Use of DNA aptamer for sandwich type detection of Listeria monocytogenes.
Analytical Biochemistry 2018 September 16
A single stranded (ss) DNA aptamer, specific to members of Listeria genus, was used to develop a two-site binding sandwich assay for capture and detection of L. monocytogenes. Antibody-immobilized immunomagnetic beads were used to capture L. monocytogenes, followed by their exposure to the aptamer detector. Detection was achieved by amplification of cell-bound aptamers by qPCR. The lower limit of detection for the combined assay was 2.5 CFU L. monocytogenes in 500 μl buffer. This is juxtaposed to a detection limit of 2.4 log10 CFU in 500 μl buffer for immunomagnetic separation coupled with qPCR detection of L. monocytogenes targeting the hly gene. When applied to turkey deli meat, subjected to 24 h of non-selective enrichment, the two-site binding sandwich assay showed positive results at initial inoculum levels of 1-2 log10 CFU per 25 g sample. Because of its lower limit of detection, the assay reported here could be useful for detection of L. monocytogenes in foods and environmental samples.
