The 3M Petrifilm Staph Express Count System was compared with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's Bacteriological Analytical Manual (BAM) direct-plate count method for the enumeration of Staphylococcus aureus in 6 types of artificially contaminated hard cheese (Asiago, Cheddar, Gruyère, Parmesan, Romano, and Swiss). Five different samples of each cheese type were inoculated with S. aureus (ATCC 25923) to achieve low, medium, and high inoculum levels. S. aureus was enumerated by the Petrifilm and BAM methods, and the results were compared. Multivariate analysis of variance revealed no significant differences (P<0.05) between the 2 methods. The Petrifilm method compared favorably with the BAM procedure. The rapid method was more convenient to use, considerably faster, and less expensive to perform than the BAM method.  相似文献

Staphylococcal food poisoning is one of the most common foodborne diseases worldwide; it results from the ingestion of staphylococcal enterotoxins (SEs) in food, mainly Staphylococcus aureus. This study investigated the statistical relationships among morphological enumerations of food-derived S. aureus and production of SEs using different methodologies. Food samples naturally contaminated with coagulase-positive S. aureus were submitted for enumeration on Baird-Parker (BP) agar, Rabbit Plasma Fibrinogen agar (RPFA), and Petrifilm Staph Express count system (STX), and the morphologically typical colonies were isolated for VIDAS and real-time (RT) PCR tests. RPFA and STX displayed better performance for the enumeration of SE-positive S. aureus when compared with BP, including higher frequencies of SE-positive isolates and better correlation indices between typical and SE-positive counts. Among all the evaluated culture media, no significant difference (P > 0.05) was shown on the frequencies of typical colonies that carried 11 individual se genes. In addition, results for SE identification between VIDAS and RT-PCR assay were unparalleled. These data will be valuable for the selection of methods for inspection of food-derived S. aureus.  相似文献

The 3M Petrifilm Staph Express Count plate method was compared with AOAC Official Method 975.55 for the enumeration of Staphylococcus aureus in selected foods. Five foods--ice cream, raw milk, yogurt, whey powder, and cheese--were analyzed for S. aureus by 12 collaborating laboratories. For each food tested, the collaborators received 8 blind test samples consisting of a control sample, a low inoculation level, a medium inoculation level, and a medium inoculation level with background flora, each in duplicate. The mean log10 counts for the methods were comparable for all 5 foods. The repeatability and reproducibility variances of the 24 h Petrifilm Staph Express Count plate method were similar to those of the 72 h standard method.  相似文献

A rehydratable dry-film plating method for coliforms in foods, the 3M Petrifilm Rapid Coliform Count plate method, was compared with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration's Bacteriological Analytical Manual method for nondairy foods and the American Public Health Association's Standard Methods for the Examination of Dairy Products (SMEDP) method for dairy foods. Six food types, vanilla ice cream, cheddar cheese, fresh refrigerated uncooked pasta, wheat flour, prepared frozen macaroni and cheese, and frozen hash browns, were analyzed for coliforms by 11 collaborating laboratories. For each food product tested, the collaborators received 8 blind samples consisting of a control sample and 3 levels of inoculated sample, each in duplicate. The mean log counts for the methods were comparable. The repeatability and reproducibility variances of the Petrifilm Rapid Coliform Count method at 14 and 24 h were not significantly different from those of the standard methods.  相似文献

RAPID'Staph (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Hercules, CA) is a medium for differentiation and enumeration of coagulase-positive Staphylococcus aureus in food. RAPID'Staph medium is based on a Baird Parker formula optimized for the detection and enumeration of S. aureus in 24 h. The principle of the medium relies on the capacity of S. aureus to reduce tellurite (production of black colonies) and to provoke proteolysis of egg yolk (production of clear halo around the colony). Four foods (pasteurized whole milk, custard pie, processed ham, and smoked salmon) were selected to compare the performance of RAPID'Staph agar to AOAC Official Method 975.55. Method comparison studies demonstrated excellent agreement between the methods. Inclusivity and exclusivity rates of the medium were 100%. RAPID'Staph agar performed as expected when minor procedural variations were introduced, validating the ruggedness of the method. There was no difference in performance between the dehydrated and ready-to-use formulations of the media.  相似文献

A rehydratable dry-film plating method for Escherichia coli, the Petrifilm E. coli/Coliform (EC) Count Plate in foods, has been compared with the AOAC INTERNATIONAL most probable number (MPN) method. Eleven laboratories participated in the collaborative study. Three E. coli levels in 8 samples each of frozen raw ground turkey, frozen raw ground beef, and frozen cooked fish were tested in duplicate. Mean log counts for the Petrifilm plate procedure were not significantly different from those for the MPN procedure for cooked fish samples inoculated with low or high inocula levels, for samples of raw turkey inoculated at medium level, and for beef inoculated at low, medium, and high levels. Repeatability and reproducibility variances of the Petrifilm EC Plate method recorded at 24 h were as good as or better than those of the MPN method. The dry rehydratable film method for enumerating confirmed E. coli in poultry, meats, and seafood has been adopted first action by AOAC INTERNATIONAL.  相似文献

Bisphenol A (BPA) is a widely used plasticizer that can contaminate food and the wider environment and lead to human exposure. In humans, it is mainly metabolized to bisphenol A-glucuronide (BPA-G) and eliminated in the urine. As BPA causes adverse physiological effects at low doses, it is necessary to document the toxicokinetics of both molecules for risk assessment. Because BPA-G is not available as an analytical standard, it is usually quantified after the assay of BPA, following an enzymatic hydrolysis with β-glucuronidase. With this approach, two separate assays are required for BPA and BPA-G quantification, which can lead to critical pitfalls in terms of accuracy and analysis time. To overcome this problem, we have developed a new method for the isolation and purification of BPA-G from urine by flash chromatography. Large amounts of BPA-G (1 g) were isolated and characterized by mass spectrometry and NMR. This BPA-G is suitable for an use as analytical standard and enabled us to develop a novel method for the simultaneous quantification of BPA and BPA-G in biological matrices by UPLC/MS/MS. It has also been used for in vivo toxicokinetic studies in sheep. The method of quantification was validated according FDA guidelines and used to monitor the time course of plasma and urine concentrations of BPA or BPA-G following their administration. The simultaneous quantification of BPA and BPA-G was compared to the commonly used method for urine and plasma samples. For plasma samples, the results obtained with the direct assay of BPA-G were similar to those obtained by quantification after enzymatic hydrolysis. With urine samples, the simultaneous quantification appeared to be more suitable than the hydrolysis method for the BPA-G determination.  相似文献

The rapid detection of pathogenic bacteria is extremely important in biotechnology and clinical diagnosis. CE has been utilized in the field of bacterial analysis for many years, but to some extent, simultaneous separation and identification of certain microbes from complex samples by CE coupled with UV detector is still a challenge. In this paper, we propose a new strategy for rapid separation and identification of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) in bacterial mixtures by means of specific mAb-coated latex coupled with CZE. An appropriate set of conditions that selectively isolated S. aureus from the microorganisms Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Klebsiella pneumoniae were established. S. aureus could be differentiated from the others by unique peaks in the electropherograms. The validity was also confirmed by LIF with antibodies specific to both the latex and the microbial cells. The LOD is as low as 9.0 x 10(5) colony forming unit/mL. We have also utilized this technology to identify S. aureus in a stool sample coming from a healthy volunteer spiked successfully with S. aureus. This CZE-UV technique can be applied to rapid diagnosis of enteritis caused by S. aureus or other bacterial control-related fields needing rapid identification of target pathogens from microbial mixtures. In theory, this method is suitable for the detection of any bacterium as long as corresponding bacterium-specific antibody-coated latex is available.  相似文献

Bisphenol A (BPA) is a common additive in food packaging materials, and many methods have been discovered to limit BPA for the sake of food safety. This study aims to find a more sensitive quantification method for BPA. It was determined that a diazo derivative of BPA could be obtained when reacted with a stable and inexpensive reagent, p‐methylaniline, exhibiting an increased response in the ultraviolet spectrum than that of nonreacted BPA. Based on this discovery, an accurate method of BPA quantitation was established using a precolumn derivatization HPLC method. The results of this study showed the low limit of detection and the limit of quantitation for BPA were 3.6 and 10.9 pg/mL on‐column, respectively. This method is proven to have much higher sensitivity and a lower limit of detection than direct HPLC determination methods. This method is robust, easily handled, sensitive and cost‐effective for the quantitation of BPA. In addition, the broad application of this method to determine BPA content in plastic bottled drinking water, distilled water, tap water, milk, Sprite and grape juice was demonstrated in this paper.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

A large number of hazardous chemicals have entered the environment due to the rapid growth of urbanisation and industrial development and are exerting harmful effects on wildlife as well as on human health. Plastic materials are one of the most leading causes for this contamination which are widely used in daily activities of human beings, i.e. disposal purpose, food packaging, bottles, containers, cups, grocery bags, etc. These materials contain Bisphenol A (BPA) and Bis-sulphone (BIS) which have been recognised as potential endocrine disruptors. In the present study, a selective and reliable high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) based method was developed with the mobile phase of 10 mM ammonium acetate buffer-acetonitrile (58:42 v/v, pH: 5) using quality by design (QbD) approach and the method was validated for the simultaneous assessment of BPA and BIS. The method was observed with a good linearity range of 50–500 ng/mL with an r2 value of 0.998 and 0.999 for BPA and BIS, respectively. The developed and validated method was applied for the estimation of endocrine-disrupting chemicals in sewage water and soil samples. The results showed a considerable amount of BPA and BIS in the samples. This preliminary data explored the presence of BPA and BIS in these environmental samples that give the primary awareness of the effluence of BPA and BIS in the environment.  相似文献

A simple and rapid analytical method based on in-matrix ethyl chloroformate (ECF) derivatization has been developed for the quantitative determination of bisphenol-A (BPA) in milk and water samples. The samples containing BPA were derivatised with ECF in the presence of pyridine for 20 s at room temperature, and the non-polar derivative thus formed was extracted using polydimethylsiloxane solid-phase microextraction (SPME) fibres with thicknesses of 100 μm followed by analysis using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Three alkyl chloroformates (methyl, ethyl and isobutyl chloroformate) were tested for optimum derivatisation yields, and ECF has been found to be optimum for the derivatisation of BPA. Several parameters such as amount of ECF, pyridine and reaction time as well as SPME parameters were studied and optimised in the present work. The limit of detection for BPA in milk and water samples was found to be 0.1 and 0.01 μg L(-1), respectively, with a signal-to-noise ratio of 3:1. The limit of quantitation for BPA in milk and water was found to be 0.38 and 0.052 μg L(-1), respectively, with a signal-to-noise ratio of 10:1. In conclusion, the method developed was found to be rapid, reliable and cost-effective in comparison to silylation and highly suitable for the routine analysis of BPA by various food and environmental laboratories.  相似文献

The purpose of this study was to develop an analytical method for determination of bisphenol A (BPA) from fruits and vegetables. The present method developed for extraction of BPA from samples was based on solid-phase extraction (SPE) method and solvent extraction. Recovery results in the samples spiked with a 10 ng/ml BPA [no detection (<1 ng/g) to 77%] were lower than those in the samples with a 50 ng/ml BPA (26-96%). The fact that the low recovery results were caused by BPA degradation by enzymes is found. These problems were proved by the pH (pH ≤3) and the heating treatment (at ≥80 °C for 5 min). However, because the heating treatment at temperatures of ≥80 °C for 5 min is more difficult and time-consuming method than the pH control, we suggest that the pH control is useful to prevent BPA degradation. Good recovery results (82-101%) were obtained from all fruit and vegetable samples after pH treatment (pH ≤3). Effective elimination of impurities and a good detection limit (1 ng/g) were obtained with a method involving two SPE cartridges (OASIS HLB and Sep-Pak Florisil cartridge).  相似文献

A novel and simple imprinted amino-functionalized silica gel material was synthesized by combining a surface molecular imprinting technique with a sol-gel process on the supporter of activated silica gel for solid-phase extraction-high performance liquid chromatography (SPE-HPLC) determination of bisphenol A (BPA). Non-imprinted silica sorbent was synthesized without the addition of BPA using the same procedure as that of BPA-imprinted silica sorbent. The BPA-imprinted silica sorbent and non-imprinted silica sorbent were characterized by FT-IR and the static adsorption experiments. The prepared BPA-imprinted silica sorbent showed high adsorption capacity, significant selectivity and good site accessibility for BPA. The maximum static adsorption capacity of the BPA-imprinted and non-imprinted silica sorbent for BPA was 68.9 and 34.0 mg g−1, respectively. The relatively selective factor value of this BPA-imprinted silica sorbent was 4.5. Furthermore, the difference of the retention characteristics of BPA on the C8 SPE column and BPA-imprinted silica SPE (MIP-SPE) was compared. The MIP-SPE-HPLC method showed higher selectivity to BPA than the traditional SPE-HPLC method. At last, the BPA-imprinted polymers were used as the sorbent in solid-phase extraction to determine BPA in water samples with satisfactory recovery higher than 99% (R.S.D. 3.7%).  相似文献

The application of a boronate precolumn in the trace determination of 4,4'-isopropylidenediphenol (bisphenol A or BPA) in aqueous solution was investigated by microcolumn liquid chromatography (LC). BPA was enriched by a precolumn packed with TSK(gel) boronate and it was then injected (back-flushed) into an ODS separation column. Comparing to a conventional syringe injection, a better peak shape was obtained via the boronate precolumn injection, and the calculated theoretical plate number improvement was approximately two folds. The relative standard deviations for the retention time, peak area and peak height were 0.12, 3.0 and 1.8%, respectively. The system is linear (R2>0.99) within the working sample concentration and sample-volume ranges, and it presents a detection limit of 0.09 microg L(-1)(S/N=3) when a 0.2 mL sample was enriched. Recovery values of the proposed method were between 107 and 123%, and this method was applied satisfactorily to the determination of BPA in commercially available bottled drink samples. The boronate precolumn was proven to produce better sensitivity than that of an ODS or C30 precolumn as long as the enrichment of BPA in aqueous samples is concerned.  相似文献

A method for rapid screening, identification and detection of genetically modified soybean by multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and capillary gel electrophoresis with laser-induced fluorescence (CGE–LIF) was developed and applied to actual food samples. A triplex PCR procedure was used to amplify the parts of nopaline synthase (NOS) terminator, and the junction between cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter and chloroplast transit peptide CTP4 trait gene, as well as the lectin gene to allow the screening and identification of specific transgenic soybean line (glyphosate-tolerant soybean). The multiplex PCR parameters and conditions of capillary gel electrophoresis were optimized. The amplified DNA fragments were analyzed by CGE–LIF. The amplified PCR products were analyzed by CGE–LIF within about 20 min. The method developed is highly sensitive and allows the detection of a percentage of genetically modified soybean as low as 0.025%. The percentage is low enough to fulfill the requirement of the EU Regulation for transgenic food labeling of 1.0%. The sequences of the multiple PCR products were identical with those published in Genbank. The proposed method has been used in identification and detection of genetically modified soybean in various food samples. Compared with agarose gel electrophoresis (AGE), the proposed method is more rapid, accurate and requires a smaller amount of samples. Thus an efficient alternative method is provided for monitoring genetically modified soybean in order to meet the increasing demand of implementation of the genetically modified food labeling policy.  相似文献
