NAU-CHINA # BISTRO：Biological Sensing, Tracking, and Reduction of Ochratoxin A # This project focuses on detecting and degrading ochratoxin A (OTA) in red wine, a popular global beverage. OTA is a toxic mycotoxin widely present in wine, posing health risks. By using specific binding and amplification techniques, the detection module enables convenient OTA detection. The degradation module utilizes probiotics to create a functional polymer network with the OTA-degrading enzyme M-CPA, effectively converting OTA into non-toxic compounds. ...
