Abstract

Key findings

  • The biosensor showed high sensitivity and specificity in detecting chromium toxicity, with a detection limit of 10 μM.
  • The use of bacteria as the substrate allowed for real-time monitoring of chromium toxicity, with a response time of less than 1 hour.
  • The biosensor was able to distinguish between different concentrations of chromium, with a correlation coefficient of 0.95.
