Development of immunosensors for salmonella typhimurium

Abstract

The accidental contamination of Salmonella in raw and processed foods is a major problem for the food and feed industries worldwide. Rapid detection methods for monitoring and identification are required to solve the health and safety problems related to these pathogenic bacteria. Current detection methods require extensive sample preparation and prolonged assay procedures, thus, this research project focused on developing rapid methods which are capable of sensing these microorganisms at a high sensitivity level.
