Photonic Biosensor Assays to Detect and Distinguish Subspecies of Francisella tularensis

The application of photonic biosensor assays to diagnose the category-A select agent Francisella tularensis was investigated. Both interferometric and long period fiber grating sensing structures were successfully demonstrated; both these sensors are capable of detecting the optical changes induced...
