Engineers have developed graphene sensors that can detect heavy metals and bacteria in flowing tap water.
The advance could bring down the cost of such sensors to just US $ 1 each.
Sensors have to be extraordinarily sensitive to catch the minute concentrations of toxins that can cause harm.
The researchers attach chemical and biological molecules to the graphene surface that will bind with the desired targets.
