Background Information
On the literature a very interesting type of biosensor was found: two natural promoters of Escherichia coli (ybiJ and yqjF) were found to be activated in the presence of some aromatic N-based compounds such as 2,4,6-Trinitrotoluene (2,4,6-TNT), 2,4-Dinitrotoluene (2,4-DNT) and 1,3-Dinitrobenzene (1,3-DNB). This was a very attractive case of study to implement our Plug-and-Play biosensor based on electrical current.
