Sensors & Diagnostics is a gold open access journal for high-impact sensors research. We highlight emerging research on physical, chemical and bio sensors, as well as sensor devices and systems.

Read the first articles now

There are 4 fantastic free to read articles on topics ranging from in situ recalibration of electrodes to a colorimetric assay involving aggregation of gold nanocomposites for the detection of proteins.

Read on to see the 4 papers and to hear the thoughts of our authors.

 

Perspective

Electroanalytical overview: the electroanalytical sensing of hydrazine
Robert D. Crapnell and Craig E. Banks
Sens. Diagn., 2022, Advance Article
DOI: 10.1039/D1SD00006C

 

Professor Craig Banks on his work: Our paper, one in a series providing an electroanalytical overview of…hydrazine, provides an authoritative overview of the past sensing of hydrazine with a summary of the current approaches, in addition to providing researchers with targets/goals of what is needed to push this field further.”

 

 

Communication

In situ recalibration of ion selective electrodes
Neel Sisodia, Kay L. McGuinness, Jay D. Wadhawan and Nathan S. Lawrence
Sens. Diagn., 2022, Advance Article
DOI: 10.1039/D1SD00003A

 

Dr Nathan Lawrence comments that When we first read the scope of Sensors and Diagnostics we knew this work would be an ideal fit. Our inaugural article in Sensors & Diagnostics focuses on improving classical glass pH sensors by real time monitoring and compensation for reference electrode drift (one of the key causes of routine field calibration of pH sensors).”

 

  

 

 

Papers

Quad-band terahertz metamaterial absorber enabled by an asymmetric I-type resonator formed from three metallic strips for sensing application
Ben-Xin Wang, Yangkuan Wu, Wei Xu, Zhuchuang Yang, Liming Lu and Fuwei Pi
Sens. Diagn., 2022, Advance Article
DOI: 10.1039/D1SD00005E

 

Professor Ben-Xin Wang explains the key features of their work: “Dimension changes of the [I-type] resonator, especially the metallic strip in the vertical direction, have an important role in controlling quad-band absorption performance, these results should have potential applications in terms of detection, sample composition identification or sensing.”

 

 

Colorimetric assay based on iron(III) ions triggering the aggregation of a poly(tannic acid) coated Au nanocomposite for carbonic anhydrase II detection
Jiale Pan, Junjiao Yang, Shiman Yao and Jing Yang
Sens. Diagn., 2022, Advance Article
DOI: 10.1039/D1SD00015B

 

Dr Jing Yang comments that a domino-type protein sensor was explored, in which….released iron (III) ions from mesoporous silica nanoparticles coordinate with poly(tannic acid), leading to AuNP aggregation and the change of the visual colour.”

Professor Lisa Hall joins the Associate Editor team

Professor Lisa Hall joins the Associate Editor team

Welcome to Sensors & Diagnostics!

We are delighted to welcome Professor Lisa Hall, University of Cambridge, UK, as a new Associate Editor for Sensors & Diagnostics.

 

 

 

“[I’m looking forward to] encouraging publication of exciting new innovation in diagnostics. Seeing new elements coming together from novel materials, unexpected device designs and signal transduction sometimes taken to new levels with machine learning and solving real sensing challenges.”

 

 

 

Professor Hall is head of Cambridge Analytical Biotechnology. Her work is focused on understanding how biology and synthetic biology can interface with electronic, mechanical, and optical systems and new ways to answer fundamental and applied questions concerning new measurement regimes. Lisa’s PhD from the University of London was in electrochemistry but her research has recognised that the dynamics of the whole system, from molecular signalling to transduction and data manipulation technologies, are integral to sensing and diagnostics and require an interdisciplinary approach, adopting methods from biotechnology, engineering, chemistry physics and mathematics.

“I love the challenge of research and bringing different disciplines together to solve problems. Sensors & Diagnostics needs to consider the dynamics of the whole system, from molecular signalling to transduction technologies and data analysis. This requires an interdisciplinary approach.”

Prof. Hall has been a pioneer in education and a champion of young researchers in analytical biotechnology. Her textbook, Biosensors, was the first to target understanding of the underlying principles of Biosensors, she received the gold medal from the RSC Analytical Division in 2005 and she has been a role model for women in science: she was the first female professor and Vice President of Queens’ College Cambridge.  She has also served as Head of Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology, University of Cambridge. Her service on numerous committees has been directed towards equality of opportunity and adding value to education and to promoting sensors and diagnostics. This has included the National Institute for Health & Clinical Excellence (NICE) Diagnostics Advisory Committee; she was awarded a CBE in the Queen’s birthday honours list in 2015 for her services to Higher Education and to Sport for the Disabled, recognising her broader public service throughout her career.

“My focus has evolved over the past 25 years and I’m presently very interested in finding new solutions for sensors that can be manufactured in low income countries using locally resourced materials.”

Professor Wei Gao joins the Associate Editor team

Welcome to Sensors & Diagnostics!

We are delighted to welcome Professor Wei Gao, California Institute of Technology, USA, as a new Associate Editor for Sensors & Diagnostics.

 

 

“Sensing and diagnostics is an exciting topic that has close links to the health and the life of everyone. The development of this field could lead to a better future of human beings. I am excited that I could be a player and contributor to push this field forward.”

 

 

 

 

Wei Gao is an Assistant Professor of Medical Engineering in the Division of Engineering and Applied Science at the California Institute of Technology and a Heritage Medical Research Institute (HMRI) Investigator. He received his PhD in Chemical Engineering at the University of California, San Diego in 2014 as a Jacobs Fellow and an HHMI International Student Research Fellow. From 2014-2017, he was a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences at the University of California, Berkeley.

He is a recipient of a Pittsburgh Conference Achievement Award, an Office of Naval Research (ONR) Young Investigator Award, a Sloan Research Fellowship, a 3M Non-Tenured Faculty Award, an IEEE EMBS Early Career Achievement Award, an IEEE Sensor Council Technical Achievement Award, an MIT Technology Review 35 Innovators Under 35, and an ACS Young Investigator Award (Division of Inorganic Chemistry). He is a Highly Cited Researcher (Web of Science), a World Economic Forum Young Scientist, a member of Global Young Academy, and a National Academy of Engineering’s US Frontiers of Engineering Symposium alumnus. His research interests include wearable biosensors, digital medicine, micro/nanorobotics, bioelectronics, and nanomedicine.

“I choose to work on the development of wearable biosensors as I believe these devices could play a crucial role in future personalized healthcare by continuously collecting data from the human body and providing early warning of abnormal health conditions for timely intervention. As most commercially available health monitors only focus on tracking physical parameters such as heart rate, there is a clear gap for developing wearable biosensors that can collect chemical or molecular information about human health.”
