Abstract

Key findings

  • The biosensor demonstrated high sensitivity and specificity in detecting organic pollutants, with a detection limit of 10 mg/L.
  • The device was able to track changes in organic pollution influx over time, with a response time of less than 1 hour.
  • The biosensor's performance was stable over a period of 30 days, with minimal degradation in sensitivity.
