Abstract
Campylobacter jejuni is a common foodborne pathogen found in poultry that can cause severe life-threatening illnesses in humans. It is important to detect this pathogen in food to manage foodborne outbreaks. This study reports a novel impedimetric phage protein-based biosensor to detect C. jejuni NCTC 11168 at 100 CFU/mL concentrations using a genetically engineered receptor-binding phage protein, FlaGrab, as a bioreceptor. The electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) technique was employed to measure changes in resistance upon interaction with C. jejuni. The sensitivity of the phage protein-immobilized electrode was assessed using the various concentrations of C. jejuni NCTC 11168 ranging from 102-109 colony forming units (CFU)/mL). The change transfer resistance of the biosensor increased with increasing numbers of C. jejuni NCTC 11168 cells. The detection limit was determined to be approximately 103 CFU/mL in the buffer and 102 CFU/mL in the ex vivo samples. Salmonella enterica subsp. enterica serotype Typhimurium-291RH and Listeria monocytogenes Scott A were used as nontarget bacterial cells to assess the specificity of the developed biosensor. Results showed that the developed biosensor was highly specific toward the target C. jejuni NCTC 11168, as no signal was observed for the nontarget bacterial cells.

期刊介绍:
Biosensors (ISSN 2079-6374) provides an advanced forum for studies related to the science and technology of biosensors and biosensing. It publishes original research papers, comprehensive reviews and communications. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. There is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. Electronic files and software regarding the full details of the calculation or experimental procedure, if unable to be published in a normal way, can be deposited as supplementary electronic material.
