The invention discloses a colorimetric biosensing
system based on
phenylalanine dehydrogenation, which is used for detecting
ochratoxin A. The invention provides a method for detecting OTA in a to-be-detected sample, which comprises the following steps: A1) carrying out
hydrolysis reaction on the to-be-detected sample by using
amide hydrolase VeADH to obtain a first-step reaction solution; a2) adding
phenylalanine dehydrogenase, coenzyme NAD < + > and
Glycine into the first-step reaction solution, and reacting again to obtain a second-step reaction solution; adding a color developing agent into the second-step reaction solution, and carrying out color developing reaction to obtain a
reaction product; detecting OTA in the sample to be detected according to the
reaction product; according to the invention, a novel OTA degrading
enzyme VeADH of an OTA sensing element and a product L-
phenylalanine sensing element
phenylalanine dehydrogenase are combined, and efficient, visual and quantitative detection of OTA is realized by using a
color reaction in a product
catalysis process.
