Abstract
Listeria monocytogenes (L. monocytogenes), a typical foodborne pathogen, poses a serious threat to public health safety. This stimulates to develop a point-of-care testing (POCT) method to achieve rapid, sensitive detection of L. monocytogenes. In this study, polyethylene glycol (PEG) mediated ampicillin functionalized magnetic beads (Amp-PEG-MBs) was prepared successfully and it achieved high efficiency (>90%) and rapid (5 min) capture for L. monocytogenes at room temperature. The innovative combination of antibody (Ab), glucose oxidase (GOD) and graphene oxide (GO) prepared Ab@GO@GOD for the specific recognition of L. monocytogenes. Finally, Amp-PEG-MBs and Ab@GO@GOD were successfully assembled into Amp-PEG-MBs@L. monocytogenes-Ab@GO@GOD sandwich structure which could catalyze the glucose, and the final detection results were recorded by a blood glucose meter (BGM). Magnetic separation (MS) combined with enzyme-catalyzed sensor (MS-Ab@GO@GOD-BGM) was successfully established to achieve the detection of L. monocytogenes in artificially contaminated juice within 66 min with the limit of detection was 101 CFU/mL. This sensor has potential for other pathogens detection by modifying specific antibodies.
