An enzyme-free biosensor for sensitive detection of Salmonella using curcumin as signal reporter and click chemistry for signal amplification

In this study, an enzyme-free biosensor was developed for sensitive and specific detection of Salmonella typhimurium (S. typhimurium) using curcumin (CUR) as signal reporter and 1,2,4,5-tetrazine (Tz)-trans-cyclooctene (TCO) click chemistry for signal amplification.
