in meat, milk, apple juice and cheese

Conclusions

•CaptivateTMO157 is an efficient method with high specificity and sensitivity. This immunomagnetic separation method should be a

very good alternative in order to concentrate E. coli O157 directly after preenrichment or to detect the O157 strains in a broth culture after other rapid tests (ELISA, ELFA, PCR, …).

•Further assays will be done on milk and apple juice to assess the real detection limit of the protocol for these matrixes. •Comparison of performance will be evaluated for milk, apple juice and cheese.

•To determine the practicability of the method, a collaborative trial will be organized.

Introduction

Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli is a serious health problem in various countries. In Belgium, all cases are sporadic and no outbreak has been detected. In the USA and UK, the consumption of poorly cooked minced beef is a major risk factor.

The immunomagnetic CaptivateTMmethod (IDG, England) has been compared with the validated method DynabeadsTManti-E. coli

O157 (Dynal, Norway) and the new ProbeliaTMO157:H7 method (Sanofi Diagnostic Pasteur, France).

Material, Methods and Results

Specificity

The specificity was evaluated on pure culture. All strains were cultivated in BHI broth during 24 hours at 37°C. The IMS was directly carried out on the 10-8dilution of these cultures.

The protocol recommanded by the producer was been followed. Briefly, 25g of tested product is homogenised in 225ml of mTSB broth with novobiocine supplement. After 6 and 24 hours of incubation at 42°C, the immunomagnetic separation step (IMS), which consist essentially, after addition of 20µl of beads to 1ml of culture, in 3 wash steps, is carried out. Fifty µl of the concentrated broth is plated onto sorbitol-Mac Conkey with and without cefixime and tellurite. Both medium are incubated 24 hours at 37°C. After incubation, O157 agglutination and biochemical characterisation are realised on typical colonies (Figure 1).

The CaptivateTMmethod concentrates only strains of E. coli O157:H7 and no cross-reactivity occurs with other strains of E. coli non O157.

Sensitivity

• Detection limit of the IMS

The detection limit of the IMS was estimated for 2 different strains. Like for specificity, the strains were cultivated 24 hours at 37°C in BHI broth and the IMS realised on 10-7to 10-10dilution. On the other hand,a 10-6

dilution was plated onto TSA and incubated 48 hours at 37°C. Both strains were analyzed two times (Table 2).

Four different matrixes (pasteurized apple juice, pasteurized milk, pasteurized cheese and irradiated meat) were spiked with 0, 1-5, 5-10, 10-20 and 20-50 cfu/25g of product. All spiked samples were analyzed two times (Table 3).

The IMS step detects level as low as 1 to 10 cfu E. coli O157/ml.

The CaptivateTM method is able to detect E. coli O157 in artificially contaminated samples at a rate of 1-5 cfu/25g (irradiated meat and pasteurized cheese) and at a rate lower than 10-25cfu/25g (pasteurized apple juice and pasteurized milk)

Comparison of performance

Meat and meat products were artificially contaminated with E. coli O157 at three levels comprise between 5 and 25cfu/25g. All samples were analyzed two times with the three methods (CaptivateTMO157,

DynabeadsTManti-E .coli O157 and ProbeliaTMO157:H7) and results

are shown in table 4.

The CaptivateTMmethod is as good as DynabeadsTMand ProbeliaTMO157:H7 in detecting artificially contaminated raw meat.
