Full text not available from this repository. (Request a copy)Abstract
Increased concentrations of toxic compounds such as metals and metalloids pollutants have created an alarming situation in the environment, especially in soil and water. As these toxic contaminants cannot be broken down into nontoxic forms, they have long-term consequences on the ecosystem. The discipline of biotechnology has designed and developed new techniques for biological remediation of toxic contaminants or, more accurately, bioremediation, which is the transformation or breakdown of pollutants by use of microorganisms. A simple, particular, sensitive, quick, and portable approach for analyzing and observing environmental security threats is need of the hour. Use of biosensors is one such utility. Biosensing is a flourishing analytical field for the detection of various pollutants. In this chapter, we discuss unique types of biosensors and their working to make readers understand the biochemical potential along with the application. © 2023 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
