Microfluidic rapid isolation and electrochemical detection of S. pneumonia via aptamer-decorated surfaces
Full Text: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.aca.2025.343726 S. pneumoniae is widely recognized as a leading cause of respiratory infections worldwide, often resulting in high mortality rates. However, the advent of microfluidic technologies has brought significant advancements, including the simplified, sensitive, cost-effective, and rapid approach to pneumococcal bacteremia detection. In this study, a microfluidic magnetic platform is presented for rapid […]
Aptamer decorated PDA@magnetic silica microparticles for bacteria purification
One significant constraint in the advancement of biosensors is the signal-to-noise ratio, which is adversely affected by the presence of interfering factors such as blood in the sample matrix. In the present investigation, a specific aptamer binding was chosen for its affinity, while exhibiting no binding affinity towards non-target bacterial cells. This selective binding […]
