Abstract

AbstractWe report here the concept of a magnetically controlled extraction of hydrophilic bioreceptors into polymeric membranes for bioassays. The potentiometric assay relies on the intrinsic charges of an antimicrobial peptide and its unique recognition abilities, which can eliminate the probe labeling and indicator addition. The target binding event could effectively prevent the extraction of the peptide into the polymeric membrane doped with an ion exchanger, thus resulting in a potential change. The potentiometric response properties of the peptide assembled on magnetic beads can be dynamically controlled and modulated by applying a magnetic field. Staphylococcus aureus, as a model of food‐borne pathogens, was measured at levels down to 10 CFU mL−1. Based on this sensing strategy, a potentiometric array was developed for the pattern recognition of bacteria. The proposed general platform can be used for potentiometric biosensing using other hydrophilic bioreceptors.
