Abstract

NON-TECHNICAL SUMMARY: Many of the world’s most dangerous bacteria carry hidden warning labels on their surface—special types of molecules called lipopolysaccharides. Detecting this molecular badge is one of the most reliable ways to identify harmful microbes before they have a chance to spread. However, most current technologies for detecting lipopolysaccharides are too slow, too costly, or not sensitive enough to…
