Colorimetric-LAMP-Based Visual Intelligent Detection for Rapid Identification of Burkholderia gladioli pv. cocovenenans
摘要
Burkholderia gladioli pv. cocovenenans is an emerging foodborne pathogen commonly found in foodstuffs such as mushrooms and rice noodles. It produces bongkrekic acid, a highly lethal and thermostable toxin, posing a serious threat to food safety. Therefore, the development of rapid, cost-effective, and highly sensitive detection methods is urgently needed. In this study, Si–OH magnetic beads were employed for nucleic acid extraction, followed by loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) for the amplification of target DNA. This method effectively distinguishes B. gladioli pv. cocovenenans from non-toxic B. gladioli strains. The LAMP products were detected using fluorescence signals and visualized through colorimetric analysis, assisted by color analysis software integrated into a smartphone application. Results were classified based on hue, saturation, and lightness (HSL) values: orange (HSL ≦ 44.1) indicated a negative result, while green (HSL ≧ 63.8) indicated a positive result. The entire process can be completed in under 50 min. The detection sensitivity reached 2.5 pg/μL for purified pathogen DNA and 6.68 × 102 CFU/25 g for artificially contaminated rice noodle samples. This method is 10 times more sensitive than conventional polymerase chain reaction (PCR), providing a robust and efficient platform for the rapid detection of B. gladioli pv. cocovenenans in food safety monitoring.
