Bacteriophage-Based LAMP for Pathogen Detection

Héctor Morbidoni of the Universidad Nacional de Rosario in Argentina proposes to develop a biosensor to detect bacterial pathogens using modified bacteriophages and an isothermal DNA amplification process. Commercial scale manufacturing of the biosensor should be possible due to the simplicity of their components.
