Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D) printing technics have been properly utilized for fast and straightforward fabrication of novel designs of sensor systems, various electrochemical cells, and other apparatus. The 3D printing technologies are a charming for manufacturing electrochemical sensors because of their variation of design, simplicity of operation, quick prototyping, highly sensitivity and selectivity, feature of environmentally friendly, and low cost. Environmental contamination is an increasing global problem because of the influence contaminants can have on all kinds of life-forms. Contaminants, especially agricultural chemicals, are frequently transported in water, air, and soil. Unfortunately, these chemicals are essential in worldwide agricultural activities to control diseases, pests, and enhance productivity. Due to the extremely dangerous effects of these chemicals on the environment and health, it is crucial to have monitoring sensor systems for these chemicals that are reproducible and reliable. In this chapter, we reviewed the most generally utilized techniques to date for the design of 3D-printed electrochemical sensors and their recent implementations in determining of agricultural chemicals.
