Abstract

Foodborne diseases are critical and become a greater problem over a while. World Health
Organization shows that every year 420 000 die from eating contaminated food. Foodborne diseases are any
illness resulting from pathogenic bacteria, viruses, and contaminated food. It is important to analyze the food
and detect foodborne Bacteria to prevent or minimize diseases and ensure food safety. The designed system
aims to detect the foodborne bacteria present in fruits using rapid detection technique instead of traditional
methods. Many areas will be impacted by this early detection, for example, the economy, health, and agriculture
societies. The system is divided into 3 main parts. First, Extracting DNA from food sample. Then sensing and
signal manipulation part and finally signal analysis and bacteria detection. Electrochemical biosensors used for
bacteria examination. 27 samples including tomato and apple samples were tested. The results show that each
test takes from 12 to 500 seconds not including DNA extraction period with accurate results and cost-friendly.
