Title: Carbon nanotube-based aptasensors for the rapid and ultrasensitive detection of bacteria. Author: Zelada-Guillén GA, Blondeau P, Rius FX, Riu J. Journal: Methods; 2013 Oct; 63(3):233-8. PubMed ID: 23872060. Abstract: In this paper we present a new generation of potentiometric biosensors based on carbon nanotubes (transducer layer of the biosensor) and aptamers (sensing layer of the biosensor) for the ultralow and selective detection of microorganisms. We show that with these aptasensors we were able to detect a few CFU of the target bacteria almost in real-time, both in buffered and in real samples.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
