This project focuses on developing new gel-based sensors for the rapid detection of bacterial infections, particularly those caused by slow-growing pathogens like tuberculosis. By utilizing customizable gels and odorant-specific peptides, the aim is to create efficient tools for early diagnosis and infection control.
Antimicrobial resistant bacteria are a global threat spreading at an alarming pace.
They cause over 25,000 annual deaths in the EU, and represent an economic burden exceeding €1.5 billion a year.
Current methods for microbial detection in clinical settings take about 24-36 h, but for slow-growing bacteria, as those causing tuberculosis, it can take more than a week.
Early-detection and confinement of the infected individuals are the only ways to provide adequate therapy and control infection spr…
