Abstract
A 96-well plate-based low-field nuclear magnetic resonance (LF-NMR)/colorimetric dual-mode homogeneous immunosensor was developed for the detection of pathogen bacteria, using Vibrio parahaemolyticus (VP) as a detection template. The signal unit MNS@Ab2 is graphene oxide (GO) simultaneously loaded with VP antibody and Fe3O4 nanoparticles. A 96-well plate coated with VP antibody captures the target VP, which then binds the signal unit to form the immunocomplex. After acidolysed, Fe3O4 nanoparticles are transformed into Fe3+ and Fe2+, so the non-homogeneous system is transformed into a homogeneous one. The addition of KMnO4 can not only convert Fe2+ into Fe3+ but also provide Mn2+, improving the detection sensitivity. And, colorimetric analysis can be achieved by the quantitative reduction of KMnO4. Under the optimal experimental conditions, the limit of detection was 60 CFU/mL with good selectivity, stability, precision, accuracy, and consistency, providing a simple and reliable detection platform for pathogenic bacteria in food.
