Physical, chemical, molecular and immunological methods
physics
Impedance measurement
impedance
In biological materials with resistance, inductance and capacitance, the impedance that hinders the measurement of current is called impedance.
Principle: Microorganisms change the electrical properties of the culture medium, and the electrically inert substrate decomposes into electroactive molecules and ions. The conductivity of the culture medium increases and the impedance decreases.
Changes in conductivity over time
Detection time: the time from culture to the sudden change in impedance value, inversely proportional to the original bacterial count
Deduced the original bacterial count of microorganisms
Microorganisms have different impedance curves
Microbial identification
direct impedance method
The culture medium is put into a special measuring tube. After inoculation with microorganisms, electrodes are inserted into the culture medium to directly measure changes in the electrical properties of the culture medium.
key factors, culture medium
The tested bacteria➕produce monitorable impedance changes
indirect impedance method
Microbial metabolism produces carbon dioxide, etc., to reflect the metabolic activity of microorganisms
Carbon dioxide enters the test tube and reacts with potassium hydroxide to produce carbonate, which reduces its conductivity and records the change in conductivity.
advantage
No need to optimize the culture medium (can react without electricity)
Can measure media containing high salt content
Measurable microorganisms that produce very little or no measurable change in conductivity, such as yeast
The measurable food itself may interfere with the impedance measurement or even damage the electrodes.
Microcalorimetry
Chemical
Determination of ATP
Energy source for living cells, disappears two hours after cell death
Cellular ATP is constant, and its total amount is proportional to the number of bacteria, which can be calculated
The ATP content of prokaryotic exponentially growing cells is usually 2-6 nmol/mg dry weight.
Accurate measurement of ATP in cells of the same species
Common methods —Measurement of ATP by luciferase system
ATP participates in the luciferin-luciferase system, causing luciferin to emit light, and the amount of light emitted is proportional to ATP
Calculate cell number based on luminescence intensity
It can automatically measure and detect quickly. The results are consistent with the SPC method, saving time.
application
