The global hazardous waste management market is expected to reach USD 987.51 million by 2027 at a CAGR of 14.48%. The early detection of corrosive, flammable, and infectious toxicants from natural sources or manmade contaminants from different environments is crucial to ensure the safety and security of the global living system. Even though the emergence of advanced science and technology continuously offers a more comfortable lifestyle, there are two sides of the coin in terms of opportunities and challenges, demanding solutions for greener applications and waste-to-wealth strategies. A modern analytical technique based on an electrochemical approach and microfluidics is one such emerging advanced solution for the early and effective detection of toxicants. This review attempts to highlight the different studies performed in the field of toxicant analysis, especially the fusion of electrochemistry and lab-chip model systems, promising for point-of-need analysis. The contents of this report are organised by classifying the types of toxicants and trends in electrochemical-integrated lab-chip assays that test for heavy-metal ions, food-borne pathogens, pesticides, physiological reactive oxygen/nitrogen species, and microbial metabolites. Future demands in toxicant analysis and possible suggestions in the field of microanalysis-mediated electrochemical (bio)sensing are summarised.
