Seroprevalence of brucellosis in cows and buffaloes

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied and Experimental Biology
Brucellosis poses a significant zoonotic risk to humans and animals, and is caused by the Gram-negative bacteria of the Brucella species. In cows and buffaloes, infection is typically attributed to Brucella abortus, often resulting in abortion during ...

Printed 2.5D‐Microstructures with Material‐Specific Functionalization for Tunable Biosensing

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
The 2.5D‐MiSENSE platform integrates a microstructured biosensor with an in‐line milking pipeline to enable real‐time detection of mastitis biomarkers during active milk flow. The system uses a 2.5D microengineered surface and patterned electrodes to enhance milk–sensor interaction.

Electronic Nose for Indoor Mold Detection and Identification

open access: yesAdvanced Sensor Research, EarlyView.
This study explores the potential of a SnO2 nanowire‐based chemiresistive electronic nose not only to detect but also to identify two common indoor mold species, Stachybotrys chartarum and Chaetomium globosum on two different growth substrates. In a laboratory setup, the electronic nose displays high classification performance using optimized linear ...
