Abstract: | A quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) system detecting Salmonella spp. was developed by an anti-Salmonella antibody immobilization onto one gold surface of a piezoelectric quartz crystal surface with sulfosuccinimidyl 6-[3-(2-pyridyldithio)propionamido]hexanoate (sulfo-LC-SPDP) thiolation. The optimum temperature and pH for the antibody-immobilized sensor were 35 degrees C and 7.2, respectively. The frequency shifts obtained were correlated with the Salmonella concentrations in the range 3.2 x 10(6)-4.8 x 10(8) CFU per ml. The system was quite specific to Salmonella spp. and applicable for repetitive use after a regeneration step employing 1.2 M NaOH. A model sample measurement was done for a market milk spiked with Salmonella typhimurium. |
