A combined calorimetric gas- and spore-based biosensor array is presented in this work to monitor and evaluate the sterilization efficacy of gaseous hydrogen peroxide in aseptic filling machines. H2O2 has been successfully measured under industrial conditions. Furthermore, the effect of H2O2 on three different spore strains namely, Bacillus atrophaeus, Bacillus subtilis and Geobacillus stearothermophilus has been investigated by means of SEM, AFM and impedimetric measurements. In addition, the sterilization efficacy of a spore-based biosensor and the functioning principle are addressed and discussed: the sensor array is convenient to be used in aseptic food industry to guarantee sterile packages.
