Problems solved by technology

This method can give the specific concentration value of Escherichia coli, but since the substrate MUG also has fluorescence intensity at the emission peak position of the product 4-MU, when the amount of Escherichia coli in the sample is very small, the amount of 4-MU produced is very small , the product signal cannot be separated from the substrate signal

Abstract

The invention relates to a fluorescent signal enhancement method for detecting escherichia coli by an enzyme substrate process, and belongs to the technical field of escherichia coli detection. An enzyme substrate targeted by the method provided by the invention is MUG, and the technical problems that a combination of 366 nm excitation and 450 nm emission is adopted in the prior art, after the MUGbackground is excited by 366 nm, the MUG background has certain fluorescence intensity at 450 nm, when the concentration of escherichia coli is very low, the yield of 4-MU is low, a product signal isinseparable from a background signal, so that water samples with an extremely low escherichia coli concentration cannot be detected by current methods are solved. The method for detecting the escherichia coli by the enzyme substrate process provided by the invention adopts the manner of adding one-step operation after the end of incubation and before fluorescence measurement; the operation is that the pH is adjusted to >=9 by using an alkaline reagent, the absorption peak of the product 4-MU can be obviously enhanced, the absorption peak of the substrate MUG changes little, so that the product signal can be separated from the background signal; and through the operation provided by the invention, the difference in fluorescence intensity between the product signal and the background signalis increased by five times, and the method is particularly suitable for detection of the escherichia coli with a very low concentration.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of Escherichia coli detection, in particular to a fluorescent signal enhancement method for detecting Escherichia coli with an enzyme substrate method. Background technique [0002] The detection of Escherichia coli is of great significance as an indicator microorganism of fecal pollution. The method of detecting E. coli based on metabolism is widely used because of its wide detection range and high accuracy. By selecting a suitable enzyme substrate, such as the use of E.coli can produce β-glucuronidase, decompose 4-methylumbelliferone-β-D-glucuronide (MUG) to generate fluorescent 4-methyl Umbelliferone (4-MU) was detected. Escherichia coli with this metabolic pathway can be detected. At present, there are two ways to realize the E. coli detection method based on the enzyme substrate method. One method is the multi-well plate method stipulated in the national standard law (HJ1001-2018). Under certain con...
