Micro-microbial electrochemical sensor equipped with combined bioanode and biocathode for water biotoxicity monitoring

Na Chu et al.

Summary: The development of low-cost biosensors for water monitoring is expected to reduce potential risks from contamination accidents. This study reported a novel micro-microbial electrochemical sensor using combined bioanode and biocathode as the sensing element. By adjusting the ratio of bioanode to biocathode, a lower power generation can be achieved with a similar or even higher toxic response. Additionally, the voltage output is affected by both flow rate and acetate concentration.
