Abstract

A two-dimensional nanoparticle-single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) array has been assembled for the detection of bacterial species using machine-learning (ML) algorithms. Out of 60 unknowns prepared from bacterial lysates, 54 unknowns were predicted correctly. Furthermore, the nanosensor array, supported by ML algorithms, was able to distinguish wild-type from its mutant by a single gene difference. In addition, the nanosensor array was able to distinguish untreated wild-type from those treated with antimicrobial drugs. This work demonstrates the potential of nanoparticle-ssDNA arrays and ML algorithms for the discrimination and identification of complex biological matrixes.
