Biological monitors represent an emerging technology for securing the safety of thenation's drinking water. Biological monitors utilize living organisms as sensors to detectthe presence of toxic materials. A few of these systems have emerged into the arena ofapplied science. In order for these technologies to reduce the risk of contamination of water supplies and/or distribution systems, they must posses a number of characteristicsthat reflect their reliability, while accommodating the end users. The characteristicsnecessary for this technology's extensive use as an automated and real time water qualitymonitoring system include reliability, sensitivity, cost, and ease of use. This paper provides a discussion ofsome of the emerging technologies. The primary focus is on the technology,development and applications of one specific fish monitoring system called BioSensor®. Includes 13 references, table, figures.
