic solutions.
The Special Issue will provide a forum for the latest research activities in the field of POCT-based biosensors. Both review articles and original research papers are solicited in, though not limited to, the following areas:
Nanomaterials-based biosensors;
POCT biosensors;
Portable devices for detection;
Microfluidic chip-based biosensors;
Lateral flow immunoassays-based biosensors
