Abstract:

This review discussesd on the detection methods of heavy metal ions pollution, including enzymatic biosensors, cell biosensors, microbial biosensors. The flexibilities of different transducers for biological elements was analyzed, and finally, it point out that the automated and miniaturized biosensors based-on bio-technologies and the detailed relations between structure and function would be potential meet to the need for heavy metal ions monitoring.

Key words: Heavy metal ions, Biosensors, Environment, Detection
