title = "A novel microfluidic whole cell biosensor based on electrochemical detection for water toxicity analysis",
abstract = "Over the last few years, the physical dimensions of microchip devices have decreased, enhancing the interest in the integration of various devices and complex operations onto a compatible {"}lab on a chip{"} system with desirable characteristics and capabilities. This work presents a novel μ-fluidics whole cell biosensor for water toxicity analysis. The biosensor is based on bacterial cells genetically {"}tailored{"} to generate an electrochemical bio-signal in the presence of toxic materials. The μ-chip was electrochemically characterized, and demonstrated the potential toxicity analysis with a model toxicant. A novel concept of bacterial biosensors deposition by means of electrophoretic force was examined for the first time. Preliminary results demonstrated the ability to detect electrochemical signal generated by the deposited bacterial cells indicating the potential use for patterning of bacterial cells on solid-state surfaces for the use in bio-sensing.",
