2022年8月1日 · The molecular technique of detecting microbial pathogens in food, water and environment is relatively more sensitive and specific compared to other culture-based techniques such as immunological and biochemical tests because these methods involve the detection and quantification of pathogens by targeting and amplifying specific portions of the ...

2023年11月1日 · Among many sensors known, optical biosensors promote the recognition of pathogens befouling the environment through a comparatively intuitive, brisk, portable, multitudinous, and thrifty approach. This article reviews the recent progresses in optical biosensor-based systems for effective environmental monitoring.

2024年11月15日 · Microbial biosensors hold great promise for engineering high-performance, field-deployable and affordable detection devices for medical and environmental applications. This review explores recent advances in the field, highlighting new sensing strategies and modalities for whole-cell biosensors as well as the remarkable expansion of microbial ...

2023年10月23日 · Pathogenic microorganisms in the environment pose a serious threat to global human health. This study developed a reduced graphene oxide (rGO)-field effect transistor (FET) biosensor to realize the rapid and sensitive detection of pathogenic microorganisms.

2024年9月5日 · In this Review, we discuss the design of field-deployable microbial bioelectronic sensors, including chassis selection, approaches for rewiring electron transfer, strategies to establish the...

2018年6月9日 · Biologists, chemists, and physicists are collaborating to develop highly sensitive and specific biosensors for pathogen detection in the food, healthcare, and environmental sectors. Those novel biosensors allow quick detection and are thus expected to solve the issues of the emergence of highly virulent or antibiotic-resistant pathogens.

2022年10月30日 · The uses of microbial biosensors entail their application from energy generation to the monitoring of the environment. The application of innovative techniques will generate a more robust biosensor with more selectivity and sensitivity, especially from eukaryotes to engineered prokaryotes.

Pathogens have been the focus of more than 11,000 total maximum daily load (TMDL) determinations since 1995, by far the leading water quality impairment addressed by the TMDL process across the U.S. Microbial pathogens can cause serious illness in people and violations of water quality standards for bacteria can impact drinking water supplies, s...

2009年10月28日 · The development of sensors for detecting foodborne pathogens has been motivated by the need to produce safe foods and to provide better healthcare. However, in the more recent times, these needs have been expanded to encompass issues relating to biosecurity, detection of plant and soil pathogens, microbial communities, and the environment.

2023年2月14日 · In this Review, we discuss paper-based platforms for bacteria detection, excluding other microbial pathogens such as viruses, parasites and fungi.
