Valery Patsekin develops optical and spectroscopic instruments—such as light-scattering sensors, laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy systems, and spectral flow cytometry tools—for rapidly identifying and characterizing bacteria and other microorganisms. This work supports applications in food safety testing, antibiotic-resistance detection, and clinical microbiology by enabling faster, often portable, alternatives to traditional lab-based identification methods.
