Abstract

This review explores the development, technological foundations, and applications of biosensor technologies across various fields, such as medicine for disease diagnosis and monitoring, and the food industry. However, the primary focus is on their use in detecting contaminants and pathogens, as well as in environmental monitoring for water quality assessment. The review classifies different types of biosensors based on their bioreceptor and transducer, highlighting how they are specifically designed for the detection of emerging contaminants (ECs) and pathogens in water. Key innovations in this technology are critically examined, including advanced techniques such as systematic evolution of ligands by…
