Abstract
Biosensors are of paramount importance in the field of environmental monitoring owing to their capacity to identify and measure distinct biological or chemical entities. Environmental monitoring instruments are crucial tools utilized for the evaluation and control of air, water, and soil conditions. These instruments find wide-ranging applications in the assessment of water quality, air quality, and soil quality in the smart agriculture sector. The field of biosensor technology has witnessed significant progress in recent years, particularly in the areas of miniaturization, mobility, and integration with nanomaterials. The chapter additionally emphasizes the significance of biosensors in influencing environmental laws and regulations, as evidenced by case studies that underscore the necessity of collaborative efforts among governmental bodies, industry, and academic institutions. In general, biosensors exhibit considerable promise in contributing to the advancement of a sustainable and improved environment, owing to their capacity for enhanced integration with state-of-the-art technology.
