AB  - In vivo tracking of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) is of great significance 
      for assessing their risks to the ecological environment and human health. 
      However, existing in vivo POPs detection methods are limited by the lethal 
      sampling of living organisms, complex sample preparation processes, or bulky 
      testing equipment. Photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensing with the merits of high 
      sensitivity and simple equipment is a fast-developed method for in vivo analysis. 
      A major obstacle for in vivo PEC sensors is the separated implantation of 
      multiple electrodes and a light source, which raises concerns like multielectrode 
      biofouling and electroactive molecules interference in the complex environment, 
      uncertain electrode implant distance, and multiple insertion operations. Here, a 
      coaxially implanted photofuel microsensor was developed by hiding the optical 
      fiber-based photoanode inside the glass capillary-based biocathode, and the model 
      target PCB77 can be detected with an ultralow detection limit (2.8 fg/mL). This 
      unique photoanode-biocathode-light source integrated structure ensures excellent 
      selectivity, good antifouling ability and biocompatibility, high accuracy, and 
      less implant mechanical damage. Combined with a handheld pH meter, our sensor 
      achieved convenient and direct tracking of the bioaccumulation levels of PCB77 in 
      freely swimming fish.
