New Publication: Detection of multiple pathogens in the meat food matrix

New Publication from the Know4Nano Team: Electrochemical Platform for Simultaneous Detection of Foodborne Pathogens

The Know4Nano team is proud to announce a new scientific publication presenting a novel electrochemical platform based on a gold leaf electrode for the simultaneous detection of multiple pathogens in meat food samples.

The study demonstrates the potential of combining nanotechnology and electrochemical biosensing to improve food safety monitoring through rapid, sensitive, and cost-effective detection methods.

Key features of the developed platform include:

• Multiplex detection capability, enabling the simultaneous identification of multiple foodborne pathogens on a single sensing platform;
• Gold leaf electrode technology, offering a low-cost yet highly sensitive solution for electrochemical sensing applications;
• Rapid analysis, significantly reducing detection time compared to conventional microbiological methods;
• Successful validation in real food matrices, with the system tested directly in meat samples, bringing the technology closer to practical implementation in food quality control.

This work highlights the growing importance of advanced biosensing technologies in protecting public health and ensuring safer food production systems.

The publication represents another important milestone for the Know4Nano consortium and its mission to advance innovative nano-biosensing solutions within the framework of Horizon Europe.
