Lateral flow (immuno) assays are currently used for qualitative, semiquantitative and to
some extent quantitative monitoring in resource-poor or non-laboratory environments …

The detection and identification of foodborne pathogens continue to rely on conventional
culturing techniques. These are very elaborate, time-consuming, and have to be completed …

Foodborne pathogens are a major public health threat and financial burden for the food
industry, individuals, and society, with an estimated 76 million cases of food-related illness …

We describe the first species-specific detection of bacterial pathogens in human clinical fluid
samples using a microfabricated electrochemical sensor array. Each of the 16 sensors in the …

Polymerase chain reaction is an approach to make numerous copies of specific DNA. PCR
has been applied for the investigation of infectious sicknesses caused by viral, protozoan …

Delayed use of appropriate antibiotics for superbugs, particularly for extended-spectrum β-
lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pn) …

Improved environmental monitoring of microorganisms is currently an important issue, since
traditional detection methods are costly and time consuming (often requiring 2–3 days). In …

The superparamagnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) with a series of sizes and magnetite contents
are designed and prepared as labels used in lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) to test if the …

Abstract Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) is a metabolite of mold with high toxicity, the early warning is of
significance to prevent stored maize from AFB1 contamination. Catalase (CAT) is a …

Recent biological terrorism threats and outbreaks of microbial pathogens clearly emphasize
the need for biosensors that can quickly and accurately identify infectious agents. The …
