Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to announce a Special Issue dedicated to the innovative development and application of sensors derived from biomaterials and polymeric materials, designed to degrade under diverse environmental conditions such as UV exposure, heat, and oxygen impact. This issue aims to showcase cutting-edge research on biodegradable sensors and their ability to measure a wide range of physical, chemical, and biochemical parameters, including—but not limited to—temperature, humidity, pressure, and the detection of various chemicals and biological substances.
We welcome contributions on the mechanisms underlying these sensors, highlighting how they convert physical, chemical, and biochemical phenomena into measurable signals. Additionally, this issue seeks to explore advancements in sensor signal acquisition and processing techniques, emphasizing the integration of emerging technologies for efficient data interpretation.
Through this Special Issue, we aim to underscore the transformative potential of biodegradable sensors in promoting sustainability while achieving good performance across diverse sensing applications. Authors are encouraged to submit original research articles, comprehensive reviews, and insightful perspectives to advance this rapidly evolving field.

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.
