  • Use of biosensors to diagnose plant diseases
    Publication number: 20030104390
    Abstract: The invention relates to a biosensor for the diagnosis of plant diseases, which is suitable for recognising plant diseases, as well as its use in the course of this process, as well as a sensor platform as a component of a biosensor for the diagnosis of plant diseases, whereby the biosensor as an analytical measuring unit consists of the sensor platform according to the invention, which may be modified and on which immobilised biochemical recognition elements are immobilised, whilst in close contact with an appropriate transducer arrangement. The said biochemical recognition elements are structures which are specific for the plant pathogens to be evaluated, and therefore allow individual detection of these plant pathogens to be carried out in the course of the diagnostic process according to the invention.
