    Abstract: A resonant sensor is embedded within or applied to a component of a medical diagnostic apparatus. The resonant sensor is formed from a composite material. The resonant sensor undergoes a change of permittivity and/or change in permeability due to metabolic activity of a microorganism that is involved in the medical diagnostic and proximal to the resonant sensor. The medical diagnostic apparatus may be a blood culture bottle that is configured to contain a blood culture medium. The resonant sensor may be embedded in or applied to the exterior or interior wall of the blood culture bottle. The resonant sensor may undergo a change in permittivity and/or a change in permeability due to production of carbon dioxide by the microorganism. The composite material may comprise a carbonaceous material such as graphene.
