Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of microbiology and genetics, and in particular relates to a primer set for detecting drug-resistant enzyme genes of bacterial strains, a typing detection method and a kit. Background Art
[0002] In the fields of microbiology and genetics, enzyme typing is a crucial technology. It not only determines the genetic variation and relationship of bacterial strains, but also is a key way to identify bacterial resistance to specific antibiotics. Traditional enzyme typing methods involve multiple steps, including DNA extraction, amplification, and analysis.
[0003] Traditional DNA extraction methods, such as the phenol-chloroform method and column purification, while widely used, suffer from drawbacks such as complexity, time-consuming procedures, and the potential for sample contamination. In contrast, the magnetic bead method has become a mainstream technology for nucleic acid extraction due to its high efficiency, high purity, and wide applicability. The magnetic bead method leverages the unique affinity of magnetic beads for nucleic acids, using magnetic separation technology to rapidly and efficiently extract nucleic acids, greatly simplifying experimental procedures and improving nucleic acid quality.
[0004] The subsequent PCR method is the gold standard technology for detecting enzyme genotyping. It is widely used for gene amplification due to its high specificity and sensitivity. However, the traditional PCR method requires complex operating procedures, is easily interfered by environmental pollutants, and is relatively expensive. With the continuous advancement of technology, new developments in modern biotechnology and molecular biology have provided new directions for the improvement of PCR methods. For example, in terms of primer design, precise bioinformatics tools can be used to predict and select optimal primers to improve the specificity and efficiency of PCR reactions. At the same time, the application of whole-genome sequencing technology can provide comprehensive genetic information for the accurate identification of enzyme genes. The combination of high-throughput sample processing platforms and high-fidelity PCR technology can speed up sample processing, reduce the risk of cross-contamination, and improve the accuracy of PCR amplification.
[0005] By combining efficient genomic DNA extraction techniques with novel primer design strategies, experimental cycles can be significantly shortened, costs reduced, and data reliability and accuracy improved. These optimized enzymatic genotyping methods are not only of great significance in bacteriological research but are also expected to play a significant role in personalized medicine, antibiotic development, and clinical medication guidance. Therefore, continuously optimizing and refining genotyping methods, combined with the latest biotechnology advances, will bring broader prospects and opportunities to research and applications in microbiology and genetics.

[0068] Example 1
[0069] 1. Screening of Guanidine Hydrochloride Content
[0070] (1) Materials:
[0071] Clinical strains: Escherichia coli, Acinetobacter baumannii and Enterobacter cloacae were collected from Nanfang Hospital of Southern Medical University.
[0072] Bacterial suspension: composed of Tris-HCl at a final concentration of 10 mmol / L and EDTA at a final concentration of 1 mmol / L.
[0073] Bacterial lysis solution: composed of a final concentration of 0.1 wt% SDS, a final concentration of 0.5 wt% Triton-100 and a final concentration of 0.5 wt% β-mercaptoethanol, with a pH of 4-7.
[0074] Adsorption buffer: composed of guanidine hydrochloride with a final concentration of 4-8 mol / L, sodium chloride with a final concentration of 800 mmol / L, sodium citrate with a final concentration of 200 mmol / L, EDTA with a final concentration of 1 mmol / L, and isopropanol with a final concentration of 75 wt%.
[0075] Washing liquid: 70wt% ethanol solution.
[0076] Elution buffer: composed of Tris-HCl at a final concentration of 10 mmol / L and EDTA at a final concentration of 1 mmol / L.
[0077] Sterile water or TE buffer.
[0078] (2) Strain culture: Clinical strains collected from Nanfang Hospital of Southern Medical University, including Escherichia coli, Acinetobacter baumannii and Enterobacter cloacae. Weigh 33g of nutrient agar medium solid powder, dissolve it in 1L of ultrapure water, sterilize it at 121℃ for 15min, and prepare nutrient agar medium for later use. Pipette 30μL of the frozen solution and inoculate it on the nutrient agar slant. Incubate it at 37℃ for 16-24h to complete activation. Inoculate the clinical strains into a suitable culture medium and culture it until the logarithmic growth phase (about 16-18h).
[0079] (3) Bacteria collection: Collect the bacteria, centrifuge at 10,000 rpm for 5 min, discard the supernatant, and evenly disperse the bacteria at the bottom of the centrifuge tube with bacterial suspension.
[0080] (4) Lysis: Add 600 μL of lysis buffer to resuspend the cells, mix thoroughly, and incubate at 65°C for 30 min.
[0081] (5) Magnetic bead adsorption: Add 200 μL of magnetic bead adsorption buffer, mix well, and incubate at room temperature for 10 min.
[0082] (6) Washing: Wash the beads with 70% ethanol, centrifuge at 10,000 rpm for 30 seconds, and discard the supernatant. Repeat this step twice.
[0083] (7) Elution: Add 100 μL of elution buffer to elute the DNA on the magnetic beads, centrifuge at 10,000 rpm for 1 min, and collect the supernatant, which is the purified strain genomic DNA.
[0084] The yield and purity of the DNA purified using this method are shown in the following table:
[0085] Table 1
[0086]
[0087] The results are shown in Table 1. The adsorption buffer contained 4 mol / L guanidine hydrochloride, which resulted in high DNA concentration and purity, without contamination by proteins, etc. As the guanidine hydrochloride concentration increased, both the DNA concentration and purity values decreased. Under normal circumstances, a moderate guanidine hydrochloride concentration can improve the binding efficiency of DNA to magnetic beads. However, an increase in the guanidine hydrochloride concentration may cause an increase in the number of proteins and other organic molecules nonspecifically adsorbed on the surface of the magnetic beads. These nonspecifically bound impurities may not be completely removed in the subsequent washing steps, resulting in a decrease in the purity of the obtained DNA.
[0088] 2. Screening of pH of bacterial lysate
[0089] (1) Materials:
[0090] Clinical strains: collected from Nanfang Hospital of Southern Medical University, including Escherichia coli, Acinetobacter baumannii and Enterobacter cloacae.
[0091] Other materials are the same as above.
[0092] (2) Strain culture: Clinical strains collected from Nanfang Hospital of Southern Medical University, including Escherichia coli, Acinetobacter baumannii and Enterobacter cloacae. Weigh 33g of nutrient agar medium solid powder, dissolve it in 1L of ultrapure water, sterilize it at 121℃ for 15min, and prepare nutrient agar medium for later use. Pipette 30μL of the frozen solution and inoculate it on the nutrient agar slant. Incubate it at 37℃ for 16-24h to complete activation. Inoculate the clinical strains into a suitable culture medium and culture it until the logarithmic growth phase (about 16-18h).
[0093] (3) Bacteria collection: Collect the bacteria, centrifuge at 10,000 rpm for 5 min, and discard the supernatant.
[0094] (4) Lysis: Add 600 μL of lysis buffer to resuspend the cells, mix thoroughly, and incubate at 65°C for 30 min.
[0095] (5) Magnetic bead adsorption: Add 200 μL of magnetic beads, mix well, and incubate at room temperature for 10 min.
[0096] (6) Washing: Wash the beads with 70% ethanol, centrifuge at 10,000 rpm for 30 seconds, and discard the supernatant. Repeat this step twice.
[0097] (7) Elution: Add 100 μL of elution buffer to elute the DNA on the magnetic beads, centrifuge at 10,000 rpm for 1 min, and collect the supernatant, which is the purified strain genomic DNA.
[0098] The yield and purity of the DNA purified using this method are shown in the following table:
[0099] Table 2
[0100]
[0101]
[0102] The results are shown in Table 2. At a lysis buffer pH of 6, the DNA concentration was 83 ng / μl and the A260 / 280 ratio was 1.7734. At a lysis buffer pH of 7, the DNA concentration was 86 ng / μl and the A260 / 280 ratio was 1.7986. The DNA was highly pure and free of protein contamination. This indicates that for Gram-negative bacteria such as Escherichia coli, Acinetobacter baumannii, and Enterobacter cloacae, the optimal lysis buffer pH range is between 6 and 7. Within this pH range, DNA molecules are relatively stable, protein degradation efficiency is high, and the adsorption efficiency of magnetic beads to DNA molecules is optimal.

[0275] Agarose gel electrophoresis results Figure 14 As shown, the samples added to each well (1-60) contained PCR products corresponding to 60 strains of Klebsiella pneumoniae, and the samples added to each well (1-15) contained PCR products corresponding to 15 strains of Enterobacter cloacae. The results showed clear, single DNA bands of the target gene with the correct band pattern, appearing at the expected position, demonstrating that this method has high accuracy and good specificity, effectively enabling the screening and identification of target genes. Furthermore, the absence of nonspecific band contamination in the electrophoresis pattern further demonstrates the reliability and stability of this method. This result confirms the correctness of the experimental design and operation, enabling the screening of target genes.
