Pathogenic bacterial contamination is a major threat to human health and safety. In this
review, we summarize recent strategies for the integration of recognition elements with …

Identifying pathogens in food and drinking water has always been an important task.
Escherichia coli (E. coli) is one of these pathogens found in food and water samples …

Rapid, inexpensive, and sensitive detection of bacterial pathogens is an important goal for
several aspects of human health and safety. We present a simple strategy for detecting a …

In nature, different types of bacteria including pathogenic and beneficial ones exist in
different habitats including environment, plants, animals, and humans. Among these, the …

A novel enzyme‐induced metallization colorimetric assay is developed to monitor and
measure beta‐galactosidase (β‐gal) activity, and is further employed for colorimetric …

The effective monitoring, identification, and quantification of pathogenic bacteria is essential
for addressing serious public health issues. In this study, we present a universal and facile …

In this study, we demonstrate a bacteriophage (phage)-based magnetic separation scheme
for the rapid detection of Escherichia coli (E. coli) in drinking water. T7 phage is a lytic phage …

Foodborne illnesses resulting from bacterial pathogens pose an increasing threat to human
health worldwide. The ability to more rapidly and sensitively detect bacteria in food samples …

The development of materials with intrinsically antimicrobial activities has attracted great
interest. Herein, we report the synthesis of free-standing and robust poly (ionic liquid)(PIL) …

The rapid, sensitive, and selective detection of foodborne pathogens is important to ensure
food safety. Culture medium‐based methods for bacteria detection have long been used …
