Cover Story: Handheld devices for monitoring residual Ampicillin (AMP), a β−lactam antibiotic commonly used in both humans and animals, are of high interest to prevent the emergence of multi-drug resistance. A joint research from University Paris-Saclay, Synchrotron Soleil from France, and University Tunis El Manar from Tunisia designed sensitive and selective electrochemical biosensors for ampicillin monitoring in river water. The biosensors are based on an aptamer anchored on a nanostructure formed with MoS2 nanosheets and conductive polypyrrole nanoparticles deposited on screen-printed electrodes and demonstrated a wide range of detection with a limit of detection of 10pg/L and ability to detect low levels in river water. This device is a promising tool for monitoring organic pollutants in rivers using tailored aptamers. View this paper
