Microalgae-based biosensing technologies for environmental monitoring and emerging food safety applications: Opportunities and challenges
Summary Microalgae have long been investigated as biological sensing elements, yet their translation into robust, deployable biosensors remains limited by challenges related to cell viability, analyte selectivity, and transducer integration. Their sensing function is based on pollutant-induced alterations in photosynth...
