AI-assisted smartphone-based colorimetric biosensor for visualized, rapid and sensitive detection of pathogenic bacteria.

Accurate and effective detection is essential to against bacterial infection and contamination. Novel biosensors, which detect bacterial bioproducts and convert them into measurable signals, are attracting attention. We developed an artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted smartphone-based colorimetric biosensor for the visualized, rapid, sensitive detection of pathogenic bacteria by measuring the bacteria secreted hyaluronidase (HAase).
