Typhimurium. The aptamers were identified by using a modified cell-based SELEX method (cell-SELEX) by adopting an alternating negative-positive selection strategy. Each cross-reactive population was used separately, with a focus on generating strain-specific aptamers in order to enhance selectivity. The aptamers were characterized and chemically modified with thiol groups at the 5? end which enables covalent binding to gold nanoparticles on a screen printed carbon electrode (GNP-SPCE). The aptamer-modified GNP-SPCE was subsequently applied to impedimetric sensing of S. Typhimurium in water and food samples. The response is linear in the 10 to 105 CFU?mL?1 concentration range, and the limit of detection is ~10 CFU?mL?1. The assay can distinguish S. Typhimurium from S. Typhi and has been validated in water and spiked egg samples. PB - Springer JF - Mcrichimica Acta VL - 184 KW - S.
