Popis: Rapid-response biosensing systems are necessary to counteract threats due to high-consequence pathogens. A disposable immunosensor suitable for quantitative determination of E.coli O157:H7 in pure cultures was investigated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Electric responses of this biosensor for different cell concentrations at multi-frequencies were explored utilizing disposable screen-printed silver four-wire interdigitated microelectrodes (IMEs). Additionally, the best response frequency for the detection was studied, and the relationship between the impedance at this frequency and the concentrations of E.coli O157:H7 was established. The results showed that the impedance biosensor showed linearity from 1.15×103 CFU/mL to 1.15×106 CFU/mL at 100Hz, which yielded the model coefficient to 0.951.
