Abstract

The term “biosensor” refers to a device used in this paper that couples a biological sensing element with a transducer-based detecting system. When it comes to both sensitivity and selectivity, biosensors perform far better than any other diagnostic tool on the market today. Biosensors have shown promise for use in environmental pollution management, industrial processing and monitoring, as well as the food and agricultural sectors. The biosensors’ cheap cost, selectivity, sensitivity, stability, and repeatability are crucial for their commercialization. This article examines the underlying principles, available biosensor types, and their brief history.

Keywords:  Biological sensing element, transducer, diagnostic device, industrial, environment pollution control, agriculture, food industries
