A combination of an immuno-affinity enrichment strategy and sensitive amperometric read-out was implemented in a point-of-care platform intended for bacterial infection analysis. Bacterial cells, selectively captured and enriched from complex matrices through immuno-affinity, were detected by amperometric monitoring of the redox state of metabolic activity indicators, providing species identification and viable-cell quantification. The method was successfully employed for the diagnosis of bacterial infections including antimicrobial susceptibility testing with only several hours of total working time.
