Nanobiosensors’ Potentialities for Environmental Monitoring

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Nanobiosensors for Environmental Monitoring

Abstract

Pollutants have become the global concern for which there is an intense demand for a quick, reliable, and sustainable system for their determination in the environment and agricultural land. Quantitative analytical tools such as chromatography and spectroscopy, albeit precise and accurate, expensive, requires experienced technician, complicated sample preparation steps, and difficult to assess at high frequencies in real-time. To overcome the issues, nanoparticle-based biosensors are considered as a potential tool to detect both biotic and abiotic toxins. With headways in nanotechnology, numerous specialists have utilized the one-of-a-kind properties of nanomaterials (counting a high surface-area-to-volume proportion) to foster efficiency and sensitivity in detection techniques. Nanomaterials have enabled us to design devices at the microscale level, prompting fast, versatile, and sensitive microorganism symptomatic frameworks that can recognize airborne microbes in clinics, air vents, and planes and bioterrorism in open spaces. Hence, this chapter gives an overview of the usage of nanobiosensors in the detection of contaminants. Further, the present scenario and future scope are also discussed in the development of novel detection devices, and their advantages over other environmental monitoring methodologies.
