Biosensors have been widely used as cost-effective, rapid, in situ, and real-time analytical
tools for monitoring environments. The development of synthetic biology has enabled …

Mercury (Hg) pollution is a global issue due to the high toxicity and wide dispersion of Hg
around the world. Whether due to anthropogenic activities or natural processes, Hg …

Engineered microorganisms have proven to be a highly effective and robust tool to
specifically detect heavy metals in the environment. In this study, a highly specific pigment …

Mercury pollutants such as mercuric chloride (HgCl 2), mercurous chloride (Hg 2 Cl 2) and
mercuric ammonium chloride (Hg (NH 2) Cl) are often found in cosmetics. Previous attempts …

Wetlands are considered the hotspots for mercury (Hg) biogeochemistry, garnering global
attention. Therefore, it is important to review the research progress in this field and predict …

Mercury (Hg) and its inorganic and organic compounds significantly threaten the ecosystem
and human health. However, the natural and anthropogenic Hg environmental inputs …

The toxicity of mercury (Hg) mainly depends on its form. Whole-cell biosensors respond
selectively to toxic Hg (II), efficiently transformed by environmental microbes into …

In recent years, small-molecule biosensors have become increasingly important in synthetic
biology and biochemistry, with numerous new applications continuing to be developed …

A Green fluorescent protein (GFP) based whole cell bacterial biosensor was prepared using
a bacterial strain sensitive to several heavy metals in order to detect bioavailable heavy …

Despite the mercury (Hg) control measures adopted by the international community, Hg still
poses a significant risk to ecosystem and human health. This is primarily due to the ability of …
