Electrode system consisting buy strattera of basic plane pyrolytic graphite (BPG) electrode and porous nitrocellulose membrane filters to trap bacteria, which are used to detect bacteria in urine. Peak current of cyclic voltammogram increases with initial concentration of cell
Escherichia coli in urine. Urine containing from 5 10 >> << measured with this system. Susceptibility of bacteria to various antibiotics was determined also with peak current. The minimum inhibitory concentration values obtained by electrochemical are in good agreement with the results obtained in the traditional way. .
