Quantifying E. coli O157:H7 via linear sweep voltammetry in phosphate buffered saline and tap water

E. coli O157:H7 is a common microorganism that is responsible for contaminating water after major floods events. Standard methods of pathogen detection cannot be utilized in the field; the need for a portable immunosensor becomes urgent so detection of pathogens can be done at remote post-flood ar...
