Description:About the Seminar:\n\nCarbon has become a popular material for 
 electrochemical sensors due to its wide availability\, low cost\, and exce
 llent electrochemical properties. More importantly\, carbon electrodes can
  take on several different forms\, from robust thermoplastic electrodes to
  flexible stencil-printed electrodes. This allows carbon-based electrodes 
 to be used in variety of different applications and environments such as p
 athogen detection. For pathogen detection\, a key component of analysis is
  quantification of the target analyte. An electrochemical approach allows 
 for quantitative response\, rather than a qualitative one\, enabling the e
 nd user to determine elements such as infectivity or quantity. This talk w
 ill focus on the development of electrochemical immunosensors using carbon
 -based electrodes for both SARS-CoV-2 and Escherichia coli (E. coli). Broa
 dly\, discussion will focus on the successful development of a SARS-CoV-2 
 assay\, and its performance against clinical samples\, variants\, and inte
 rferents. Preliminary assay development and the obstacles associated with 
 such will be detailed for the detection of E. coli. 4:00 pm
