These options are really interesting!
Some questions that I've been thinking about:
- for the ATP-bioluminescence sensor, one problem we may run into is that it may not be specific to pathogenic microbes. If that's the case then it would be too sensitive for use in the hospital if it would alert doctors/nurses at any sign of microbes, even when those microbes are not dangerous.
- the PANTHER sensor is awesome! I wonder how we could actually build something like that in a way that's affordable and can be locally manufacturable, since it utilizes B cells. We should definitely look into how its made to see if its something feasible for us to do.
I'll look into more information about chemical detection.
