Scope

• The journal describes itself as a peer-reviewed research journal devoted to the dissemination of new and original knowledge on all aspects of sensor science that selectively sense chemical or biological species or processes该刊自我定位为同行评审研究期刊，致力于传播传感器科学中所有关于选择性检测化学或生物物种与过程的新知识。
• Published articles should address conceptual advances in sensing, and a paper may be entirely theoretical with regard to sensing or may report experimental results刊出论文应体现传感概念的推进，文章可以是纯传感理论，也可以报告实验结果。
• A paper that reports an existing sensing concept used in a new way or for a new analyte must demonstrate the sensor in complex samples appropriate to the application, show it is fit for purpose, and correlate its performance with an existing analytical method以新方式或针对新分析物使用既有传感概念的论文，须在契合应用场景的复杂样品中演示该传感器、证明其适用性，并与既有分析方法作性能比对。
• Work may also be aimed at sensor development for commercialization, or at sensors that are used to generate new scientific knowledge论文也可面向商业化的传感器开发，或面向用以产生新科学知识的传感器。
• The official topic list names biosensors, chemical sensors, gas sensors, intracellular sensors, single molecule sensors and protein engineering for sensing官方主题清单点名生物传感器、化学传感器、气体传感器、细胞内传感器、单分子传感器与面向传感的蛋白质工程。
• It also covers cell chips, arrays, microfluidic devices, clinical applications, environmental sensing and instrumental in vivo imaging并覆盖细胞芯片、阵列、微流控器件、临床应用、环境传感与在体仪器成像。
• Further listed areas are novel transduction methods, machine learning in sensing, surface chemistry and materials chemistry for sensing另有新型换能方法、传感中的机器学习、表面化学与面向传感的材料化学。
• Its manuscript types are Articles of about eight journal pages, Letters of about four pages handled on an accelerated schedule, Comments of about three pages, Perspectives of six to ten pages and Reviews of six to twenty pages稿件类型含约 8 页的（Article）、约 4 页并加速处理的（Letter）、约 3 页的（Comment）、6 至 10 页的（Perspective）与 6 至 20 页的（Review）。
