Jasmina Vidić is dedicated to developing innovative biosensors for analyzing bacteria, membranes, proteins, and DNA. With experience in designing SPR immunosensors, Jasmina has worked on detecting pathogens, including the influenza virus, prion proteins, and various odor molecules. She has also created electrochemical biosensors that use DNA probes, aptamers, and antibodies to detect and monitor pathogens like the hepatitis A virus, influenza virus, Bacillus cereus, Campylobacter, and Staphylococcus aureus. Currently, her research focuses on detecting bacterial pathogens in foods, such as milk and meat, as well as in water. Additionally, Jasmina is involved in nanobiotechnology projects, such as developing bimetallic oxide nanoparticles with antibacterial and antioxidant properties for smart food packaging. She is also working on nanostructured surfaces to enhance optical signals, including chemiluminescence and fluorescence.
