A new electrochemical platform was established during this work for food diagnosis and carrying on tests in situ for the detection of different toxin species. It has the advantage to be easy to use, portable and can help to conduct such tests in a very specific way, instantly and doesn't require expensive equipments or laborious experiments. This entire platform is based on combining an electronic portable system with home manufactured screen printed sensors, and running both cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry techniques for electro analytical experiments. The detection of staphylococcal enterotoxin type B will be carried as an application in order to validate the well performance of this electrochemical workstation.
