Abstract
The accurate identification and characterization of microbiological species is a must that allows us to design engineered pharmacology to tackle down the diversity of diseases derived of them. This paper presents a study about the usage of both classical dynamical and electrodynamics in conjunction to the Feynman’s path integral to describe as well as identify the displacement of bacteria in closed spaces. Our methodology consists in the in the usage of the usage of probability amplitude to investigate the theoretical motility of bacteria can be disturbed through electrical interactions from the fact that them contain ions in their biochemical composition.Our study yields that bacteria might exhibit a pattern of probabilities as function of space and time. It would be advantageous for an engineered nanodevice that would sense them uniquely through electrical interactions.
