Abstract
Rapid and accurate identification of foodborne pathogens improves public health. Currently employed methods are time-consuming, sensitive to environmental factors, and complex. This study develops a colorimetric sensor for detecting multiple bacteria with one probe using double-enzyme-induced colorimetry. Based on alkaline phosphatase (ALP) in bacteria decomposes L-ascorbic acid 2-magnesium phosphate salt hydrate into ascorbic acid (AA). Manganese dioxide flowers (MnO2 NFs) can oxidize TMB to etch gold nanorods (Au NRs), which can be inhibited by AA reduction to produce rich colors. Bacteria with varying ALP levels can be identified based on color changes and plasmon resonance wavelength signals produced from Au NRs. Furthermore, the conversion of RGB signals to digital signals and the use of linear discriminant analysis (LDA) allowed 99.57% accuracy in identifying multiple bacteria. It can simultaneously identify five foodborne pathogens across diverse environments (shrimp, meat, milk, etc.). This method may be useful for the rapid and simple identification of foodborne illnesses.
