“…), immobilizedm biological recognition element (enzymes, antibodies, or microbes), and optical detection system (Chen and Wang, 2020). An optical sensor converts light rays into electronic signals via measuring the physical quantity of light and translating it into a readable signal (Deshmukh et al, 2020). Optical sensing technologies are also divided into label-based techniques such as fluorescent labeling and label-free methods (Tang et al, 2010;Bermejo et al, 2011).…”

Drought and limited sufficient water resources will be the main challenges for humankind during the coming years. The lack of water resources for washing, bathing, and drinking increases the use of contaminated water and the risk of waterborne diseases. A considerable number of waterborne outbreaks are due to protozoan parasites that may remain active/alive in harsh environmental conditions. Therefore, a regular monitoring program of water resources using sensitive techniques is needed to decrease the risk of waterborne outbreaks. Wellorganized point-of-care (POC) systems with enough sensitivity and specificity is the holy grail of research for monitoring platforms. In this review, we comprehensively gathered and discussed rapid, selective, and easy-to-use biosensor and nanobiosensor technologies, developed for the early detection of common waterborne protozoa.
