Article Synopsis
- The review discusses how bioelectrochemical sensors can be used to monitor soil fertility by tracking microbial activity, which is closely linked to soil nutrients and plant health.
- The design of these sensors is based on the similarities between soils and bioelectrochemical reactors, utilizing microorganisms that form electrochemically active biofilms on electrodes.
- By generating electrochemical signals through electron exchange and metabolite interactions, these sensors can provide real-time insights into soil fertility and nutrient availability.
