Abstract

Antibody-based biosensors provide sensitive and rapid analytical tools for the detection of a range of pathogens and associated toxins. In this paper, the recent progress in antibody-based biosensors for environmental monitoring is reviewed with particular emphasis on generation and immobilization methods of antibody capture probes. We also describe the current available data on antibody-based detection of pathogens and toxins. Optimal assay design and the strengths and limitations of current sensor technologies for detection of biological agents in environment on site are also discussed.
