Researchers have developed a novel sensor for the detection of bacteria. It is based on a chip with an innovative surface coating. This ensures that only very specific microorganisms adhere to the ...

Each year, bacterial infections claim several million lives worldwide. That is why detecting harmful microorganisms is crucial – not only in the diagnosis of diseases but also, for example, in food ...

Move over, colonoscopies — researchers report in ACS Sensors that they’ve developed a sensor made of tiny microspheres packed with blood-sensing bacteria that detect markers of gastrointestinal ...

Bacteria "pills" that can detect gut diseases could spell the end of painful colonoscopies, scientists say. Chinese researchers have developed a new sensor made of tiny microspheres packed with ...

Tiny sensors, similar to breathalyzers, could “sniff out” bacterial infections and detect antimicrobial-resistant bacteria in bodily fluids, says a team of engineers, microbiologists, and machine ...

Baltimore’s Waterfront Partnership has installed a new bacteria-monitoring station at a Fells Point marina to deliver near-real-time water quality results. The ColiMinder system can detect bacterial ...

A pair of studies from Rice University show that genetically engineered bacteria can turn chemical contamination into ...
