Real-time detection of low concentrations of bacteria is essential in health and
environmental monitoring, and biosensors are promising tools for this. However, the limited …

The detection of biologically infectious agents, such as bacteria, in water is often a
cumbersome process that can only be performed by trained personnel in a well-equipped …

A pathogen detection platform that integrates electrokinetically accelerated sampling with
electromechanical signal transduction is presented. Detection of pathogens without the …

Preconcentration of microparticles or biological entities to a measurable level is required in
many disease detection applications. Motivated by this utilitarian scope, we demonstrate a …

Detecting ultralow concentrations of pathogenic bacteria is important for public health,
environmental monitoring, and therapeutic research. This study presents the development …

Interest in single-cell analysis has increased because it allows to understand cell
metabolism and characterize disease states, cellular adaptation to environmental changes …

Infections caused by various known and emerging pathogenic microorganisms, including
antibiotic-resistant strains, are a major threat to global health and well-being. This highlights …

We present a novel, on-chip system for the electrokinetic capture of bacterial cells and their
identification using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The system comprises a glass …

In our previous paper we have modelled a dielectrophoretic force (DEP) and cell particle
behavior in a microfluidic channel (Weber MU et al 2023 Chip for dielectrophoretic microbial …

Many applications in biotechnology and medicine, among other disciplines, require the
rapid enumeration of bacteria, preferably using miniaturized portable devices. Microfluidic …
