Keywords:
Biosensors, healthcare, environmental monitoring, disease diagnosis, pollutants, real-time detection, sensing technologyAbstract
Biosensors have emerged as an essential tool in both healthcare and environmental monitoring due to their ability to provide real-time, sensitive, and accurate detection of various analytes. In healthcare, biosensors are utilized for disease diagnosis, monitoring, and personalized treatment, while in environmental monitoring, they offer early detection of pollutants and other hazardous substances. This paper discusses the latest developments in biosensor technology, their applications in healthcare and environmental monitoring, and the ongoing challenges in their integration into practical systems. It highlights the role of biosensors in the early detection of diseases, environmental pollutants, and their potential for improving public health and safety.
