Uncovering the behavior of screen-printed carbon electrodes modified with polymers molecularly imprinted with lipopolysaccharide

In the context of global issues concerning pathogen contamination surface and ground waters, this pioneering study describes fabrication screen-printed carbon electrodes modified with polymers molecularly imprinted lipopolysaccharide in an attempt to detect endotoxins derived from specific Gram-negative bacteria. The biosensors detected lipopolysaccharides Pseudomonas Aeruginosa high specificity, relative control sensors, while response same endotoxin Escherichia coli was quite different.
