The objective of this project is to create a miniaturised and cost-effective electrochemical biosensor device that can detect multiple pathogens, simultaneously, even at very low level of concentrations. This device will be crucial for rapidly detect pathogen contamination in food and water to monitor their safety and quality, particularly beneficial in an outbreak or natural disaster for testing these resources. In addition to food and water, the successful development of this versatile cost-effective sensor will benefit a wide range of companies such as pharmaceuticals, medical device manufacturing and farms for controlling product quality where detection of life threatening pathogens is pivotal to prevent risk for consumers.

该项目的目标是创建一种具有成本效益的电化学生物传感器设备，可以同时检测多种病原体，即使在非常低的浓度水平。该设备对于快速检测食品和水中的病原体污染以监测其安全性和质量至关重要，特别是在爆发或自然灾害时用于测试这些资源。除了食品和水之外，这种多功能的成本效益传感器的成功开发将使制药，医疗设备制造和农场等广泛的公司受益，以控制产品质量，其中检测威胁生命的病原体对于预防消费者风险至关重要。
