Detection of Bacteria Using Toehold Switches

Detection of Bacteria Using Toehold Switches

Toehold switches, as an engineered RNA element, can manipulate the translation of reporter genes. Based on this feature, toehold switches have been widely used in bacterial assays. At CD BioSciences, the toehold switches technology platform has been established and has been applied to a variety of bacterial assays. The following is a brief description of the application of toehold switches in the detection of C. difficile, E. coli, Bifidobacterium, and Bacteroides fragilis.

Detection of Clostridium difficile Using Toehold Switches

Detection of Clostridium difficile Using Toehold Switches

When the human intestinal homeostasis is altered by antibiotic stimulation, Clostridium difficile can cause diseases such as antibiotic-associated diarrhea and pseudomembranous colitis, which seriously endanger human health. Toehold switches have been demonstrated for the detection of C. difficile. CD BioSciences uses the toehold switches technology platform to provide biosensors development services and detection services for C. difficile for scholars engaged in C.

Detection of Escherichia coli Using Toehold Switches

Detection of Escherichia coli Using Toehold Switches

Escherichia coli is an opportunistic pathogen, which can cause infection of various organs and tissues such as the gastrointestinal tract and urinary tract in humans and various animals. Toehold switches have been confirmed to be used in the detection of E. coli. CD BioSciences uses the toehold switches technology platform to provide biosensors development services and detection services for E. coli for scholars engaged in E. coli-related research.

Detection of Bifidobacterium longum Using Toehold Switches

Detection of Bifidobacterium longum Using Toehold Switches

Bifidobacterium longum is an anaerobic, gram-positive bacteria. As beneficial microorganisms in the human gut, B. longum has various abilities such as resisting the growth of harmful bacteria, enhancing immunity, and anti-tumor. CD BioSciences uses the toehold switches technology platform to provide B. longum-specific biosensor development services and detection services for scholars engaged in B. longum-related research.

Detection of Bacteroides fragilis Using Toehold Switches

Detection of Bacteroides fragilis Using Toehold Switches

Bacteroides fragilis is an obligately anaerobic, Gram-negative bacterium. The probiotic B. fragilis can help maintain the balance of the human immune system. It can be used in various fields such as bioengineering and food. It has great potential as an alternative to antibiotics. CD BioSciences uses toehold switches technology platform to provide B. fragilis-specific biosensors development services and detection services for scholars engaged in B. fragilis related research

CD BioSciences has long focused on the application research of toehold switches. We can apply toehold switches to the detection of a variety of bacteria and provide you with corresponding services. If you are interested in our service based on toehold switches, please feel free to contact us.
