Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of microbial detection, and particularly relates to a fluorescence PCR kit and a detection method for qualitatively detecting Vibrio parahaemolyticus. Background Art

[0002] Vibrio parahaemolyticus (VP) is a Gram-negative halophilic pathogen that can grow in an environment containing 0.5%-8% salt, has the characteristic of facultative anaerobiosis, and its morphology mostly appears rod-shaped or curved. This pathogen is widely distributed in seawater, estuaries, silt, and seafood such as fish, shrimp, shellfish, and algae. VP is one of the main pathogens causing human foodborne disease infections. Once people consume aquatic products contaminated by it, not fully cooked, or cross-contaminated, they are extremely likely to cause Vibrio parahaemolyticus food poisoning, which in turn leads to diseases such as gastroenteritis. In China, VP is the primary pathogen causing foodborne diseases, mainly transmitted through seafood such as crustaceans and shellfish. Relevant research shows that when the number of Vibrio parahaemolyticus in food reaches ≥10 6 CFU / mL, it can cause diseases, but currently, there are still many difficulties in its rapid and accurate qualitative detection.

[0003] Currently, the detection of Vibrio parahaemolyticus mainly uses traditional methods, among which the national standard method (national standard method) occupies an important position. The national food safety standard has standardized the traditional detection techniques for foodborne pathogenic bacteria. Taking the qualitative method specified in GB4789.7-2013 as an example, its process mainly includes four links: pre-enrichment, selective isolation, biochemical identification, and serological identification. Although this method is mature and reliable, the operation process is cumbersome, not only consuming a large amount of time and energy, and the entire detection cycle is as long as 6-7 days. If the Kanagawa test is added to determine the virulence of the strain, the total time is even more than 10 days, far from meeting the need for rapid detection of VP.

[0004] In recent years, food poisoning incidents caused by foodborne pathogenic bacteria have occurred frequently. However, although traditional detection methods are relatively mature in technology, they have problems such as cumbersome operation steps, long detection cycles, and poor sensitivity, making it difficult to achieve the purpose of rapid and accurate detection and unable to meet the investigation needs of relevant departments for food safety incidents and the actual needs of the market. In this context, some emerging rapid detection methods have emerged. Among them, molecular biology techniques represented by real-time fluorescence PCR (Quantitative real-time PCR, qPCR), with their advantages of rapidity, accuracy, high efficiency, and precision, have gradually been widely used in the field of rapid detection of pathogenic bacteria. However, the current rapid detection methods for Vibrio parahaemolyticus still need to be further improved and optimized to better ensure food safety. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of the above technical problems, the present application provides a fluorescence PCR kit and a detection method for qualitatively detecting Vibrio parahaemolyticus, so as to solve the problems existing in the existing detection technologies, such as cumbersome operation, long detection cycle, low sensitivity, etc., and achieve rapid, accurate, and specific qualitative detection of Vibrio parahaemolyticus, meeting the requirements of clinical and food safety detections.

[0041] The positive control is the genomic DNA of Vibrio parahaemolyticus ATCC17802, and the concentration is set to 70 ng / μL.

[0042] qPCR reaction system: In the qPCR reaction system, the working solution concentrations and loading amounts of each component are as follows: 2×SuperReal PreMix (Probe) 12.5 μL, blaCARB-F (10 μM) 0.75 μL, so that the final concentration reaches 300 nM; blaCARB-R (10 μM) 0.75 μL, the final concentration is 300 nM; blaCARB-P (10 μM) 0.5 μL, the final concentration is 250 nM; DNA template (concentration range is 100 - 60 ng / μL) 2 μL; deionized water 8.5 μL, and the total volume of the reaction system is 25 μL.

[0049] Specific analysis is as follows according to the above fluorescence PCR kit and detection method:

[0050] I. Test strains and culture conditions: A total of 72 strains were used in the experiment, including 2 standard strains of Vibrio parahaemolyticus (ATCC 17802, CGMCC 1.1997), 15 self-isolated strains (isolated from aquatic products), 15 standard / reference strains of other Vibrios, and 26 standard strains of other common foodborne pathogenic bacteria and probiotics. All Vibrio and non-Vibrio strains were activated for 3 generations on T1 N1 agar plates and BHI agar plates respectively, and probiotics were cultured using MRS medium. Single colonies were picked and inoculated into 5 mL of 2% sodium chloride alkaline peptone water, 5 mL of BHI liquid medium, and MRS liquid medium respectively, and cultured with shaking at 37 °C and 110 r / min for 18 h. 1 mL of the bacterial solution was taken for 10-fold serial dilution for subsequent extraction of bacterial genomic DNA.

[0051] Design, screening of qPCR primers and probes

[0052] Design: Select the single-copy β-lactamase encoding gene blaCARB (GenBank no. KJ934265.1) of Vibrio parahaemolyticus as the target sequence, perform sequence analysis and alignment through the NCBI online tool, and use the online website (INTEGRATED DNA TECHNOLOGIES,

[0053] https: / / sg.idtdna.com / site / account / login?returnurl=%2FPrimerquest%2FHome%2FIndex) to design 4 pairs of primer and probe combinations.

[0054] Screening: The overnight culture DNA of Vibrio parahaemolyticus (ATCC 17802) was extracted using a bacterial genomic DNA extraction kit (Tiangen Biochemical Technology Co., Ltd., product number: DP302). Four sets of primer-probe pairs were used to amplify the extracted DNA. The results showed that one set of primer-probe (i.e., the primer and probe finally adopted) had the best fluorescence signal intensity. Therefore, this set of primer-probe was selected for subsequent detection.

[0055] Specificity analysis of qPCR for detecting Vibrio parahaemolyticus: The genomic DNA of the pure cultures of the above 72 strains of bacteria was extracted using a bacterial genomic DNA extraction kit. The DNA concentration was adjusted to 70 ng / μL and used for qPCR detection respectively. The primer-probe obtained by screening was used, and sterile water was used instead of the template as a negative control.

[0056] The results showed that positive amplification signals appeared in the standard strains of Vibrio parahaemolyticus (ATCC 17802, CGMCC 1.1997) and 15 self-isolated strains, while the detections of other vibrios and common foodborne pathogenic bacteria were all negative without amplification curves, proving that this method has good specificity.

[0057] Detection of pure Vibrio parahaemolyticus liquid

[0058] qPCR detection: The bacterial liquid DNA of the overnight culture of Vibrio parahaemolyticus (ATCC 17802) was extracted using a bacterial genomic DNA extraction kit (Tiangen Biochemical Technology Co., Ltd., product number: DP302). The extraction steps were carried out according to the kit instructions. Finally, the nucleic acid was dissolved in 100 μL TE buffer. The extracted DNA was diluted 10-fold serially and then subjected to qPCR detection. The results showed that it was detectable at the 10 -8 dilution.

[0059] The qPCR detection results showed a good linear relationship (R2 = 0.999) in the range from the undiluted solution to 10 -6 . The slope of the standard curve was -3.265, and the amplification efficiency reached 102%.

[0060] Plate counting: At the same time, for the 10-fold serially diluted pure Vibrio parahaemolyticus (ATCC17802) liquid, 1 mL of the bacterial suspension was respectively pipetted into sterile petri dishes, and two petri dishes were made for each dilution. Immediately, 15 - 20 mL of plate counting T1N1 agar medium cooled to 46 °C was poured into the petri dishes and the petri dishes were rotated to mix evenly. After the agar solidified, it was incubated at 36 °C in an inverted position for 24 h ± 2 h. The total number of colonies was counted for the plates with the number of colonies between 30 - 300 CFU and no spreading colony growth. The average number of colonies of two plates was taken for each dilution. The original bacterial liquid concentration was measured to be 3.2×10 9CFU / mL. Combining with the qPCR detection results, it can be known that for the pure Vibrio parahaemolyticus solution, the detection limit of fluorescence PCR is 32 CFU / mL.

[0061] Detection of artificially contaminated salmon samples: Salmon samples verified to be free of Vibrio parahaemolyticus by traditional methods were selected as the addition matrix. The overnight culture suspension of Vibrio parahaemolyticus (ATCC17802) was serially diluted 10-fold and plated for counting. At the same time, 1 mL of the bacterial suspensions at 10 -4 、10 -5 、10 -6 dilutions were respectively added to the homogenization bags containing 25 g of salmon samples + 225 mL of PBS. Five sample replicates were set for each addition concentration. Another 25 g of salmon sample was added with 225 mL of PBS instead of the added bacterial suspension as a negative control.

[0062] The above samples were homogenized with a stomacher for 2 min to prepare a series of contaminated samples containing different concentrations of Vibrio parahaemolyticus at a ratio of 1:10. 1 mL of each sample homogenate was used to extract bacterial genomic DNA using a kit (Tiangen Biochemical Technology Co., Ltd., product number: DP302). Finally, the nucleic acid was dissolved in 100 μL of TE buffer for qPCR detection.

[0063] The results showed that the salmon samples at 10 -4 、10 -5 contamination levels showed positive amplification, and 10 -6 showed partial positive amplification. In the actual sample detection, for the salmon samples at 10 -4 、10 -5 contamination levels, the coefficient of variation CV of the determination results of the blaCARB gene of Vibrio parahaemolyticus was less than 20%. The lowest quantification limit of this qualitative detection method could reach 108 CFU / mL, meeting the requirements of the minimum control levels for Vibrio parahaemolyticus contamination in food at home and abroad.

After activating all Vibrio and non-Vibrio strains for 3 generations on T1 N1 agar plates and BHI agar plates respectively, for probiotics, using MRS medium, single colonies were picked and inoculated into 5 mL of 2% sodium chloride alkaline peptone water, 5 mL of BHI liquid medium, and MRS liquid medium respectively. They were cultured with shaking at 37 °C and 110 r / min for 18 h. 1 mL of the bacterial solution was taken for 10-fold serial dilution, which was used for the extraction of bacterial genomic DNA.

Sequence analysis and alignment were performed using the NCBI online tool, and 4 pairs of primer and probe combinations were designed using the online website (INTEGRATED DNATECHNOLOGIES,

[0075] https: / / sg.idtdna.com / site / account / login?returnurl=%2FPrimerquest%2FHome%2FIndex). The sequences are shown in Table 1. After screening, finally, 1 set of primers / probes with good fluorescence signal, strong specificity, and suitable for qPCR amplification conditions was obtained. The probe was labeled with FAM at the 5' end and BHQ at the 3' end. The primers / probes were synthesized by Sangon Biotech (Shanghai) Co., Ltd.

[0088]

[0089] 4. Screening of primers and probes for qPCR detection of Vibrio parahaemolyticus

[0090] Extract the DNA of the overnight culture of Vibrio parahaemolyticus (ATCC 17802) using a bacterial genomic DNA extraction kit (Tiangen Biochemical Technology Co., Ltd., product number: DP302). Amplify the extracted DNA using 4 sets of primer-probe pairs. The amplification results show that the fluorescence signal intensity of FRP3 is the best. The results are shown in Figure 1 , and select FRP3 as the proposed fluorescence probe.

[0091] 5. Specificity analysis of qPCR detection of Vibrio parahaemolyticus

[0092] Extract the genomic DNA of the pure cultures of the strains listed in Table 1 using a bacterial genomic DNA extraction kit, adjust the DNA concentration to 70 ng / μL, and use them for qPCR detection respectively. Use the FRP3 primer-probe, and at the same time use sterile water instead of the template as a negative control to determine the specificity of this method. The results show that positive amplification signals appear in the standard strains of Vibrio parahaemolyticus (ATCC 17802, CGMCC1.1997) and 15 self-isolated strains, while the detections of other Vibrio species and common foodborne pathogenic bacteria are all negative without amplification curves. It is proved that this method has good specificity.

[0093] 6. Detection of pure Vibrio parahaemolyticus culture

[0094] 6.1 qPCR detection

[0095] The overnight culture of Vibrio parahaemolyticus (ATCC17802) was used to extract the DNA of the bacterial solution with a bacterial genomic DNA extraction kit (Tiangen Biochemical Technology Co., Ltd., product number: DP302). The extraction steps were carried out according to the kit instructions, and finally the nucleic acid was dissolved in 100 μL TE buffer. The extracted DNA was diluted 10-fold serially, and then qPCR detection was performed. The results showed that it could be detected at a dilution of 10 -8 dilution ([[]] Figure 2A ). qPCR showed a good linear relationship in the range from the undiluted solution to 10 -6 (R 2 = 0.999), the slope of the standard curve was -3.265, and the amplification efficiency reached 102%([[]] Figure 2B ).

[0096] 6.2 Plate counting

[0097] At the same time, for the pure Vibrio parahaemolyticus (ATCC17802) culture diluted 10-fold serially, 1 mL of the bacterial suspension was respectively pipetted into sterile petri dishes, and two petri dishes were made for each dilution. Immediately, 15 - 20 mL of plate counting T1N1 agar medium cooled to 46 °C was poured into the petri dishes, and the petri dishes were rotated to mix evenly. After the agar solidified, it was incubated at 36 °C in an inverted position for 24 h ± 2 h. The total number of colonies was counted for the plates with colony numbers between 30 - 300 CFU and no spreading colony growth. The average number of colonies of two plates should be taken for each dilution. The results showed that the concentration of the original bacterial solution was 3.2×10 9 CFU / mL, while fluorescence PCR detection could detect up to a dilution of 10 -8 . Thus, it can be seen that for the pure Vibrio parahaemolyticus culture, the detection limit of fluorescence PCR is 32 CFU / mL.

[0098] 7. Detection of artificially contaminated salmon samples

[0099] Salmon samples verified to be free of Vibrio parahaemolyticus by traditional methods were selected as the addition matrix. The overnight culture suspension of Vibrio parahaemolyticus (ATCC 17802) was diluted 10-fold serially and plate counted. At the same time, 10 -4 , 10 -5 , 10 -61 mL of the dilution bacterial liquid was added to a homogenization bag containing 25 g of salmon samples + 225 mL of PBS respectively. Five sample replicates were set for each added concentration. Another 25 g of salmon samples were added with 225 mL of PBS instead of the added bacterial liquid as a negative control. The above samples were homogenized with a beating homogenizer for 2 min to prepare a series of contaminated samples containing different concentrations of Vibrio parahaemolyticus at a ratio of 1:10. 1 mL of the homogenate of each sample was used to extract bacterial genomic DNA by using a kit (Tiangen Biochemical Technology Co., Ltd., product number: DP302). Finally, the nucleic acid was dissolved in 100 μL of TE buffer for qPCR detection to observe the detection effect in actual samples.

[0100] According to the plate counting results of the added bacterial liquid, it was estimated that the content of Vibrio parahaemolyticus in the 10 -4 to 10 -6 bacterial liquid contaminated samples was 1.08×10 3 ~1.08×10 1 CFU / mL. It was found that the salmon samples at the contamination levels of 10 -4 and 10 -5 all showed positive amplification, and 10 -6 showed partial positive amplification. The qPCR amplification curve is as Figure 3 shown. In the actual sample detection, for the salmon samples at the contamination levels of 10 -4 and 10 -5 the coefficient of variation CV of the determination results of the blaCARB gene of Vibrio parahaemolyticus was less than 20%. The lowest quantitative limit of this qualitative detection method could reach 108 CFU / mL, meeting the requirements of the minimum control levels for Vibrio parahaemolyticus contamination in foods at home and abroad.
