The biochemical network stress response of Escherichia coli reports the presence of heavy metal contaminants in water when integrated with optical sensors. Machine learning analysis of the vibrational spectra of metabolites released in response to chromium and arsenic exposure detects concentrations 108 times lower than those leading to cell death. Heavy metal type and concentration are determined with accuracy exceeding 92%, which is promising for longitudinally monitoring changes in water quality. Transfer learning of trained algorithms is further demonstrated to be generalizable to unseen tap water and wastewater samples where data acquisition requires less than 10 min for evaluation of water quality. Heavy metal contamination due to industrial and agricultural waste represents a growing threat to water supplies. Frequent and widespread monitoring for toxic metals in drinking and agricultural water sources is necessary to prevent their accumulation in humans, plants, and animals, which results in disease and environmental damage. Here, the metabolic stress response of bacteria is used to report the presence of heavy metal ions in water by transducing ions into chemical signals that can be fingerprinted using machine learning analysis of vibrational spectra. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering surfaces amplify chemical signals from bacterial lysate and rapidly generate large, reproducible datasets needed for machine learning algorithms to decode the complex spectral data. Classification and regression algorithms achieve limits of detection of 0.5 pM for As3+ and 6.8 pM for Cr6+, 100,000 times lower than the World Health Organization recommended limits, and accurately quantify concentrations of analytes across six orders of magnitude, enabling early warning of rising contaminant levels. Trained algorithms are generalizable across water samples with different impurities; water quality of tap water and wastewater was evaluated with 92% accuracy.
