Description of the research topic:
The first task of the research plan is the development of novel selective ion sensors and their adaptation to eventually enable their use as wearable sensors. This includes the development of novel solid contact ion-selective electrodes and chemically modified nanopore-based ion sensors for organic and inorganic ions as well as polyions. The sensors will be applied for sensing of ions in human sweat as a cost effective mean to assess the hydration level and various metabolic conditions. Furthermore, specially designed ion- selective nanosensors will
be also tested for ion measurements in small confinements, i.e. single cells as well as for selective separation of ions. The second task of the project is to further progress the nanopore sensing for the selective detection
of single viruses in an approach to fully address the discrimination of intact viruses, which are involved in the virus pathogenesis. This work will use as foundation the theoretical and methodological background we developed for nanoparticle counting and sizing in terms of resistive pulse sensing and fluorescent nanoparticle tracking analysis.
