Project overview
The organism would initially be designed to sense a wide range of pathogens – the coliform bacterias, Escherichia coli, Shigella, Campylobacter, Salmonella enteritidis, Helicobacter sp., Vibrio cholera, Mycobacterium avium and the protozoans Giardia lamblia, Cryptosporidium sp., Cyclospora sp. and Toxoplasma sp. These cause a range of serious diseases such as dysentery, typhoid, cholera and many gastrointestinal infections.
History of development
- Early Brainstorming & Other Crazy Ideas
- A Selected Primary Idea: Sensing Pathogens & Biochip
- v1.0: A completed Design Proposal & Basic Model
- The final proposal: The hybrid-hybrid Sensor
