Abstract
Biomonitoring of environmental exposures is a critical area of public health that involves tracking the presence and impact of toxic substances in human populations. As industrial and agricultural activities increase, so does the risk of exposure to harmful pollutants, including smoke from cigarettes and wildfires, as well as pesticide residues. Traditional monitoring methods often require bulky equipment and complex procedures. In this talk, we will discuss innovative strategies for using functional nanoparticles and single-atom catalysis to enhance signal detection in biosensing. We will also explore the application of 3D printing technologies for the fabrication of compact sensor arrays. These advancements have led to the development of miniature biosensors that can be integrated with smartphone technology, enabling real-time, point-of-care biomonitoring. This approach not only increases the accessibility of environmental health diagnostics but also enhances the ability to respond rapidly to public health threats. The applications of these nanosensors in detecting exposures to cigarette smoke, wildfire smoke, and pesticides will be highlighted, demonstrating their potential to revolutionize the field of environmental health monitoring.
