One of the major challenges for scientists and engineers today is to develop technologies for the improvement of human health in both developed and developing countries. However, the need for cost-effective, high-performance diagnostic techniques is very crucial for providing accessible, affordable, and high-quality healthcare devices. In this context, microfluidic-based devices (MFDs) offer powerful platforms for automation and integration of complex tasks onto a single chip. The distinct advantage of MFDs lies in precise control of the sample quantities and flow rate of samples and reagents that enable quantification and detection of analytes with high resolution and sensitivity. With these excellent properties, microfluidics (MFs) have been used for various applications in healthcare, along with other biological and medical areas. This review focuses on the emerging demands of MFs in different fields such as biomedical diagnostics, environmental analysis, food and agriculture research, etc., in the last three or so years. It also aims to reveal new opportunities in these areas and future prospects of commercial MFDs.

“…However, replacing batteries in remote areas is inconvenient and unsustainable, while using solar systems is inefficient, expensive and highly dependent on weather conditions [128]. BES technologies such as MSCs and EFCs have been extensively studied to provide sustainable power supply for WSN devices, with capacitors applied to accumulate excessive energy generated from these BESs [7,[128][129][130]. Similarly, a specific genre of MFC known as sediment microbial fuel cell (SMFC) is widely used for powering wireless sensors and small telemetry systems to transmit the acquired data to remote receivers [131].…”

Background: Bioelectrochemical systems (BESs) are emerging energy-effective and environment-friendly technologies. Different applications of BESs are able to effectively minimize wastes and treat wastewater while simultaneously recovering electricity, biohydrogen and other value-added chemicals via specific redox reactions. Although there are many studies that have greatly advanced the performance of BESs over the last decade, research and reviews on agriculture-relevant applications of BESs are very limited. Considering the increasing demand for food, energy and water due to human population expansion, novel technologies are urgently needed to promote productivity and sustainability in agriculture. Methodology: This review study is based on an extensive literature search regarding agriculture-related BES studies mainly in the last decades (i.e., 2009–2018). The databases used in this review study include Scopus, Google Scholar and Web of Science. The current and future applications of bioelectrochemical technologies in agriculture have been discussed. Findings/Conclusions: BESs have the potential to recover considerable amounts of electric power and energy chemicals from agricultural wastes and wastewater. The recovered energy can be used to reduce the energy input into agricultural systems. Other resources and value-added chemicals such as biofuels, plant nutrients and irrigation water can also be produced in BESs. In addition, BESs may replace unsustainable batteries to power remote sensors or be designed as biosensors for agricultural monitoring. The possible applications to produce food without sunlight and remediate contaminated soils using BESs have also been discussed. At the same time, agricultural wastes can also be processed into construction materials or biochar electrodes/electrocatalysts for reducing the high costs of current BESs. Future studies should evaluate the long-term performance and stability of on-farm BES applications.

Microbial bioelectrocatalysis, the process of utilizing an intact microorganism for catalyzing redox reactions, has been rapidly expanding over the last 15 years. Although microbial bioelectrocatalysis has been primarily studied for power generation and wastewater treatment, this Minireview will focus on the use of bioelectrochemical systems (BESs) for biosensing applications. This will include sensors for water quality, corrosion, and toxic shock. We will also discuss the transition of BESs to photo‐BESs and discuss their recent applications in sensing. Finally, we will discuss the future outlook for microbial bioelectrocatalysis for biosensing applications.
