“…The speed at which additive manufacturing produces goods, especially in large quantities, prevents it from being used profitably. As a result, hybrid procedures are concluded by contemporary research, which include the integration of additive processes into the regular industrial production process [ 93 , 94 , 95 ]. Additive manufacturing requires a repeatable process due to its sequential nature.…”

Embedded sensors (ESs) are used in smart materials to enable continuous and permanent measurements of their structural integrity, while sensing technology involves developing sensors, sensory systems, or smart materials that monitor a wide range of properties of materials. Incorporating 3D-printed sensors into hosting structures has grown in popularity because of improved assembly processes, reduced system complexity, and lower fabrication costs. 3D-printed sensors can be embedded into structures and attached to surfaces through two methods: attaching to surfaces or embedding in 3D-printed sensors. We discussed various additive manufacturing techniques for fabricating sensors in this review. We also discussed the many strategies for manufacturing sensors using additive manufacturing, as well as how sensors are integrated into the manufacturing process. The review also explained the fundamental mechanisms used in sensors and their applications. The study demonstrated that embedded 3D printing sensors facilitate the development of additive sensor materials for smart goods and the Internet of Things.

“…Sensors are also used in the design of intelligent packaging, some of which can be obtained by 3D printing [164,216]. To this end, nanomaterial-based functional ink formulations with innovative electronic designs and architectures printed on packaging materials are used to achieve various functionalities, such as radio frequency communication, timetemperature indicators, gas sensors, and freshness indicators, among others.…”

Food loss and waste occur for many reasons, from crop processing to household leftovers. Even though some waste generation is unavoidable, a considerable amount is due to supply chain inefficiencies and damage during transport and handling. Packaging design and materials innovations represent real opportunities to reduce food waste within the supply chain. Besides, changes in people’s lifestyles have increased the demand for high-quality, fresh, minimally processed, and ready-to-eat food products with extended shelf-life, that need to meet strict and constantly renewed food safety regulations. In this regard, accurate monitoring of food quality and spoilage is necessary to diminish both health hazards and food waste. Thus, this work provides an overview of the most recent advances in the investigation and development of food packaging materials and design with the aim to improve food chain sustainability. Enhanced barrier and surface properties as well as active materials for food conservation are reviewed. Likewise, the function, importance, current availability, and future trends of intelligent and smart packaging systems are presented, especially considering biobased sensor development by 3D printing technology. In addition, driving factors affecting fully biobased packaging design and materials development and production are discussed, considering byproducts and waste minimization and revalorization, recyclability, biodegradability, and other possible ends-of-life and their impact on product/package system sustainability.

“…28 3D printing combined with screen-printing was demonstrated by Materon et al to help increase the sensor surface area and improve the sensitivity towards specific analytes. 29 Additionally, Kerr et al also investigated numerous SPEs from Zensor, DropSens, and Kanichi, where they noticed platinum and gold SPEs produced low electrogenerated chemiluminescence, while carbon SPEs produced better signals. 30 In this study, they concluded that nanomaterial modification did not enhance the electrogenerated chemiluminescence, although previously mentioned modifications demonstrated that surface area seemed to be the critical z E-mail: zhe.she@queensu.ca component to improve the overall sensor performance for sensing applications.…”

Effectively detecting bacteria in the environment is crucial for researchers to make informed decisions about the safety of public areas such as lakes. This led to an increased need in the development of portable handheld devices capable of on-the-spot chemical and biological sensing applications. Specific interests lie in electrochemical biosensors and screen-printed electrodes (SPEs) due to the decreased costs, an ability to integrate with handheld devices, and their user-friendly nature. Together, these qualities make the devices more accessible in resource-poor settings. Two of the most common substrates used to fabricate SPEs are carbon and gold. Carbon SPEs are effective in sensing applications yet challenged when attempting to covalently attach biomolecules to the surface. Gold SPEs have higher affinity towards biomolecules and improve the sensitivity, selectivity, and stability of a device, yet they can be costly. A carbon SPE modified with gold may be an ideal candidate to create an efficient low-cost device, using electrochemical gold deposition. In this study, electrochemical gold deposition on SPEs is explored to enhance the surface area and conductivity towards sensing applications. These SPEs were then modified with a thiol-based self-assembled monolayer which demonstrates this technique could be used for further modification towards biosensing.
