This work describes the development of membrane based on chitosan (CHI), cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs), and glycerol (GLY), and optimization of the formulation for immobilization of monoclonal anti-Shiga toxin 2B antibody (mAnti-stx2B-Ab) for E. coli O157:H7 detection. The effect of CHI deacetylation degree & viscosity, CNCs and GLY concentrations on Anti-stx2B-Ab immobilization efficiency was evaluated. Fractional factorial and Box-Behnken designs were applied to screen the effects of compounds interactions and optimize their concentrations for detection of Anti-stx2B-Ab. The results demonstrated that the use of 0.6 % (w/v) CNCs improved significantly the Anti-stx2B-Ab immobilization and the level of signal detection. The detection limit of Escherichia coli O157:H7 by developed optimized membrane is 1 log CFU/mL. The time needed for detection of E. coli O157:H7 was only 4 h of enrichment compared to 24 h with conventional methods. The developed immobilization support has potential for future pathogen detection in food and biomedical samples.

Article Synopsis
  • This study evaluated how a coating made from nanochitosan and whey protein isolate, combined with summer savory essential oil and oxygen absorber packaging, affects the growth of specific bacteria on rainbow trout fillets stored in the fridge.
  • Results showed that while Listeria monocytogenes initially decreased in all treatment groups, it eventually increased, indicating limited effectiveness of the treatments against this bacterium.
  • In contrast, the combined treatment with the coating, essential oil, and oxygen absorber was most effective in slowing the growth of E. coli and reducing Pseudomonas aeruginosa levels compared to other methods.

To evaluate the typing and clinical application effect based on clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPRs), serotype, and Multilocus Sequence Typing (MLST). The spacers, serotype and sequence type (ST) were obtained with CRISPRsFinder, SeroTypeFinder and MLST. PCR was used to amplify the CRISPRs, and the spacers were used to predict serotype and ST, then comparing with the serotype and ST.

Rapid measurement of waterborne bacterial viability is crucial for ensuring the safety of public health. Herein, we proposed a colorimetric assay for rapid measurement of waterborne bacterial viability based on a difunctional gold nanoprobe (dGNP). This versatile dGNP is composed of bacteria recognizing parts and signal indicating parts, and can generate color signals while recognizing bacterial suspensions of different viabilities.
