In this study, we significantly improved the antibody's specificity and affinity by using a mixture of fMet-Xaa-Cys tripeptides (Xaa, any of the 20 amino acids) as the immunogen. This newly optimized anti-fMet antibody is a powerful, cost-effective tool for detecting fMet-bearing proteins across species.

However, the production of TS by natural dripping of gelling solution can be labor intensive, time consuming and difficult to maintain consistent product quality. Here we present a semi-automated system for TS production.

This method, known as barcoding-PCR, has become widespread, although the primer pair used can amplify non-<i>Blastocystis</i> sequences, which can result in false positives. Barcoding-PCR is most effective with DNA extracted from <i>Blastocystis</i> cultures, limiting its sensitivity when used directly with stool samples. As a result, barcoding-PCR can sometimes yield negative results for stool samples confirmed as <i>Blastocystis</i>-positive by microscopy. To improve subtyping from stool-derived DNA, we developed a Semi-Nested barcode PCR that amplifies the barcoding region in a second reaction. Our study shows that this Semi-Nested approach outperforms classical barcoding-PCR, detecting <i>Blastocystis</i> more reliably from stool samples with stronger gel signals and no false positives. This was confirmed by near-complete concordance (68/70 samples) with the Santin-PCR coupled to Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) as reference standard for <i>Blastocystis</i> subtyping. Of particular interest, one amplicon matched the only previous report of ST35, marking this as the second global detection of ST35 and the first in Colombia. Overall, Semi-Nested barcoded PCR offers a more robust and sensitive alternative compared to classical barcoding-PCR for subtyping <i>Blastocystis</i> directly from stool samples.</p>","PeriodicalId":8945,"journal":{"name":"BioTechniques","volume":" ","pages":"581-591"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142891815","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
