Abstract

Escherichia coli O157∶H7 is a common foodborne pathogen, which can spread through fecal-oral transmission. Humans can be infected by ingesting foods and water contaminated with E. coli O157∶H7, which can cause various symptoms. Therefore, in order to detect E. coli O157∶H7 in the early stage, AuNPs and AuNFs were prepared as labeled probes by chemical reduction method and mediated growth method, and two immunochromatographic test strips for rapid detection of E. coli O157∶H7 were established. The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of two test strips were tested. The results showed that E. coli O157: H7 in food could be detected within 15 min by both methods. The lowest detection limits of AuNP and AuNFs were 3.2×105 and 3.2×104 CFU/mL, respectively. There was no cross reaction with common foodborne pathogens such as Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella typhimurium, and Enterobacter sakazakii. AuNPs and AuNFs were detected in the samples of artificially contaminated jelly, milk, and beef after 5, 6 and 5 h, respectively, which were not affected by the complex mechanism of food. The results showed that both strips had high sensitivity, specificity, and simple operation, which were suitable for rapid detection of E. coli O157∶H7 on-site. This research provides a new idea for the detection of other bacteria and viruses.
