Strategy
Guidelines for an ideal biosensor:
Biological
- Uses minimal biological machinery
- Direct induction of system by inducer creates a sensitive system
- Versatile construct can measure different substances/toxins, i.e. arabinose (proof of concept), lead, mercury, arsenic
Engineering
- Compact system for sample analysis
- Economically feasible
