Biosensors can be made to detect almost anything.
You could design a biosensor to detect a non-pathogenic bacteria but there would be few people who would want to buy it.

What are the types of biosensors?
There are different types of biosensors based on different principles. However, generally they are categorized as: Optical biosensors Potentiometric biosensors Resonant Biosensors Thermal-detection Biosensors Ion-Sensitive Biosensors Electrochemical Biosensors Conductimetric Amperometric Potentiometric Calorimetric biosensors
When is it appropriate to use biosensors?
It is appropriate to use biosensors for pollution control or when one moves their eye. The biosensors control the movement in which the eye makes from one's nerves.

What are nonharmful and are not disease-producing microorganisms?
Nonpathogens are nonharmful and are not disease-producing microorganisms.
What if your urine culture result is Mixed Flora Consisting Predominantly of Nonpathogens?
A urine culture with mixed flora consisting predominately of nonpathogens is usually an incomplete test. This generally means that urine was not obtained by a clean catch method.

Is a bio probe the same as a bio sensor?
While a bioprobe has some things in common with a biosensor, most biosensors are not bioprobes, and most bioprobes are not biosensors. A biosensor is a kind of sensor -- i.e., it is used to detect something -- that uses at least some biological tissue in its construction. Perhaps the most well-known biosensor is the miner's canary, a small bird in a cage used to detect carbon monoxide and other deadly gases. The thing sensed by a biosensor is not necessarily biological -- as in this case, carbon monoxide. A bioprobe is a kind of sensor used to detect some kind of biological thing. Perhaps the most well-known bioprobe is the blood pressure meter, used to measure blood pressure. The bioprobe itself -- in this case, the pressure cuff -- is not necessarily biological. A hybridization probe is used to detect a particular DNA sequence. Because the thing it is designed to detect (a particular DNA sequence) is biological, and the hybridization probe itself is made of something biological (the complementary DNA sequence), a hybridization probe is simultaneously a bioprobe and a biosensor.

Different types of sensors?
Sensors provide information to other parts of the machine. There are temperature, pressure, level, flow, biosensors, gas, and proximity sensors.
