Scope
Aims, scope and focus
Electroanalysis is published by Wiley-VCH Verlag and is in Zone 4 of Chemistry in the CAS Journal Ranking (2025 upgraded edition). By OpenAlex counts of its recent articles, its largest topics are Electrochemical Analysis and Applications, Electrochemical sensors and biosensors and Analytical Chemistry and Sensors, together about 63.9% of its articles. (generated from OpenAlex topic counts and CAS ranking data)
Electroanalysis is a peer-reviewed journal that disseminates impactful and scientifically important research pertaining to the field of electroanalytical chemistry. Articles may address conceptual advances in sensing or detection that are applicable to many types of analytes or more applied papers that report on the use of existing concepts in a new way or for new types of analytes. Articles on advances in analytical voltammetry and potentiometry, novel electrochemical sensors and detection schemes coupled with separation science, the preparation of metal and carbon electrode materials and their characterization, chemically-modified electrodes for molecular recognition and electrocatalysis, electrochemical sensors and biosensors, nanoscale electrochemistry, nanobioelectronics, neuroelectrochemistry, point-of-care diagnostics and wearable sensors, hyphenated electrochemical techniques and advanced electrochemical instrumentation are sought. Basic science and application papers in the biomedical, environmental, industrial, pharmaceutical, and food fields are welcome.Emphasizing innovation and feasibility, Electroanalysis is a vital medium bridging research scientists in laboratories on basic (analytical) sciences with those on translational applications to make real societal impacts. A goal of the journal is to guide the electroanalytical chemistry community on the latest in measurement advances and on where measurement opportunities and challenges exist. See the Author Guidelines for more information on the journal, the manuscript types, and manuscript requirements. ISSN: 1521-4109 (online). CODEN: ELANEU. Volume 30. 12 Issues in 2020.

Fees & open access
APC and open-access policy
Hybrid open accessLetPub
A subscription journal in which authors can pay to publish their article open access.
| Source | APC | Fee waiver | License | Observed |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| OpenAlex | USD 3,800 / EUR 3,170 / GBP 2,550 | — | — |
A hybrid journal charges the APC only when the author chooses open access; publishing under the subscription model is usually free.
The journal's website is authoritative for fees; sources were observed at different times and each keeps its own value, without averaging.
