Abstract

Purpose: to consider the classification of biosensors (by transducer type), the principle of their operation, the scope of biosensors depending on the type of environmental pollutants and the main directions of further development of biosensor technologies.

Materials and Methods. Bibliosemantic and analytical methods were used in the study.

Results and Discussion. The biosensor is a portable analytical device that consists of a sensitive element of biological origin and a physico-chemical transducer. Its equipment has the following components: bioreceptor, transducer, signal processor at the output. Biosensors can be classified according to the bioreceptor (enzymes, immuno-affinity, DNA and whole microbial cells) or the transducer (electrochemical, optical, piezoelectric, electrochemical and thermal biosensors). Both biosensors and biological devices can be used as tools to control environmental parameters – to assess the physical, chemical and biological monitoring of pollutants in the environment. Major biosensor programs are designed to identify and control various contaminants, including heavy metal salts, organic and inorganic contaminants, toxins, antibiotics, and microorganisms.

Conclusions. The use of modern nanotechnological biosensors has great potential for environmental monitoring and for the detection of pollutants, since these biological devices are portable and allow for real-time measurements. The principle of operation of the biosensor is based on the ability to capture biological material occurs through physical or membrane capture, non-covalent or covalent bonds.
