Automated Real-time Detection of Target Pathogenic Bacteria at Low Concentrations
FY 2021-22 · 2021-08-16
Summary
The goal of the project is to develop novel strain-specific bio-sensors capable of distinguishing low concentrations of pathogenic bacteria in near-real-time regime. The sensor technology will be developed alongside automated sampling and processing platform capable of independent operation at a food processing and water treatment plants. The sensor technology development will include investigation of electrochemical and opto-magnetic detection technologies and will be based on company’s previous work in the area of pathogen sensor development.

Description (French)
L'objectif du projet est de concevoir de nouveaux biocapteurs propres à chaque souche, capables de distinguer de faibles concentrations de bactéries pathogènes en temps quasi réel. La technologie des capteurs sera créée parallèlement à une plateforme d'échantillonnage et de traitement automatisée, capable de fonctionner de manière indépendante dans des usines de transformation alimentaire et de traitement des eaux. Le développement de la technologie des capteurs comprendra l'étude des technologies de détection électrochimique et opto-magnétique, et reposera sur les travaux antérieurs de l'entreprise dans le domaine de la mise au point de capteurs de pathogènes.
