Novel multiplex PCR approaches for the simultaneous detection of human pathogens: Escherichia coli 0157:H7 and Listeria monocytogenes

Escherichia coli 0157:H7 and Listeria monocytogenes are the two most important food-borne human pathogens. To develop a single, rapid and sensitive PCR based test for simultaneous detection of both the organisms, fliCh7 and iap gene specific primers were used respectively for E. coli 0157:H7 and L. monocytogenes. Initially, with equal quantities of purified genomic DNAs of these organisms a multiplex PCR reaction was standardized to yield uniform amplification of both targets. Although, this assay detected E. coli 0157:H7 with high sensitivity, it failed to pick up L. monocytogenes after several hours of enrichment in broth medium initially spiked with equal numbers of live cells. This was found to be due to unequal growth of these organisms leading to disparity in the amount of template DNAs represented in the DNA preparation applied for conventional multiplex PCR amplification. To circumvent this, we have developed a modified method of enrichment and harvesting leading to highly sensitive and rapid single reaction PCR detection of both pathogens. We have also successfully developed two novel multiplex PCR formats for the generation of uniform PCR signals. Some of these methods might find broader application for the simultaneous detection of different combinations of multiple pathogens.     

Universal primer PCR with DGGE for rapid detection of bacterial pathogens

A universal primer PCR (UPPCR) combined with denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) was evaluated as a method permitting the rapid detection of pathogens. The results show that this method is efficient at amplifying the conserved regions of bacterial 16S rRNA genes with universal primers and can detect causative bacterial pathogens rapidly. Six species of bacteria from fisheries (Pseudomonas fluorescens, Vibrio anguillarum, Aeromonas hydrophila, Vibrio fluvialis, Providencia rettgeri and Aeromonas sobria) were examined. Our results indicate that the approach we undertook can be adopted not only for axenic bacterial populations but also for mixed communities as well. Furthermore, we were able to achieve the rapid detection of multiple bacteria a single in sample. In addition, UPPCR-DGGE was shown to be better than previously reported UPPCR-single-stranded conformation polymorphism (SSCP)-based methods for the rapid detection of bacterial pathogens.     

Rapid and reliable detection of 11 food-borne pathogens using thin-film biosensor chips

Traditional methods for identifying food-borne pathogens are time-consuming and laborious, so it is necessary to develop innovative methods for the rapid identification of food-borne pathogens. Here, we report the development of silicon-based optical thin-film biosensor chips for sensitive detection of 11 food-borne pathogens. Briefly, aldehyde-labeled probes were arrayed and covalently attached to a hydrazine-derivatized chip surface, and then, biotinylated polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplicons were hybridized with the probes. After washing and brief incubation with an antibiotin immunoglobulin G–horseradish peroxidase conjugate and a precipitable horseradish peroxidase substrate, biotinylated chains bound to the probes were visualized as a color change on the chip surface (gold to blue/purple). Highly sensitive and accurate examination of PCR fragment targets can be completed within 30 min. This assay is extremely robust, sensitive, specific, and economical and can be adapted to different throughputs. Thus, a rapid, sensitive, and reliable technique for detecting 11 food-borne pathogens was successfully developed.     

Response surface methodology to design a selective co-enrichment broth of Escherichia coli, Salmonella spp. and Staphylococcus aureus for simultaneous detection by multiplex PCR

Escherichia coli, Salmonella spp. and Staphylococcus aureus are frequent co-visitors of contaminated foods to cause food-borne diseases. To achieve rapid detection of three organisms by multiplex PCR, a selective co-enrichment broth was considered to design using response surface methodology (RSM) in this work. NaCl, LiCl and KSCN as selective bacterial inhibitors were selected to optimize their concentrations for a matched composition of bacterial biomass with uniform amplification of three targets. Central composite design was employed to collect the data and fit the responses. Three quadratic polynomial models were derived by computer simulation. A statistical analysis was carried out to explore the effects of the variables on the composition of bacterial biomass and PCR amplification yields. In the end, a novel broth (ESS-3 broth) of NaCl 1.60%, LiCl 0.70%, KSCN 0.10% was formulated to allow co-enrichment of the target pathogens and suppress growth of some non-target pathogens. The simultaneous detection of E. coli, Salmonella spp. and S. aureus was developed on a rapid, convenient and sensitive method consisting of selective co-enrichment in ESS-3 broth, DNA extraction with the boiling method and robust test by multiplex PCR. Our work provided broader application of RSM for the simultaneous detection of other combinations of multiple pathogens.     

Diagnostic real-time PCR assays for the detection of emetic Bacillus cereus strains in foods and recent food-borne outbreaks

Cereulide-producing Bacillus cereus can cause an emetic type of food-borne disease that mimics the symptoms provoked by Staphylococcus aureus. Based on the recently discovered genetic background for cereulide formation, a novel 5' nuclease (TaqMan) real-time PCR assay was developed to provide a rapid and sensitive method for the specific detection of emetic B. cereus in food. The TaqMan assay includes an internal amplification control and primers and a probe designed to target a highly specific part of the cereulide synthetase genes. Additionally, a specific SYBR green I assay was developed and extended to create a duplex SYBR green I assay for the one-step identification and discrimination of the two emesis-causing food pathogens B. cereus and S. aureus. The inclusivity and exclusivity of the assay were assessed using a panel of 100 strains, including 23 emetic B. cereus and 14 S. aureus strains. Different methods for DNA isolation from artificially contaminated foods were evaluated, and established real-time assays were used to analyze two recent emetic food poisonings in southern Germany. One of the food-borne outbreaks included 17 children visiting a day care center who vomited after consuming a reheated rice dish, collapsed, and were hospitalized; the other case concerned a single food-poisoning incident occurring after consumption of cauliflower. Within 2 h, the etiological agent of these food poisonings was identified as emetic B. cereus by using the real-time PCR assay.

Development and application of an oligonucleotide microarray for the detection of food-borne bacterial pathogens

The rapid and accurate detection and identification of food-borne pathogenic bacteria is critical for food safety. In this paper, we describe a rapid (<4 h) high-throughput detection and identification system that uses universal polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primers to amplify a variable region of bacterial the 16S rRNA gene, followed by reverse hybridization of the products to species-specific oligonucleotide probes on a chip. This procedure was successful in discriminating 204 strains of bacteria from pure culture belonging to 13 genera of bacteria. When this method was applied directly to 115 strains of bacteria isolated from foods, 112/115 (97.4%) were correctly identified; two strains were indistinguishable due to weak signal, while one failed to produce a PCR product. The array was used to detect and successfully identify two strains of bacteria from food poisoning outbreak samples, giving results through hybridization that were identical to those obtained by traditional methods. The sensitivity of the microarray assay was 10² CFU of bacteria. Thus, the oligonucleotide microarray is a powerful tool for the detection and identification of pathogens from foods.
