Rapid and Label-Free Immunosensing of Shiga Toxin Subtypes with Surface Plasmon Resonance Imaging.

ABSTRACT: Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) are responsible for gastrointestinal diseases reported in numerous outbreaks around the world as well as in the United States. Current detection methods have limitation to implement for rapid field-deployable detection with high volume of samples that are needed for regulatory purposes. Surface plasmon resonance imaging (SPRi) has proved to achieve rapid and label-free screening of multiple pathogens simultaneously, so it was evaluated in this work for the detection of Shiga toxins (Stx1a and Stx2a toxoids were used as the less toxic alternatives to Stx1 and Stx2, respectively). Multiple antibodies (Stx1pAb, Stx1-1mAb, Stx1-2mAb, Stx1d-3mAb, Stx1e-4mAb, Stx2pAb, Stx2-1mAb, Stx2-2mAb, and Stx2-10mAb) were spotted one by one by programed microarr
