Journal of Sensor Review : Evaluation of seawater monitoring for the detection of Escherichia coli and Enterococcus faecalis on an integrated biosensor system. Zoi Kotsiri , Apostolos Vantarakis

Abstract: Purpose – This study aims to monitor seawater by determing two biological indicators, Escherichia coli and Enterococcus faecalis. The process of following standard procedures is mainly time-consuming. Thus, there is a demand for a biosensor, an appropriate device for rapid and accurate results that can give information about the microbiological quality of seawater in […]

Journal of Bio-sensors and Renewable sources:Evaluation of Molecular Methods to Be Used in Sensors for The Detection of Bacteria in Water. Kotsiri Zoi,Panteleli Efstratia,Vantarakis Apostolos

Abstract:Waterborne E. coli and E. faecalis remain a major economic problem worldwide because of their significant impact on health and disease. There is a constant need for new diagnostic tools that can detect low bacterial concentrations in a more cost- and timeeffective manner. The development of rapid and simple molecular detection in situ is required […]

Journal of Food Science and Nutrition Research: Advancing quality control of food samples by Next Generation Sequencing compared to culture-dependent techniques. Maria-Eleni Dimitrakopoulou, Chrysoula Kotsalou,Venia Stavrou, Apostolos Vantarakis

Abstract: Food quality and safety had become an increasing issue for quality authorities, food scientists, manufacturers, producers and consumers as well. In the present work, food quality control using bacterial identification isolated from food samples was performed. Greek olives (raw drupes), currants (dry fruits), roe (fish eggs), bacon and “feta” cheese were collected for this […]

Journal of Environmental Sciences: Applications of biosensors for bacteria and virus detection in food and water–A systematic review. Zoi Kotsiri , Jasmina Vidic , Apostolos Vantarakis

Abstract: Biosensors for sensitive and specific detection of foodborne and waterborne pathogens are particularly valued for their portability, usability, relatively low cost, and real-time or near real-time response. Their application is widespread in several domains, including environ- mental monitoring. The main limitation of currently developed biosensors is a lack of sen- sitivity and specificity in […]

Food Reviews International: Does Traceability Lead to Food Authentication? A Systematic Review from A European Perspective. Maria-Eleni Dimitrakopoulou & Apostolos Vantarakis

Food safety and quality concern increasingly both consumers and the entire food sector involved. The European Union has implemented specific legislation for food products in order to monitor food safety and quality, protecting each country’s culture, history and local economy at the same time. Moreover, Europe’s heritage is being enriched, by establishing quality schemes such […]

H Νόσος των Λεγεωνάριων εν μέσω πανδημίας

Η Legionella είναι ένα υδρόβιο βακτήριο, το οποίο αποτελεί τον αιτιολογικό παράγοντα της Νόσου των Λεγεωνάριων, μιας σοβαρής πνευμονικής λοίμωξης. Το βακτήριο εισέρχεται και πολλαπλασιάζεται στα τεχνητά συστήματα νερού υπό κατάλληλες συνθήκες οι οποίες είναι: θερμοκρασία 20-45οC, στάσιμο νερό, ύπαρξη τυφλών άκρων στο σύστημα, εναποθέσεις που υποστηρίζουν την ανάπτυξη βακτηρίων (σκουριά, λάσπη, οργανική ύλη). Τα […]

Το Eργαστήριο Μορ. Βιολογίας Παν/μιου Πατρών παρουσιάζει σημαντική μελέτη για Covid

Από τις 3 Απριλίου, η ομάδα των Ελλήνων ερευνητών δημοσίευσε για πρώτη φορά μελέτη για το πολύ χαμηλό ποσοστό καπνιστών μεταξύ των νοσηλευομένων ασθενών με COVID-19, και αναφέρθηκαν σε πιθανή προστατευτική δράση της νικοτίνης. Τώρα οι επιστήμονες παρουσιάζουν παθοφυσιολογικά δεδομένα σχετικά με τη προσβολή από τον ιό και διαμορφώνουν την υπόθεση ότι το COVID-19 εξελίσσεται […]
