Abstract

This study presents a microfluidic approach for the rapid analysis of bacterial chemotaxis in response to chemical gradients. The diffusional mixing of laminar flow continuously generates a stable chemical gradient in a microfluidic device. For the proof of concept, we have investigated the effects of the attractant peptone and repellent trichloroethylene (TCE) on chemotactic responses of wild type Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 and chemotactic mutant PC4. The microfluidic method clearly demonstrates that P. aeruginosa PAO1 is attracted to peptone and repelled from TCE, whereas PC4 shows non-chemotactic behavior. In addition, the analysis of PAO1 chemotaxis on 20 amino acids revealed the effective concentration range of each amino acid as a chemoeffector. Not only does the microfluidic approach facilitate the quantitative information of chemotaxis, which gives an insight into understanding the mechanism of P. aeruginosa motility, but it also provides a useful tool for the rapid monitoring of bacterial chemotaxis in a reproducible experimental manner.

摘要

本研究提出了一种用于快速分析细菌对化学梯度响应的趋化性的微流控方法。层流的扩散混合在微流控装置中连续产生稳定的化学梯度。为了验证这一概念,我们研究了趋化剂蛋白胨和斥性三氯乙烯(TCE)对野生型铜绿假单胞菌 PAO1 和趋化突变体 PC4 的趋化反应的影响。微流控方法清楚地表明,铜绿假单胞菌 PAO1 被蛋白胨吸引,被 TCE 排斥,而 PC4 则表现出非趋化行为。此外,对 20 种氨基酸的 PAO1 趋化性分析揭示了每种氨基酸作为化学引诱剂的有效浓度范围。微流控方法不仅促进了趋化性的定量信息,从而深入了解铜绿假单胞菌运动的机制,而且还为以可重复的实验方式快速监测细菌趋化性提供了有用的工具。
