Methods, systems and devices for detecting the presence of a pathogen, for example, a virus (e.g., SARS-COV-2), or its molecular components, in health care-related samples and/or environmental samples are disclosed. An example system for improving detection of a pathogen includes biosensor device comprising a detection chip and at least one probe that specifically recognizes a pathogen, where the detection chip comprises a graphene field-effect transistor (FET) chip and the probe, which comprises an aptamer, specifically binds to a DNA, RNA, or protein associated with the pathogen.
