Pathogenic contamination and resistant bacterial infections remain critical concerns in both developed and developing countries. Rapid and sensitive detection of pathogens is still a key requirement for both environmental and clinical settings. This article introduces a simple, colorimetric, cost-effective, and high-throughput system based on a positively charged iron oxide/enzyme complex for the detection of both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria in water between 10 and 10 cfu/mL. This study provides an effective strategy for the identification and purification of pathogen contamination in drinking water.
在发达国家和发展中国家,病原污染和耐药菌感染仍然是人们关注的焦点。快速、灵敏地检测病原体仍然是环境和临床环境的关键要求。本文介绍了一种简单、比色、经济高效、高通量的系统,该系统基于带正电荷的氧化铁/酶复合物,用于检测水介质中 10 至 10 cfu/mL 之间的革兰氏阳性菌和革兰氏阴性菌。本研究为鉴定和净化饮用水中的病原体污染提供了一种有效的策略。
