Abstract
Pathogenic bacteria rapid detection is important to ensure food safety and human health. In this study, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) and adenosine triphosphate bioluminescence (ATP-BL) optical detection platforms were established for evaluating and comparing the performance in the detection of E. coli, B. subtilis and their mixture in yam slices. The results showed that the two techniques significantly reduced the time and cost compared with the traditional culture method. Among them, the detection limits based on SERS were 8.64 CFU/mL, 6.11 CFU/mL and 11.22 CFU/mL for E. coli, B. subtilis and mixed bacteria in actual yam slices, respectively. Accordingly, the detection limits based on ATP-BL were 49.58 CFU/mL, 50.63 CFU/mL and 26.01 CFU/mL, respectively, which demonstrated that both techniques possessed excellent sensitivity and reliability. The results of statistical analysis by t-tests showed that there was no significant difference (P > 0.05) between the two methods and the plate culture method, and the recovery rates were both between 85 %–115 %. In addition, compared to the constructed ATP-BL platform, the SERS method had higher stability, lower detection limit, and shorter time consumption.
期刊介绍:
Food and Chemical Toxicology (FCT), an internationally renowned journal, that publishes original research articles and reviews on toxic effects, in animals and humans, of natural or synthetic chemicals occurring in the human environment with particular emphasis on food, drugs, and chemicals, including agricultural and industrial safety, and consumer product safety. Areas such as safety evaluation of novel foods and ingredients, biotechnologically-derived products, and nanomaterials are included in the scope of the journal. FCT also encourages submission of papers on inter-relationships between nutrition and toxicology and on in vitro techniques, particularly those fostering the 3 Rs.
The principal aim of the journal is to publish high impact, scholarly work and to serve as a multidisciplinary forum for research in toxicology. Papers submitted will be judged on the basis of scientific originality and contribution to the field, quality and subject matter. Studies should address at least one of the following:
-Adverse physiological/biochemical, or pathological changes induced by specific defined substances
-New techniques for assessing potential toxicity, including molecular biology
-Mechanisms underlying toxic phenomena
-Toxicological examinations of specific chemicals or consumer products, both those showing adverse effects and those demonstrating safety, that meet current standards of scientific acceptability.
Authors must clearly and briefly identify what novel toxic effect (s) or toxic mechanism (s) of the chemical are being reported and what their significance is in the abstract. Furthermore, sufficient doses should be included in order to provide information on NOAEL/LOAEL values.
