Description
Summary:<i>Lactobacillus brevis</i> is the most common bacteria that causes beer spoilage. In this work, a novel electrochemical immunosensor was fabricated for ultra-sensitive determination of <i>L. brevis.</i> Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were firstly electro-deposited on the electrode surface for enhancing the electro-conductivity and specific surface area. Ionic liquid was used for improving the immobilization performance of the immunosensor. After optimization, a linear regression equation can be observed between the ∆<sub>current</sub> and concentration of <i>L. brevis</i> from 10<sup>4</sup> CFU/mL to 10<sup>9</sup> CFU/mL. The limit of detection can be estimated to be 10<sup>3</sup> CFU/mL.
