Abstract:We herein report the development of an agarose-gel-immobilized recombinant bacterial biosensor simple system for the field monitoring of phenolic compounds. Escherichia coli cells harboring the pLZCapR plasmid, which was previously designed to express the β-galactosidase reporter gene in the presence of phenolic compounds, were co-immobilized with a substrate [chlorophenol red β-galactopyranoside (CPRG) in agarose gel, and dispensed to the wells of a 96-well plate. Field samples were added to the wells and col… Show more
