    Dual Detection of Inorganic Arsenic: A Real-Time Screening Method
    The main goal of this project is to develop a generic integrated biosensing platform for the detection and quantification of inorganic Arsenic (iAs) pollutants in aqueous solutions at low-level concentrations. We aim to design and construct dual-biosensing platform (optical and electrochemical transduction), based on porous Si optical biosensors and nanostructured sensing electrodes, both modified by robust capture probes, integrated into a microfluidics device that serves as a lab-on-chip platform. The innovative system will allow sensitive, label-free and rapid analysis of real water samples, outside laboratory boundaries, using a simple and portable device.

    Real-Time Detection of Subclinical Mastitis in Dairy Cows
    The suggested research specifically addresses the most prevalent health problem in dairy cows and major problem for the dairy industry worldwide. Our proposed multidisciplinary approach is based on an innovative combination of new nanomaterials with sensitive, specific and robust capture probes to build an integrated platform, “lab-on-chip”, for label-free biosensing of subclinical mastitis. The system will allow sensitive and rapid detection of “real” milk samples quality and safety, outside laboratory boundaries, using a simple and portable device.

    Triple-Mode Optical Platform for Real Time Screening of Water Bodies Pollutants
    The overall aim of this project is to develop an integrated biosensing platform for “on-site” detection of multiplex pollutants in water bodies. We plan to design and fabricate a sophisticated remote controlled device, based on triple-mode detection (reflectance based) that evaluates in real-time the presence of trace levels of pollutants and the overall safety of water samples. The biosensing platform will combine PSi scaffold (dedicated for bacteria and excessive nutrients contamination) and hybrid AuNPs (designed to react in the presence of metallic constituents) offering unique spectral analysis conducted within a single-device platform.
