We describe the development of a field-portable colorimetric immunoassay for the detection of Escherichia coli O157:H7, using antibody-directed liposomes (immunoliposomes) encapsulating dye as an analytical reagent. Antibodies (anti-E. coli O157:H7) thiolated by 2-iminothiolane were coupled to malem

## Abstract A hand held microsystem has been designed for the immunomagnetic detection and quantification of the pathogen __Escherichia coli__ O157:H7 in food and clinical samples (see abstract figure). In this work a technology that facilitates the integration of 3D microfluidic networks with any
## Abstract As the number of incidents of bacterial infections continues to rise around the globe, simpler, faster, and more sensitive diagnostic techniques are required to improve the safety of the food supply and to screen for potential bacterial infections in humans. We present here direct and i
Molecular beacons (MBs) are oligonucleotide probes that fluoresce upon hybridization. In this paper, we described the development of a real-time PCR assay to detect the presence of Escherichia coli O157:H7 using these fluorogenic reporter molecules. MBs were designed to recognize a 26-bp region of t
