Biosensors and Bioelectronics
Biosensors & Bioelectronics has an open access companion journal Biosensors &Bioelectronics: X . To submit to Biosensors & Bioelectronics: X visit https://www.editoria... are defined as analytical devices incorporating a biological material, a biologically derived material or a biomimic intimately associated with or integrated within a physicochemical transducer or transducing microsystem, which may be optical, electrochemical, thermometric, piezoelectric, magnetic or micromechanical (Turner et al., 1987; Turner, 1989). Biosensors & Bioelectronics is the principal international journal devoted to research, design, development and application of biosensors and bioelectronics. It is an interdisciplinary journal serving professionals with an interest in the exploitation of biological materials and designs in novel diagnostic and electronic devices including sensors, DNA chips, electronic noses, lab-on-a-chip and μ-TAS. Biosensors usually yield a digital electronic signal which is proportional to the concentration of a specific analyte or group of analytes. While the signal may in principle be continuous, devices can be configured to yield single measurements to meet specific market requirements. Examples of Biosensors include immunosensors, enzyme-based biosensors, organism- and whole cell-based biosensors. They have been applied to a wide variety of analytical problems including uses in medicine, biomedical research, drug discovery, the environment, food, process industries, security and defence. The design and study of molecular and supramolecular structures with molecular biorecognition and biomimetic properties for use in analytical devices is also included within the scope of the journal. Here the focus is on the complementary intersection between molecular recognition, nanotechnology, molecular imprinting and supramolecular chemistry to improve the analytical performance and robustness of devices.The emerging field of Bioelectronics seeks to exploit biology in conjunction with electronics in a wider context encompassing, for example, biological fuel cells, bionics and biomaterials for information processing, information storage, electronic components and actuators. A key aspect is the interface between biological materials and micro- and nano-electronics.Whi... endeavouring to maintain coherence in the scope of the journal, the editors will accept reviews and papers of obvious relevance to the community, which describe important new concepts, underpin understanding of the field or provide important insights into the practical application, manufacture and commercialisation of biosensors and bioelectronics.

Talanta
Talanta provides a forum for the publication of original research papers, short communications, and critical reviews in all branches of pure and applied analytical chemistry. Papers are evaluated based on established guidelines, including the fundamental nature of the study, scientific novelty, substantial improvement or advantage over existing analytical techniques or methods, and demonstrated analytical applicability. Original research papers on fundamental analytical studies, and on novel sensor and instrumentation developments, are encouraged. Novel or significantly improved analytical chemistry applications in areas such as clinical and biological chemistry (including omics platforms), environmental and industrial monitoring and analysis, geochemistry, materials science, and engineering are welcome. For details on editorial criteria, please refer to the Guide for Authors CRITERIA section.Journal sectionsAtomic spectrometric methodsThis section includes articles reporting on novel analytical research employing atomic spectroscopy (e.g., AAS, ICP-OES, ICP-MS, XRF, LIBS), including but not limited to new techniques, instrumentation and applications.Molecul... spectrometric methods (bioanalytical applications), including optical sensors and new reagents/probesThis section welcomes studies employing molecular spectroscopy for the analysis of bioanalytes. It includes research on the design and application of optical sensors, molecular probes, and novel reagents for selective and sensitive detection in biological and biomedical contexts.Molecular spectrometric methods (non-bioanalytical applications), including optical sensors and new reagents/probesThis section includes articles describing applications of molecular spectroscopy for the analysis of analytes not classified as bioanalytes. It includes research on the design and application of optical sensors, molecular probes, and novel reagents for selective and sensitive detection in non-biological and non-biomedical contexts.Separation methods (bioanalytical applications)This section welcomes articles describing the determination of bioanalytes based on novel and high-performance methods for their separation and preconcentration involving among others the use of new sorbents or procedures design in solid phase extraction or chromatographic separation, new membranes and/or membrane-based procedures for membrane separation (and preconcentration), novel solvents for high performance extraction, and other novel sample pretreatment protocols involving separation processes.Separation methods (non-bioanalytical applications)This section includes articles describing the determination of analytes not classified as bioanalytes involving novel and high-performance methods for their separation and preconcentration based among others on the use of new sorbents or procedures design in solid phase extraction or chromatographic separation, new membranes and/or membrane-based procedures for membrane separation (and preconcentration), novel solvents for high performance extraction, and other novel sample pretreatment protocols involving separation processes.Electroche... methods, including electrochemical sensorsThis section focuses on the development of sensor for chemical and biochemical analysis and novel analysis methods based on electroanalytical techniques such as amperometry, voltammetry, potentiometry, conductometry, and coulometry among others. Methods based on impedance measurements and scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) for spatio-temporal monitoring of analytes are also welcome. The newly developed sensors should be amenable to miniaturization.Flow analysis and microfluidics methodsThis section welcomes articles describing novel flow analysis or microfluidics methods or/and instrumentation for the analysis of analytes of environmental, industrial or clinical interest.Methods not included in the above sectionsTalanta is the companion title to the open access journal Talanta Open.The name Talanta derives from the Greek word ταλαντα, used by Homer to mean a pair of scales. Such a balance was used for measuring talents or gold coins. See Talanta, 35(5)(1988) I-V for details. The symbol for the journal is a Greek balance taken from one of the Hope Vases.
