Benefits of technology

This patented method allows crookbial cells called Coryneforma coccoides (Croc), or other microorganisms like Bacillus subtilis, producing an enzymatic substance known as alpha glucan lyases, specifically labeled beta gluconolactonase, this modification being able to bind certain sugars such as xylitol molecules on proteins found naturally within these organism's cell walls. These modifications make it difficult for harmful germs from animals to infect humans through ingestion. By measuring changes caused by gene expression during fermentation, researchers have been able to identify potentially dangerous strain(s). Additionally, there was also some evidence showing how long ago they were alive when exposed to different types of chemical agents. Overall, this technique offers technical benefits over existing techniques but at least one advantage due to its simplicity, ease of manufacture, fast response times, and accurate results compared to current technologies.

Problems solved by technology

This patents discusses various ways to detect harmful organisms like crenasiruses by measuring enzymatic activity called alpha glucanases. However, current assays require long periods before they become visible signs indicating deteriorating levels of biosurfactants. There exists a problem where conventional chemical testing requires complex procedures and equipment. Immune sensory tests offer better accuracy than existing diagnoses while DNA probings costly and requiring expertise operation.

Embodiment 1

[0041] Embodiment 1, the preparation method of paper-based detection device

[0042] (1) Selection of paper base treatment method

[0043] Using Whatman No.1 filter paper as the paper-based material, the reproducibility and precision of the paper-based detection devices under three different processing methods of crayons, markers and PVC rubber sheets were compared.

[0044] 1. Crayon treatment

[0045] Use a gray crayon to draw the peripheral pattern on the Whatman No.1 filter paper along the circular part. After the hand-painted pattern, heat treatment is performed to completely soak the filter paper to form a hydrophobic area. The heating conditions are: heating temperature 120° C., heating time 5 minutes. After drying, images of the device were scanned and analyzed.

[0046] 2. Marker

[0047] Use the oil-based pen (mark pen) commonly used in office to draw the pattern on the filter paper, and also copy along the drawn circular curve, then turn the filter paper to the ...

Embodiment 2

[0072] Embodiment 2, the method utilizing paper-based detection device to detect Cronobacter

[0073] (1) Method for detecting Cronobacter using a paper-based detection device

[0074] (1) Activation and cultivation of bacterial strains

[0075] Take Cronobacter sakazakii ATCC 29544 as the standard strain of the experiment, inoculate the bacteria in TSB medium according to the inoculum amount of 2%, cultivate it at 37°C and 200r / min for 12 hours, and then draw the three-section line on the TSA plate. After culturing at 37°C for 12-16 hours, a single colony grew out, and the single colony was picked and inoculated in TSB medium for secondary activation for subsequent experiments.

[0076] (2) Acquisition of specific enzymes of the genus Cronobacter

[0077] In order to obtain the specific enzyme of Cronobacter genus α-glucosidase, it is necessary to crush the bacterial cells. In order to avoid the inactivation of α-glucosidase during ultrasonic crushing, it is necessary to o...

Abstract

The invention discloses a paper-based detection device for detecting cronobacter and application of the paper-based detection device, belonging to the technical field of food safety. In order to solve the problems existing in processes of detecting cronobacter by using a traditional microbiological method and a molecular biological method, the invention provides the paper-based detection device, and the detection principle of the paper-based detection device is that the cronobacter can generate intracellular enzyme alpha-glucosidase after ultrasonication treatment, a specific enzyme-substrate reaction can be carried out on the paper-based detection device modified by the substrate X(alpha)lc, and then the cronobacter can be quickly and visually qualified and quantified on the paper-based detection device. The paper-based detection device disclosed by the invention has the characteristics of simple manufacturing method, low cost, high device sensitivity and the like, and can be used for detecting cronobacter pollution in food and food processing processes in real time, especially cronobacter pollution in production of infant formula milk powder.
