The purpose of this study was to develop a reliable molecular procedure for the detection of Escherichia coli in milk.
Robust and expeditious DNA extraction and PCR techniques were evaluated using Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) detection of biotin-labelled amplicons to facilitate optimal detection of E. coli DNA.
It was found that 5 E. coli colony-forming units (cfu) could be detected per PCR reaction using the PCR-ELISA system, equating to a sensitivity of detection of 100 E. coli cfu ml(-1) pasteurized milk.
This approach should facilitate evaluation of milk contamination and enable rapid detection of E. coli mastitis, leading to correct deployment of relevant antibiotic therapy and improved animal welfare.
本研究的目的是开发一种可靠的分子方法用于检测牛奶中的大肠杆菌。
使用酶联免疫吸附测定(ELISA)检测生物素标记的扩增子,对稳健且快速的DNA提取和PCR技术进行了评估,以促进对大肠杆菌DNA的最佳检测。
发现使用PCR-ELISA系统每个PCR反应可检测到5个大肠杆菌菌落形成单位(cfu),相当于检测巴氏杀菌牛奶中100 cfu ml⁻¹大肠杆菌的灵敏度。
这种方法应有助于评估牛奶污染情况,并能够快速检测大肠杆菌性乳腺炎,从而正确部署相关抗生素治疗并改善动物福利。
