Photoelectrochemical sensor for the detection of Escherichia coli O157:H7 based on TPA-NO2 and dual-functional polythiophene films

The detection of Escherichia coli (E. coli) is of great significance for the environment and human health. Herein, a photoelectrochemical (PEC) detection strategy based on molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) was proposed for the sensitive detection of E. coli. 4,4',4″-Trinitrotriphenylamine (TPA-NO
