Abstract

Pathogen screening is an important step in preventing foodborne diseases. In this study, a hybrid nanozyme, metal organic framework decorated with palladium (Pd) and platinum (Pt) (MIL-88@Pd/Pt), was innovatively synthesized and used with immune magnetic nanobeads (MNBs) for sensitive biosensing of Salmonella. First, immune MIL-88@Pd/Pt nanozymes and immune MNBs were mixed with target pathogens in a large-volume sample, resulting in effective isolation and specific label of target pathogens to form nanobead-Salmonella-nanozyme conjugates. Then, these conjugates were used to catalyze H2O2-TMB, and its color was changed from colorless to blue. Finally, catalysate absorption was measured to determine pathogen concentration. This colorimetric immunoassay could determine Salmonella typhimurium from 4 × 101 to 4 × 105 CFU/mL in 60 min with a detection limit of 32 CFU/mL.
