<!-- As a proof-of concept for''Cellock Holmes'', we successfully detected the pathogen ''Pseudomonas aeruginosa''. Through the use of our special genetic construct we could significantly enhance the detection speed as compared to a traditional biosensor. | <!-- As a proof-of concept for''Cellock Holmes'', we successfully detected the pathogen ''Pseudomonas aeruginosa''.
