A Bacteriophage Protein-Based Impedimetric Electrochemical Biosensor for the Detection of .

is a common foodborne pathogen found in poultry that can cause severe life-threatening illnesses in humans. It is important to detect this pathogen in food to manage foodborne outbreaks. This study reports a novel impedimetric phage protein-based biosensor to detect NCTC 11168 at 100 CFU/mL concentrations using a genetically engineered receptor-binding phage protein, FlaGrab, as a bioreceptor.

Investigation of the Efficacy of a Biosensor Using Chicken Broth Samples.

Foodborne pathogens are microbes present in food that cause serious illness when the contaminated food is consumed. Among these pathogens, is one of the most serious bacterial pathogens, and causes severe illness. The techniques currently used for detection are based on common molecular biology tools that are not easy to implement for field use in food production and distribution facilities.

Lab-on-a-Chip Electrochemical Biosensors for Foodborne Pathogen Detection: A Review of Common Standards and Recent Progress.

Foodborne pathogens are an important diagnostic target for the food, beverage, and health care industries due to their prevalence and the adverse effects they can cause to public health, food safety, and the economy. The standards that determine whether a given type of food is fit for consumption are set by governments and must be taken into account when designing a new diagnostic tool such as a biosensor platform. In order to meet these stringent detection limits, cost, and reliability standards, recent research has been focused on developing lab-on-a-chip-based approaches for detection devices that use microfluidic channels and platforms.
