Abstract
Pathogenic diseases that trigger food safety remain a noteworthy concern due to substantial public health, economic, and social burdens worldwide. It is vital for developing an integrated diagnosis and treatment strategy for bacteria, which could achieve quick detection of pathogenic bacteria and the inhibition of multidrug-resistant bacteria. Herein, we reported an organic molecule (M-3) possessed strong light capture capacity, emerging a low energy gap and ΔEST. Subsequently, M-3 was integrated into a nanostructured system (BTBNPs) with excellent ROS generation, light absorption capability, and photothermal performance. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated by BTBNPs were mainly free radicals from a type I mechanism, and the high photothermal conversion efficiency of BTBNPs was 41.26%. Benefiting from these advantages of BTBNPs, BTBNPs could achieve a ∼99% antibacterial effect for Escherichia coli O157:H7 with 20 μM dosage and 5 min of irradiation. Furthermore, the limit of detection (LoD) of the proposed BTBNPs-LFIA (colorimetric and photothermal modalities) for detecting E. coli O157:H7 was 4105 and 419 CFU mL-1, respectively. Overall, this work is expected to provide a new and sophisticated perspective for integrated diagnosis and treatment systems regarding pathogenic bacteria.
