Abstract: An AI-integrated portable biosensor system and method are disclosed for rapid screening of food, beverage, and water samples for selected foodborne and waterborne pathogens. The system comprises a sample receiving and conditioning arrangement, an assay cartridge having a pathogen-responsive recognition region, at least one biosensing transducer, an electronic signal acquisition circuit, a processor, memory, and an output interface. Sensor signals are preprocessed and assessed against signal-quality and assay-control criteria before an AI inference model classifies qualified data and generates a confidence-aware screening status. The output may indicate presumptive detection, not detected within assay limits, or an inconclusive, invalid, or retest-required condition. The system may operate locally without continuous network connectivity and may store a traceable record containing assay, calibration, quality-control, and model-version information. Optional communication enables authorised reporting and controlled model updates. The architecture supports different sensor modalities and assay chemistries through compatible cartridges and assay-specific configurations. The device is intended as a portable screening platform, with confirmatory testing performed where required by applicable procedures. Accompanied Drawing [FIGS. 1-2].
