The detection of living organisms at very low concentrations is necessary for the early diagnosis of bacterial infections, but it is still challenging as there is a need for signal amplification. Cell culture, nucleic acid amplification, or nanostructure-based signal enhancement are the most common amplification methods, relying on long, tedious, complex, or expensive procedures. [...]

Microbial detection is crucial for the control and prevention of infectious diseases, being one of the leading causes of mortality worldwide. Among the techniques developed for bacterial detection, those based on metabolic indicators are progressively gaining interest due to their simplicity, adaptability, and, most importantly, their capacity to differentiate between live and dead bacteria. [...]

Sepsis is a serious bloodstream infection where the immunity of the host body is compromised, leading to organ failure and death of the patient. In early sepsis, the concentration of bacteria is very low and the time of diagnosis is very critical since mortality increases exponentially with every hour after infection. [...]

In healthcare facilities, environmental microbes are responsible for numerous infections leading to patient's health complications and even death. The detection of the pathogens present on contaminated surfaces is crucial, although not always possible with current microbial detection technologies requiring sample collection and transfer to the laboratory.

5 p, 3.1 MB Smart sensing fabrics for live bacteria detection / Ferrer-Vilanova, Amparo (Institut de Microelectrònica de Barcelona) ; Ivanova, Kristina (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya. Departament d'Enginyeria Química) ; Díaz-González, María (Institut de Microelectrònica de Barcelona) ; Tzanov, Tzanko (Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya. Departament d'Enginyeria Química) ; Muñoz Berbel, Xavier (Institut de Microelectrònica de Barcelona)
A smart textile for live bacteria detection of antimicrobial hospital tissues is here proposed. The capacity to detect viable bacteria is based on the use of Prussian Blue (PB) as electrochromic compound, with a clear reversible change of colour from PB to Prussian White (PW) after reduction from a bacterial metabolism process. [...]
aureus, a full colour change of the textiles was observed. These smart textiles will allow to determine the self-life of the antibacterial compounds as well to improve the control of hospital infections.

Les infeccions nosocomials o infeccions associades a l'atenció sanitaria (IAAS) són aquelles adquirides per pacients hospitalitzats a causa d'equips contaminats, roba de llit o humitat a l'ambient, entre altres fonts d'infecció. [...]
Las infecciones nosocomiales o infecciones asociadas a la atención sanitaria (IAAS) son aquellas adquiridas por pacientes hospitalizados debido a equipos contaminados, ropa de cama o humedad en el ambiente, entre otras fuentes de infección. [...]
Nosocomial or hospital acquired infections are those acquired by hospital patients due to contaminated equipment, bed linens, or humidity in the environment, among others. In order to minimize the number of HAIs, antibacterial fabrics have been developed by incorporating bactericidal nanoparticles into them. [...]
