Abstract
Food safety became one of the most critical issues owing to the large expansion of international trading and emission of various pollutants in air, water and soil. Fungal contamination of food and feed has attracted most of the attention in the last decade because of the emerging analytical tools that facilitate the detection and discrimination of fungal species in imported foodstuff, seeds, grains, plants, meats …etc. In this work, we give an insight on the application of integrated attenuated total reflection-Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy and artificial-intelligence algorithms to the determination and discrimination of fungal species/strains which potentially infect plants, seeds and grains. The proposed method is based on a microcontroller which allows the PC to analyze a large number of samples via serial connection with an UART module. Penicillium chrysogenum, Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus fumigatus, Aspergillus solani, Aspergillus flavus and two different strains of Fusarium oxysporum were used as model microorganisms. The use of artificial-intelligence algorithms herein provides the advantage of automation enabling high throughput screening of large numbers of food samples in less than 5 s. In addition, the classification accuracy is enhanced by applying these machine-learning classification techniques. Principle component analysis (PCA) was used in order to extract the spectral discriminative features from the recorded fungal FTIR spectra. Three intelligent methods of classification; namely, artificial neural network (ANN), support-vector machine (SVM) and k-nearest neighbor (KNN), were used in this study in order to prove that integration of spectroscopic measurements with varying machine-learning methods give a simple analytical tool for detection and classification of foodborne pathogens. All the utilized classifiers gave an accuracy of 100 % and were able to discriminate different species and/or strains of the investigated fungi in few milliseconds.

Abstract
Salmonella, the prevailing zoonotic pathogen within the Enterobacteriaceae family, holds the foremost position in global bacterial poisoning incidents, thereby signifying its paramount importance in public health. Consequently, the imperative for expeditious and uncomplicated detection techniques for Salmonella in food is underscored. After more than two decades of development, loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) has emerged as a potent adjunct to the polymerase chain reaction, demonstrating significant advantages in the realm of isothermal amplification. Its growing prominence is evident in the increasing number of reports on its application in the rapid detection of Salmonella. This paper provides a systematic exposition of the technical principles and characteristics of LAMP, along with an overview of the research progress made in the rapid detection of Salmonella using LAMP and its derivatives. Additionally, the target genes reported in various levels, including Salmonella genus, species, serogroup, and serotype, are summarized, aiming to offer a valuable reference for the advancement of LAMP application in Salmonella detection. Finally, we look forward to the development direction of LAMP and expect more competitive methods to provide strong support for food safety applications.

A Diagnostic Chip for the Colorimetric Detection of Legionella pneumophila in Less than 3 h at the Point of Need. BIOSENSORS 2024; 14:228. [PMID: 38785702 PMCID: PMC11118137 DOI: 10.3390/bios14050228] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2024] [Revised: 04/23/2024] [Accepted: 05/01/2024] [Indexed: 05/25/2024]
Abstract
Legionella pneumophila has been pinpointed by the World Health Organization as the highest health burden of all waterborne pathogens in the European Union and is responsible for many disease outbreaks around the globe. Today, standard analysis methods (based on bacteria culturing onto agar plates) need several days (~12) in specialized analytical laboratories to yield results, not allowing for timely actions to prevent outbreaks. Over the last decades, great efforts have been made to develop more efficient waterborne pathogen diagnostics and faster analysis methods, requiring further advancement of microfluidics and sensors for simple, rapid, accurate, inexpensive, real-time, and on-site methods. Herein, a lab-on-a-chip device integrating sample preparation by accommodating bacteria capture, lysis, and DNA isothermal amplification with fast (less than 3 h) and highly sensitive, colorimetric end-point detection of L. pneumophila in water samples is presented, for use at the point of need. The method is based on the selective capture of viable bacteria on on-chip-immobilized and -lyophilized antibodies, lysis, the loop-mediated amplification (LAMP) of DNA, and end-point detection by a color change, observable by the naked eye and semiquantified by computational image analysis. Competitive advantages are demonstrated, such as low reagent consumption, portability and disposability, color change, storage at RT, and compliance with current legislation.

Abstract
Salmonella is a common intestinal pathogen that can cause food poisoning and intestinal disease. The high prevalence of Salmonella necessitates efficient and sensitive methods for its identification, detection, and monitoring, especially of viable Salmonella. Conventional culture methods need to be more laborious and time-consuming. And they are relatively limited in their ability to detect Salmonella in the viable but non-culturable status if present in the sample to be tested. As a result, there is an increasing need for rapid and accurate techniques to detect viable Salmonella spp. This paper reviewed the status and progress of various methods reported in recent years that can be used to detect viable Salmonella, such as culture-based methods, molecular methods targeting RNAs and DNAs, phage-based methods, biosensors, and some techniques that have the potential for future application. This review can provide researchers with a reference for additional method options and help facilitate the development of rapid and accurate assays. In the future, viable Salmonella detection approaches will become more stable, sensitive, and fast and are expected to play a more significant role in food safety and public health.

Abstract
The dairy sector is frequently affected by contagious and environmental factors that spread between animals by numerous means and induce the inflammatory disease of bovine mastitis (BM). Herein, silver decorated porous silicon (Ag-pSi) SERS platform was designed for rapid and reliable Escherichia coli (predominant BM pathogen) detection in various milk origins. The inherent surface void and pore morphology were physically optimized to augment the SERS effect using 4-aminothiphenol (4ATP) while achieving an enhancement factor >4.6 × 107. An indirect immunoassay evaluated the residual unreacted antibodies using an optimized 4ATP/Ag-pSi SERS platform modified with secondary antibodies. Under optimized conditions, the porous substrate offered high sensitivity toward target bacteria detection of 3 CFU mL-1 and linear response of 101-105 CFU mL-1. Moreover, the selectivity and specificity of the designed sensing platform were cross-validated against other interfering bacteria without compromising its performance efficiencies. Finally, the applicability of the developed system for real-life conditions was elucidated in different milk samples (bovine, goat, sheep) with recovery values of 78-115% compared to the conventional culture technique. Considering the complex media analysis, the miniaturized SERS platform is highly reliable, rapid and accurate that could be applicable for routine on-site analysis of various emerging pathogens relevant to BM management.

Abstract
For effective treatment, it is crucial to identify the infecting bacterium at the species level and to determine its antimicrobial susceptibility. This is especially true now, when numerous bacteria have developed multidrug resistance to most commonly used antibiotics. Currently used methods need ∼ 48 h to identify a bacterium and determine its susceptibility to specific antibiotics. This study reports the potential of using infrared spectroscopy with machine learning algorithms to identify E. coli isolated directly from patients' urine while simultaneously determining its susceptibility to antibiotics within ∼ 40 min after receiving the patient's urine sample. For this goal, 1,765 E. coli isolates purified directly from urine samples were collected from patients with urinary tract infections (UTIs). After collection, the samples were tested by infrared microscopy and analyzed by machine learning. We achieved success rates of ∼ 96% in isolate level identification and ∼ 84% in susceptibility determination.

Abstract
The increase in outbreaks of emerging and re-emerging bacterial infections over the last few decades calls for their rapid detection and treatment. Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is a technique that can be applied to develop fast screening systems for bacterial presence in biological samples. Optimizing the capping agents in nanoparticle synthesis is important because capping agents are responsible for controlling the morphological features and chemical properties of the nanoparticles that are essential for SERS. To the best of our knowledge, this paper is the first to study the application of gold nanoparticles capped with thioglucose and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) in SERS detection of bacteria as an alternative to the citrate-capped gold nanoparticles that are often used in SERS detection of bacteria. Three different species of bacteria were used in this study: Cutibacterium acnes, Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus (methicillin-sensitive and methicillin-resistant). This study demonstrates that the thioglucose, citrate both show good contribution in bacterial species identification and the thioglucose shows the best among the three capping agents in two types of S. aureus identification. Moreover, although PVP showed high Raman peaks in the SERS spectrum for each type of bacteria, it showed least contribution in identifying species and strains due to its low efficacy in producing responses from different nucleic acid components in the bacteria cells.

Abstract
Milk and dairy products are common foods and, therefore, are subject to regular controls. Such controls cover both the identification and quantification of specific components and the determination of physical parameters. Components include the usual milk ingredients, mainly carbohydrates, proteins, and fat, and any impurities that may be present. The latter range from small molecules, such as drug residues, to large molecules, e.g., protein-based toxins, to pathogenic microorganisms. Physical parameters of interest include viscosity as an indicator of milk gelation. Bulk and surface acoustic wave sensors, such as quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) and surface acoustic wave (SAW) devices, can principally be used for both types of analysis, with the actual application mainly depending on the device coating and the test format. This review summarizes the achievements of acoustic sensor devices used for milk analysis applications, including the determination of physical liquid parameters and the detection of low- and high-molecular-weight analytes and microorganisms. It is shown how the various requirements resulting from the respective analytes and the complex sample matrix are addressed, and to what extent the analytical demands, e.g., with regard to legal limits, are met.

Abstract
The accuracy of two molecular tests, PCR and loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay were compared with bacterial culture in detection of salmonella in poultry clinical samples. The icIR family transcriptional regulator gene was targeted and out of 56 clinical specimens, 20 poultry field isolates were found positive for salmonella. Along with human isolates, reference strains of three different serovars, Salmonella Enteritidis (S. Enteritidis), S. Typhimurium and S. Infantis, were also tested. Eight different but genetically closely related bacterial genera (Klebsiella, Pseudomonas, Enterobacter, Campylobacter, Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, Escherichia and Pasteurella) were also used to evaluate the specificity of assay. The LAMP assay showed 80.8% sensitivity (95% CI, 0.66-0.95) and 100% specificity (95% CI, 0.71-1.00) when compared with microbiological culture and PCR, both with 100% sensitivity (95% CI, 0.87-1.00) and 100% specificity (95% CI, 0.71-1.00). High-resolution melt (HRM) curve analysis following PCR was able to differentiate between salmonella isolates based on their melting points, and all specimens were genotyped in three distinct HRM curve profiles. Each normalised melt curve profile represented one salmonella serotype and differences between the three melt profiles were correlated with nucleotide variations in the target gene sequences which demonstrated high discriminatory power of this technique. The colourimetric LAMP assay provided an alternative detection method capable of being used in the field and showed analytical sensitivity for detection of 1 pg of salmonella DNA per reaction. The advantages and disadvantages of each test in detection of salmonella are discussed.

Abstract
Several viral infectious diseases appear limitless since the beginning of the 21st century, expanding into pandemic lengths. Thus, there are extensive efforts to provide more efficient means of diagnosis, a better understanding of acquired immunity, and improved monitoring of inflammatory biomarkers, as these are all crucial for controlling the spread of infection while aiding in vaccine development and improving patient outcomes. In this regard, various biosensors have been developed recently to streamline pathogen and immune response detection by addressing the limitations of traditional methods, including isothermal amplification-based systems and lateral flow assays. This review explores state-of-the-art biosensors for detecting viral pathogens, serological assays, and inflammatory biomarkers from the material perspective, by discussing their advantages, limitations, and further potential regarding their analytical performance, clinical utility, and point-of-care adaptability. Additionally, next-generation biosensing technologies that offer better sensitivity and selectivity, and easy handling for end-users are highlighted. An emerging example of these next-generation biosensors are those powered by novel synthetic biology tools, such as clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) with CRISPR-associated proteins (Cas), in combination with integrated point-of-care devices. Lastly, the current challenges are discussed and a roadmap for furthering these advanced biosensing technologies to manage future pandemics is provided.

Abstract
Loop-mediated isothermal amplification is known for its high sensitivity, specificity and tolerance to inhibiting-substances. In this work, we developed a device for performing real-time colorimetric LAMP combining the accuracy of lab-based quantitative analysis with the simplicity of point-of-care testing. The device innovation lies on the use of a plastic tube anchored vertically on a hot surface while the side walls are exposed to a mini camera able to take snapshots of the colour change in real time during LAMP amplification. Competitive features are the rapid analysis (< 30 min), quantification over 9 log-units, crude sample-compatibility (saliva, tissue, swabs), low detection limit (< 5 copies/reaction), smartphone-operation, fast prototyping (3D-printing) and ability to select the dye of interest (Phenol red, HNB). The device’s clinical utility is demonstrated in cancer mutations-analysis during the detection of 0.01% of BRAF-V600E-to-wild-type molecules from tissue samples and COVID-19 testing with 97% (Ct < 36.8) and 98% (Ct < 30) sensitivity when using extracted RNA and nasopharyngeal-swabs, respectively. The device high technology-readiness-level makes it a suitable platform for performing any colorimetric LAMP assay; moreover, its simple and inexpensive fabrication holds promise for fast deployment and application in global diagnostics.

Abstract
Diverse chemicals and some physical phenomena recently introduced in nanotechnology have enabled scientists to develop useful devices in the field of food sciences. Concerning such developments, detecting foodborne pathogenic bacteria is now an important issue. These kinds of bacteria species have demonstrated severe health effects after consuming foods and high mortality related to acute cases. The most leading path of intoxication and infection has been through food matrices. Hence, quick recognition of foodborne bacteria agents at low concentrations has been required in current diagnostics. Lateral flow assays (LFAs) are one of the urgent and prevalently applied quick recognition methods that have been settled for recognizing diverse types of analytes. Thus, the present review has stressed on latest developments in LFAs-based platforms to detect various foodborne pathogenic bacteria such as Salmonella, Listeria, Escherichia coli, Brucella, Shigella, Staphylococcus aureus, Clostridium botulinum, and Vibrio cholera. Proper prominence has been given on exactly how the labels, detection elements, or procedures have affected recent developments in the evaluation of diverse bacteria using LFAs. Additionally, the modifications in assays specificity and sensitivity consistent with applied food processing techniques have been discussed. Finally, a conclusion has been drawn for highlighting the main challenges confronted through this method and offered a view and insight of thoughts for its further development in the future.

Abstract
Magnetic cell separation has become a key methodology for the isolation of target cell populations from biological suspensions, covering a wide spectrum of applications from diagnosis and therapy in biomedicine to environmental applications or fundamental research in biology. There now exists a great variety of commercially available separation instruments and reagents, which has permitted rapid dissemination of the technology. However, there is still an increasing demand for new tools and protocols which provide improved selectivity, yield and sensitivity of the separation process while reducing cost and providing a faster response. This review aims to introduce basic principles of magnetic cell separation for the neophyte, while giving an overview of recent research in the field, from the development of new cell labeling strategies to the design of integrated microfluidic cell sorters and of point-of-care platforms combining cell selection, capture, and downstream detection. Finally, we focus on clinical, industrial and environmental applications where magnetic cell separation strategies are amongst the most promising techniques to address the challenges of isolating rare cells.

Abstract
Biosensors for sensitive and specific detection of foodborne and waterborne pathogens are particularly valued for their portability, usability, relatively low cost, and real-time or near real-time response. Their application is widespread in several domains, including environmental monitoring. The main limitation of currently developed biosensors is a lack of sensitivity and specificity in complex matrices. Due to increased interest in biosensor development, we conducted a systematic review, complying with the PRISMA guidelines, covering the period from January 2010 to December 2019. The review is focused on biosensor applications in the identification of foodborne and waterborne microorganisms based on research articles identified in the Pubmed, ScienceDirect, and Scopus search engines. Efforts are still in progress to overcome detection limitations and to provide a rapid detection system which will safeguard water and food quality. The use of biosensors is an essential tool with applicability in the evaluation and monitoring of the environment and food, with great impact in public health.

Abstract
Printed circuit board (PCB) technology has been recently proposed as a convenient platform for seamlessly integrating electronics and microfluidics in the same substrate, thus facilitating the introduction of integrated and low-cost microfluidic devices to the market, thanks to the inherent upscaling potential of the PCB industry. Herein, a microfluidic chip, encompassing on PCB both a meandering microchannel and microheaters to accommodate recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA), is designed and commercially fabricated for the first time on PCB. The developed microchip is validated for RPA-based amplification of two E. coli target genes compared to a conventional thermocycler. The RPA performance of the PCB microchip was found to be well-comparable to that of a thermocycler yet with a remarkably lower power consumption (0.6 W). This microchip is intended for seamless integration with biosensors in the same PCB substrate for the development of a point-of-care (POC) molecular diagnostics platform.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Foodborne disease outbreaks continue to be a major public health and food safety concern. Testing products promptly can protect consumers from foodborne diseases by ensuring the safety of food before retail distribution. Fast, sensitive, and accurate detection tools are in great demand. Therefore, various approaches have been explored recently to find a more effective way to incorporate antibodies, oligonucleotides, phages, and mammalian cells as signal transducers and analyte recognition probes on biosensor platforms. The ultimate goal is to achieve high specificity and low detection limits (1 to 100 bacterial cells or piconanogram concentrations of toxins). Advancements in mammalian cell-based and bacteriophage-based sensors have produced sensors that detect low levels of pathogens and differentiate live from dead cells. Combinations of biotechnology platforms have increased the practical utility and application of biosensors for detection of foodborne pathogens. However, further rigorous testing of biosensors with complex food matrices is needed to ensure the utility of these sensors for point-of-care needs and outbreak investigations. HIGHLIGHTS

Abstract
An osmium-coated lensed fiber (OLF) probe combined with a silver-coated black silicon (SBS) substrate was used to generate a dielectrophoretic (DEP) force that traps bacteria and enables Raman signal detection from bacteria. The lensed fiber coated with a 2-nm osmium layer was used as an electrode for the DEP force and also as a lens to excite Raman signals. The black silicon coated with a 150-nm silver layer was used both as the surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) substrate and the counter electrode. The enhanced Raman signal was collected by the same OLF probe and further analyzed with a spectrometer. For Raman measurements, a drop of bacterial suspension was placed between the OLF probe and the SBS substrate. By controlling the frequency of an AC voltage on the OLF probe and SBS substrate, a DEP force at 1 MHz concentrated bacteria on the SBS surface and removed the unbound micro-objects in the solution at 1 kHz. A bacteria concentration of 6 × 104 CFU/mL (colony forming units per mL) could be identified in less than 15 min, using a volume of only 1 μL, by recording the variation of the Raman peak at 740 cm-1.

Abstract
The easy and rapid spread of bacterial contamination and the risk it poses to human health makes evident the need for analytical methods alternative to conventional time-consuming laboratory-based techniques for bacterial detection. To tackle this demand, biosensors based on isothermal DNA amplification methods have emerged, which avoid the need for thermal cycling, thus facilitating their integration into small and low-cost devices for in situ monitoring. This review focuses on the breakthroughs made on biosensors based on isothermal amplification methods for the detection of bacteria in the field of food safety and environmental monitoring. Optical and electrochemical biosensors based on loop mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP), rolling circle amplification (RCA), recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA), helicase dependent amplification (HDA), strand displacement amplification (SDA), and isothermal strand displacement polymerisation (ISDPR) are described, and an overview of their current advantages and limitations is provided. Although further efforts are required to harness the potential of these emerging analytical techniques, the coalescence of the different isothermal amplification techniques with the wide variety of biosensing detection strategies provides multiple possibilities for the efficient detection of bacteria far beyond the laboratory bench.

Integrating acoustic wave sensors into lab-on-a-chip (LoC) devices is a well-known challenge. We address this challenge by designing a microfluidic device housing a monolithic array of 24 high-fundamental frequency quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (HFF-QCMD) sensors. The device features six 6-µL channels of four sensors each for low-volume parallel measurements, a sealing mechanism that provides appropriate pressure control while assuring liquid confinement and maintaining good stability, and provides a mechanical, electrical, and thermal interface with the characterization electronics. We validate the device by measuring the response of the HFF-QCMD sensors to the air-to-liquid transition, for which the robust Kanazawa–Gordon–Mason theory exists, and then by studying the adsorption of model bioanalytes (neutravidin and biotinylated albumin). With these experiments, we show how the effects of the protein–surface interactions propagate within adsorbed protein multilayers, offering essentially new insight into the design of affinity-based bioanalytical sensors.

Abstract
The reliable detection of nucleic acids at low concentrations in clinical samples like blood, urine and saliva, and in food can be achieved by nucleic acid amplification methods. Several portable and hand-held devices have been developed to translate these laboratory-based methods to point-of-care (POC) settings. POC diagnostic devices could potentially play an important role in environmental monitoring, health, and food safety. Use of a smartphone for nucleic acid testing has shown promising progress in endpoint as well as real-time analysis of various disease conditions. The emergence of smartphone-based POC devices together with paper-based sensors, microfluidic chips and digital droplet assays are used currently in many situations to provide quantitative detection of nucleic acid targets. State-of-the-art portable devices are commercially available and rapidly emerging smartphone-based POC devices that allow the performance of laboratory-quality colorimetric, fluorescent and electrochemical detection are described in this review. We present a comprehensive review of smartphone-based POC sensing applications, specifically on microbial diagnostics, assess their performance and propose recommendations for the future.

Abstract
Disposable sensors are low-cost and easy-to-use sensing devices intended for short-term or rapid single-point measurements. The growing demand for fast, accessible, and reliable information in a vastly connected world makes disposable sensors increasingly important. The areas of application for such devices are numerous, ranging from pharmaceutical, agricultural, environmental, forensic, and food sciences to wearables and clinical diagnostics, especially in resource-limited settings. The capabilities of disposable sensors can extend beyond measuring traditional physical quantities (for example, temperature or pressure); they can provide critical chemical and biological information (chemo- and biosensors) that can be digitized and made available to users and centralized/decentralized facilities for data storage, remotely. These features could pave the way for new classes of low-cost systems for health, food, and environmental monitoring that can democratize sensing across the globe. Here, a brief insight into the materials and basics of sensors (methods of transduction, molecular recognition, and amplification) is provided followed by a comprehensive and critical overview of the disposable sensors currently used for medical diagnostics, food, and environmental analysis. Finally, views on how the field of disposable sensing devices will continue its evolution are discussed, including the future trends, challenges, and opportunities.

Abstract
The objective of this work is to develop a methodology and associated platform for nucleic acid detection at the point-of-care (POC) that is sensitive, user-friendly, affordable, rapid, and robust. The heart of this system is an acoustic wave sensor, based on a Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) or Quartz Crystal Microbalance (QCM) device, which is employed for the label-free detection of isothermally amplified target DNA. Nucleic acids amplification and detection is demonstrated inside three crude human samples, i.e., whole blood, saliva, and nasal swab, spiked in with 10-100 Salmonella cells. To qualify for POC applications, a portable platform was developed based on 3D printing, integrating inside a single box: (i) simple fluidics based on plastic tubing and a mini peristaltic pump, (ii) a heating plate combined with disposable reaction tubes for isothermal amplification; (iii) a mini antenna analyzer operated through a tablet; and (iv) an acoustic wave device housing unit. The simplicity of the method combined with smartphone operation and detection, rapid sample-to-answer analysis time (30 min), and high performance (detection limit 4 × 103 CFU/ml) in three of the most important human samples in diagnostics suggest that the methodology could become a tool of choice for nucleic acid detection at the POC. In addition, the low cost of the platform and assay holds promise for its adoption in resource limited areas. The acoustic detection method is shown to give similar results with a standard colorimetric assay carried out in saliva and nasal swab but can also be used to detect nucleic acids inside whole blood, where a colorimetric assay failed to perform.

Abstract
An impedance based microfluidic biosensor for simultaneous and rapid detection of Salmonella serotypes B and D in ready-to-eat (RTE) Turkey matrix has been presented. Detection of Salmonella at a concentration as low as 300 cells/ml with a total detection time of 1 hour has been achieved. The sensor has two sensing regions, with each formed from one interdigitated electrode array (IDE array) consisting of 50 finger pairs. First, Salmonella antibody type B and D were prepared and delivered to the sensor to functionalize each sensing region without causing any cross contamination. Then the RTE Turkey samples spiked with Salmonella types B and D were introduced into the biosensor via the antigen inlet. The response signal resulted from the binding between Salmonella and its specific antibody demonstrated the sensor’s ability to detect a single type of pathogen, and multiple pathogens simultaneously. In addition, the biosensor’s selectivity was tested using non-specific binding of E. coli O157 and E. coli DH5 Alpha while the IDE array was coated with the Salmonella antibody. The results also showed the sensor is capable to differentiate low concentration of live Salmonella cells from high concentration of dead Salmonella cells, and high concentration of E. coli cells. A detailed study on antibody immobilization that includes antibody concentration, antibody coating time (0.5–3 hours) and use of cross-linker has been performed. The study showed that Salmonella antibody to Salmonella antigen is not a factor of antibody concentration after electrodes were saturated with antibody, while the optimal coating time was found to be 1.5 hours, and the use of cross-linker has improved the signal response by 45–60%.

Abstract
This paper reports the design, fabrication, and testing of a microfluidic MEMS biosensor for rapid sensing of low concentration Escherichia coli O157:H7. It consists of a specially designed focusing and sensing region, which enables the biosensor to detect low concentration of bacterial cells. The focusing region consists of a ramped vertical electrode pair made of electroplated gold along with tilted thin film finger pairs (45°) embedded inside a microchannel. The focusing region generates positive dielectrophoresis force, which moves the cells towards the edges of the tilted thin film electrode fingers, located at the center of the microchannel. The fluidic drag force then carries the focused cells to the sensing region, where three interdigitated electrode arrays (IDEAs) with 30, 20, and 10 pairs, respectively, are embedded inside the microchannel. This technique resulted in highly concentrated samples in the sensing region. The sensing IDEAs are functionalized with the anti-E. coli antibody for specific sensing of E. coli 0157:H7. As E. coli binds to the antibody, it results in an impedance change, which is measured across a wide frequency range of 100 Hz-10 MHz. The biosensor was fabricated on a glass substrate using the SU8 epoxy resist to form the microchannel, gold electroplating to form the vertical focusing electrode pair, a thin gold film to form the sensing electrode, the finger electrodes, traces and bonding pads, and polydimethylsiloxane to seal the device. The microfluidic impedance biosensor was tested with various low concentration bacterial samples and was able to detect bacterial concentration, as low as 39 CFU/ml with a total sensing time of 2 h.

Abstract
This paper presents an impedance-based biosensor for rapid and simultaneous detection of Salmonella serotypes B, D, and E with very low concentration. The biosensor consists of a focusing region, and three detection regions. The cells focusing was achieved using a ramp down electroplated vertical electrode pair along with tilted thin film finger pairs that generate p-DEP forces to focus and concentrate the bacterial cells into the center of the microchannel, and direct them toward the detection region. The detection regions consist of three interdigitated electrode arrays (IDEA), each with 20 pairs of finger coated with a mixture of anti-Salmonella antibody and crosslinker to enhance the adhesion to IDEA. The impedance changes as the target Salmonella binds to the antibody. The biosensor has showed excellent performance as proven by the detection of a single Salmonella serotype B, and simultaneous detection of two Salmonella serotypes B and D with a limit of detection (LOD) of 8 Cells/ml in ready-to-eat turkey samples, the addition of focusing capability improved the measured signal by a factor of between 4-4.5, the total detection time of 45 minutes, selectivity of the sensor on different types of bacterial cells, and the ability to distinguish between dead and live cells.

Abstract
This mini-review summarizes the most recent progress concerning the use of surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) for the detection and characterization of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. We first discussed the design and synthesis of various types of nanomaterials that can be used as the SERS-active substrates for biosensing trace levels of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. We then reviewed the tandem-SERS strategy of integrating a separation element/platform with SERS sensing to achieve the detection of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in the environmental, agri-food, and clinical samples. Finally, we demonstrated the application of using SERS to investigate bacterial antibiotic resistance and susceptibility as well as the working mechanism of antibiotics based on spectral fingerprinting of the whole cells.

Abstract
Sensitive and specific DNA biomarker detection is critical for accurately diagnosing a broad range of clinical conditions. However, the incorporation of such biosensing structures in integrated microfluidic devices is often complicated by the need for an additional labelling step to be implemented on the device. In this review we focused on presenting recent advances in label-free DNA biosensor technology, with a particular focus on microfluidic integrated devices. The key biosensing approaches miniaturized in flow-cell structures were presented, followed by more sophisticated microfluidic devices and higher integration examples in the literature. The option of full DNA sequencing on microfluidic chips via nanopore technology was highlighted, along with current developments in the commercialization of microfluidic, label-free DNA detection devices.

Abstract
Loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) has become a powerful alternative to polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for pathogen detection in clinical specimens and food matrices. Nontyphoidal Salmonella is a zoonotic pathogen of significant food and feed safety concern worldwide. The first study employing LAMP for the rapid detection of Salmonella was reported in 2005, 5 years after the invention of the LAMP technology in Japan. This review provides an overview of international efforts in the past decade on the development and application of Salmonella LAMP assays in a wide array of food and feed matrices. Recent progress in assay design, platform development, commercial application, and method validation is reviewed. Future perspectives toward more practical and wider applications of Salmonella LAMP assays in food and feed testing are discussed.
