Research Article: Development of a Magnetically-Assisted SERS Biosensor for Rapid Bacterial Detection
Introduction:
Bacterial infections continue to pose a significant public health concern, affecting an estimated million people worldwide and resulting in nearly , deaths annually. , Current methods, including plate culture, polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA), are commonly employed for pathogen detection. These methods for bacterial detection typically take at least hours to complete, involving processes such as isolation, cultivation, and identification of the bacteria. This process…
