Rapid point of care tests for bacterial infection diagnosis are of great importance to reduce the misuse of antibiotics and burden of antimicrobial resistance. Here, we have successfully combined a new class of non-biological binder molecules with electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS)-based sensor detection for direct, label-free detection of Gram-positive bacteria making use of the specific coil-to-globule conformation change of the vancomycin-modified highly branched polymers immobilized on the surface of gold screen-printed electrodes upon binding to Gram-positive bacteria. Staphylococcus carnosus was detected after just 20 min incubation of the sample solution with the polymer-functionalized electrodes. The polymer conformation change was quantified with two simple 1 min EIS tests before and after incubation with the sample. Tests revealed a concentration dependent signal change within an OD600 range of Staphylococcus carnosus from 0.002 to 0.1 and a clear discrimination between Gram-positive Staphylococcus carnosus and Gram-negative Escherichia coli bacteria. This exhibits a clear advancement in terms of simplified test complexity compared to existing bacteria detection tests. In addition, the polymer-functionalized electrodes showed good storage and operational stability.

AbstractIn view of the problem of large earthquake displacement in the use of the original concrete engineering shear wall reinforcement method, the energy dissipation and damping structure is used to design the energy dissipation and damping structure reinforcement method in the concrete engineering shear wall. According to the design process of the set method, the anti-vibration coefficient of the concrete shear wall is tested. The energy dissipation structure is used to construct a shear damping wall, and the damper is added to the original shear wall. The concrete shear wall is strengthened by sticking steel technology. So far, the design of shear wall reinforcement method based on the energy dissipation structure has been completed. Compared with the original method, the displacement distance of this method is lower than that of the original method. In conclusion, the effect of shear wall reinforcement method based on the energy dissipation structure is better than that of the original method.
