A fluorescent biosensor for Salmonella typhimurium detection based on aptamer recognition, alendronic acid, upconversion nanoparticles, and gold nanoparticles was developed. The biosensor showed a linear correlation between the concentration of S. typhimurium and fluorescent intensity, with a detection limit of 36 CFU mL(-1). The method was successfully used for detecting the pathogen in food samples.
A simple and quick-response fluorescent biosensor for Salmonella typhimurium detection based on the recognition of an aptamer coupled with alendronic acid (ADA)@upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs) and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) has been developed. Briefly, the aptamer can adsorb on the surfaces of the AuNPs via a Au-S bond to protect the AuNPs from aggregation in highly concentrated salt solution. Then, the AuNPs and UCNPs are linked by electrostatic adsorption, which leads to a decrease in the fluorescence peak at 541 nm based on fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between the UCNPs and AuNPs. In the presence of Salmonella typhimurium, the Au-S bond was broken, and the fluorescence intensity at 541 nm was recovered. Under optimal conditions, the correlation between the concentration of S. typhimurium and the intensity of the fluorescent biosensor signals was observed to be linear within the range of 1.16 x 10(2) to 1.16 x 10(7) CFU mL(-1) (R-2 = 0.9912), and the detection limit of the developed biosensor was observed to be 36 CFU mL(-1). Furthermore, the proposed method was successfully used to detect the Salmonella typhimurium pathogen in food samples with satisfactory results.
