Electrochemical Sensor to Detect Antibiotics in Milk Based on Machine Learning Algorithms.

The present study is dedicated to the problem of electrochemical analysis of multicomponent mixtures, such as milk. A combination of cyclic voltammetry facilities and machine learning techniques made it possible to create a pattern recognition system for the detection of antibiotic residues in skimmed milk. A multielectrode sensor including copper, nickel, and carbon fiber was fabricated for the collection of electrochemical data.

Universal Method Based on Layer-by-Layer Assembly for Aptamer-Based Sensors for Small-Molecule Detection.

Development of a fast and accurate pesticide analysis system is a challenging task, as a large amount of commonly used pesticide has negative effects on humans' health. Detection of pesticide residues is crucial for food safety management and environmental protection. Aptamers─short single-stranded oligonucleotides (RNA or DNA) selected by aptamer selection method SELEX─can selectively bind to their target pesticide molecules with high affinity.

Soft Hydrogel Actuator for Fast Machine-Learning-Assisted Bacteria Detection.

We demonstrate that our bio-electrochemical platform facilitates the reduction of detection time from the 3-day period of the existing tests to 15 min. Machine learning and robotized bioanalytical platforms require the principles such as hydrogel-based actuators for fast and easy analysis of bioactive analytes. Bacteria are fragile and environmentally sensitive microorganisms that require a special environment to support their lifecycles during analytical tests.

Silver melamine thin film as a flexible platform for SERS analysis.

New SERS detection platforms are required for the quick and easy preparation of sensing devices for food, agriculture, and environmental science. For quantitative sensing, it is important that a sensing material, in addition to efficient sensing, provides extraction and concentration of the target molecules such as toxic pesticides or healthy vitamins. We design such films adopting the Liesegang rings formation process that includes the reaction-diffusion of silver nitrate and melamine followed by the precipitation of different intermediates and their reduction by light in a pectin medium.

ElectroSens Platform with a Polyelectrolyte-Based Carbon Fiber Sensor for Point-of-Care Analysis of Zn in Blood and Urine.

In this paper, we describe an electrochemical sensing platform-ElectroSens-for the detection of Zn based on self-assembled polyelectrolyte multilayers on the carbon fiber (CF) electrode surface. The CF-extended surface facilitates the usage of a small volume electrochemical cell (1 mL) without stirring. This approach allows making a low-cost three-electrode platform.

Ultrasound-assisted fabrication of gluten-free dough for automatic producing dumplings.

Nowadays celiac disease is becoming more common. It is the autonomic genetic disease that is accompanied by damage to the intestines due to a reaction to eating some proteins. People who are suffering from celiac disease cannot eat food containing gluten, including dough made from gluten-containing seeds.
