A few cells of this bacterium are able to cause young children to be most vulnerable to serious complications. Presence of higher than 1 cfu <em>E. coli</em> O157:H7 in 25 g of food has been considered as a dangerous level. The SHSAW biosensor was fabricated on 64<sup>0</sup> YX LiNbO<sub>3</sub> substrate. Five different interdigital transducers (IDT) parameters (Fig. 1(a)-1(e)) SHSAW were fabricated to compare the mass loading sensitivity before advancing to the bio sensing application: four of them were 32 μm pitch size (with the average of synchronous frequency, f<sub>0</sub> = 144.303 MHz) and one was 12 μm pitch size (with f<sub>0</sub> = 384.948 MHz). All of the four 32 μm pitch sizes were with different combination of delay line length (3.904 mm and 7.296 mm) and aperture size (1.376 mm and 2.464 mm). As for the 12 μm pitch size device, it was with 2.1 mm delay line length and 0.72 mm aperture size. Eventually, 12 μm pitch size device was selected for oligonucleotides detection and its mass loading sensitivity was 1558.04 MHz/ (mg/mm<sup>2</sup>), 4.8-fold higher than the most sensitivity one in 32 μm pitch size).</p><p>Its sensitivity was enhanced by depositing 130 nm thin layer of SiO2 nanostructures with particle size less than 70 nm (Fig. 1(f)-1(g)).

For this work, a specific DNA sequence from <em>E. coli</em> O157:H7 having 22 mers as an amine-terminated probe ssDNA was immobilized on the thin film sensing area through chemical functionalization [(CHO-(CH2)3-CHO) and (APTES; NH2-(CH2)3-Si(OC2H5)3]. The high-performance of sensor was shown with the oligonucleotide target and attained the sensitivity of 0.6439 nM/ 0.1 kHz and detection limit was down to 1.8 femtomolar (1.8 x 10<sup>-15</sup> M).

Calcination temperature is optimized so as to ensure MWCNTs are present in their original form and at the same time highly crystalline ZnO is obtained. The key advantage of this process is that there is no separate functionalization process is required to create functional groups on MWCNTs. Furthermore, the electrochemical activity of MWCNTs embedded ZnO nanowires is much higher as compared to pure ZnO nanowires.
