This review explores the development, technological foundations, and applications of biosensor technologies across various fields, such as medicine for disease diagnosis and monitoring, and the food industry. However, the primary focus is on their use in detecting contaminants and pathogens, as well as in environmental monitoring for water quality assessment. The review classifies different types of biosensors based on their bioreceptor and transducer, highlighting how they are specifically designed for the detection of emerging contaminants (ECs) and pathogens in water. Key innovations in this technology are critically examined, including advanced techniques such as systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment (SELEX), molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs), and self-assembled monolayers (SAMs), which enable the fabrication of sensors with improved sensitivity and selectivity. Additionally, the integration of microfluidic systems into biosensors is analyzed, demonstrating significant enhancements in performance and detection speed. Through these advancements, this work emphasizes the fundamental role of biosensors as key tools for safeguarding public health and preserving environmental integrity.

The degradation of m-cresol (MC) has been investigated by a heterogeneous electro-Fenton process using iron loaded activated carbon (Fe-AC) as the heterogeneous electro-Fenton catalyst. Experimental results demonstrated that MC was effectively removed through an electro-Fenton process. Calculated TOC removal and overall energy consumption showed that the use of a low iron concentration (28 mg L−1) increases the efficiency of the process. The reactions followed a pseudo-first order kinetic equation and kinetic coefficients confirm that the MC reduction, when it is alone, is faster than in the presence of a similar compound, tert-butylhydroquinone (TBHQ) (from 0.0935 to 0.0692 min−1); therefore TBHQ exerts an antioxidative protection effect. In all cases, it is concluded that heterogeneous electro-Fenton treatment with Fe-AC follows a two-step process: adsorption and oxidation; allowing removal rates higher than in the literature. In addition, the reusability of this catalyst was demonstrated by operating it in continuous mode. Finally, LC-MS analysis allowed the development of a plausible degradation route.
