Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major threat to human health worldwide, and the rapid
detection and quantification of resistance, combined with antimicrobial stewardship, are key …

Existing at the interface of biology and electronics, living cells have been in use as
biorecognition elements (bioreceptors) in biosensors since the early 1970s. They are an …

There is an urgent need to develop simple and fast antimicrobial susceptibility tests (ASTs)
that allow informed prescribing of antibiotics. Here, we describe a label-free AST that can …

Since its first demonstration as a promising material for molecular detection two decades
