Abstract
In order to achieve a sustainable growth and development of the society, it is imperative to safeguard both human and ecosystem health. The timely detection of potentially toxic environmental pollutants in air, soil, and water could help implement appropriate mitigating measures for the improvement of health. The biosensors used to detect pollutants invariably require the selection, synthesis, and production of well-characterized biomolecules for an efficient recognition. In this chapter, we discuss different biorecognition molecules, methods of their isolation and production, and the drawbacks associated with the procedures used. We also highlight the utility of biorecognition molecules in monitoring environmental health.
