Research Project:
ASSAY DEVELOPMENT FOR DETECTION OF PATHOGENIC E. COLI IN ENVIRONMENTAL SAMPLES
Project Number: 1265-63000-001-05
Project Type:
Nonfunded Cooperative Agreement
Start Date: Mar 06, 2008
End Date: Jan 01, 2009
Objective:
The objective of this cooperative research project is to develop an assay for the detection of pathogenic E. coli in water, soil, manure and food matrices using an integrated immuno-PCR biosensor.
Approach:
Pathogenic E. coli will be captured and fluorescently labeled with specific monoclonal antibodies. The E. coli cell-antibody complex will subsequently be detected using an immunoassay biosensor followed by PCR characterization.
