Abstract:
A rapid detection method of Pseudomonas aeruginosa based on magnetic separation and chemiluminescence was developed in this paper. Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) were prepared by solvothermal method with PEG-4000 as a surfactant, and then were modified. The prepared MNPs present a uniform morphology and good dispersion. The sizes of MNPs can be controlled by adjusting the dosage of FeCl3 x 6H2O. The obtained particles were characterized with Scanning electron microscope (SEM), Transmission electronic microscopy (TEM) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR). The biotin-dUTP-labeled DNA fragments of gyrB gene were amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and Pseudomonas aeruginosa was successfully detected with detection limit as low as 7.5 fM of gyrB fragments.
