dc.description.abstractBackground: S. pneumoniae is widely recognized as a leading cause of respiratory infections worldwide, often resulting in high mortality rates. However, the advent of microfluidic technologies has brought significant advancements, including the simplified, sensitive, cost-effective, and rapid approach to pneumococcal bacteremia detection. In this study, a microfluidic magnetic platform is presented for rapid isolation, and an electrode array is utilized for the electrochemical detection of S. pneumoniae. Aptamer-decorated surfaces were employed for both isolation and detection. For isolation, silica magnetic microparticles were synthesized and decorated with aptamer. Results: Isolation performance was assessed for phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) and blood samples for different concentrations of S. pneumoniae. Electrical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) with fabricated gold interdigitated electrodes (IDEs) decorated with aptamer was implemented for the detection of S. pneumoniae at different bacteria concentrations. The microfluidic platform performed bacteria isolation at comparable isolation efficiency with batch systems but at a much faster rate (isolation took about a minute, and the aptamer-decorated electrode array exhibited a limit of detection (LOD) at 962 CFU/mL and linear range between 104 and 107CFU/mL. Significance: Our method represents a significant advancement compared to previous reports. Our microfluidic platform can efficiently isolate 60 mu L of the bacteria sample within about one minute. The entire process takes about two minutes including the detection step. Furthermore, our method achieves a notable improvement in the detection limit for S. pneumoniae compared to conventional ELISA and magnetic microfluidics ELISA.
