Research Highlight: Electrochemical Detection of Foodborne Pathogens with Functionalized Magnetic Nanoparticles

At the BIOMATSEN 2025 – 10th International Congress on Biomaterials and Biosensors (Oludeniz, Turkey), Dr. Vasa Radonić, coordinator of the Know4Nano project, delivered an invited lecture titled:
“Electrochemical Detection of Salmonella and Listeria with Functionalized Magnetic Nanoparticles.”

The presentation showcased recent advances in the development of electrochemical biosensors based on functionalized magnetic nanoparticles, emphasizing their potential for rapid, sensitive, and selective detection of foodborne pathogens. Such approaches are critical for improving food safety monitoring and have broader applications in environmental and clinical diagnostics.

In addition to his lecture, Dr. Radonić served as a session chair and as a jury member for best poster presentations, further contributing to the international exchange of expertise in the fields of biosensors and materials science.

This research exemplifies the Know4Nano mission to bridge fundamental nanotechnology research with practical biosensing applications.
