Abstract

Vibrio parahaemolyticus (V. parahaemolyticus) is the causative agent for acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND) of shrimp, and it is also a common seafood-borne pathogen for humans. Rapid and accurate identification of V. parahaemolyticus is helpful to diagnose the AHPND and ensure food safety. Common detection methods suffer the deficiency of time-consuming and complexed operation. Based on the increased development of aptamer and our previous study, a new detection assay of V. parahaemolyticus was introduced, in which theaptamer combined with magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) was therecognizer, hybridization chain reaction (HCR) was thesignal amplifier, and lateral flow nucleotide biosensor (LFNB) was thesignal exporter. The assay possessed high specificity of distinguishing the target with other bacteria, and the calculated limit of detection was 2.6 × 103 cells. Furthermore, the whole process just needs 67min, free of thermocycle instruments and signal readout instruments, which means it is suitable for low-resource laboratories or districts.
