Application

α-Naphthylamine and sulfanilic acid are used for detection of nitrate reduction by bacteria. Organisms containing nitrate reductase reduce nitrate to nitrite, which forms a diazonium salt with sulfanilic acid and reacts with α-naphthylamine to form a red azo dye.

A bifunctional adenosine-sensitive double-stranded DNA aptamer was used to create and control a surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) hot spot between a bulk Au surface and a gold nanoparticle (Au NP) attached to the aptamer via a biotin-avidin linkage. The Au

We present a microfluidic technique for sensitive, real-time, optimized detection of airborne water-soluble molecules by surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). The method is based on a free-surface fluidic device in which a pressure-driven liquid microchannel flow is constrained by surface tension.

A novel bacterial consortium (TJ-2) for mineralization of aromatic amines resulting from decolorization of azo dyes was developed. Three bacterial strains were identified as Pseudomonas pseudoalcaligenes (TJ-21,EU072476), Pseudomonas citronellolis (TJ-22,EU072477) and Pseudomonas testosterone (TJ-23,EU072477) by 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis.

An elusive chemical contribution to SERS is investigated by estimating the chemical coupling strengths through a dynamic relative peak analysis during solvent evaporation from a diluted chemical sample that is drop-deposited on a soft SERS substrate.

There are many other methods of detection to indicate the presence of E. coli. Review common tests and biochemical reactions for this contaminant.

Campylobacter Detection and Identification

Specific agars and broths support detection and cultivation of Campylobacter, requiring complex media with essential supplements.

Vibrio Detection

Vibrios are motile, curved or comma-shaped bacilli and have a single polar flagella with sheet proteins. They are often found in open water, freshwater and saltwater.
