Developing Biosensors for Safety and Quality

Numerous researchers in academia are developing biosensors for detection of pathogenic and spoilage bacteria. Here are a few profiles of research teams that are working on biosensing technologies.

University of Wisconsin–Madison
Professor Sundaram Gunasekaran and his colleagues at the University of Wisconsin–Madison are developing a biosensor that uses color-changing gold nanoparticles to provide rapid and highly sensitive visible detection of bacteria without requiring a readout device. At nano…
