摘要: Overuse of antibiotics and the emergence of multidrug-resistant bacteria has made colistin the last line of defence against complex infections. In previous studies, MCR-1-mediated colistin resistance was mainly detected through PCR or antimicrobial susceptibility testing. However, intuitive detection methods for phenotype are rarely reported. In this study, two small peptide antibodies were constructed for im-munofluorescence detection of mcr-1-harbouring Escherichia coli: one was a small peptide labelled with a quantum dot antibody; and the other was a small peptide labelled with a fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) antibody. Whether using FITC or quantum dots, colistin-resistant bacteria in the sample could be qualitatively detected. The assembled antibodies achieved the desired goals in terms of sensitivity, speci-ficity, precision and repeatability. The non-specific problem of sandwich antigen recognition of lipid A binding to small peptides in modified lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was resolved, and this relatively devel-oped immunofluorescence technique standardised the detection process. Together, in addition to PCR, both fluorescent antibodies can be used for immunofluorescent detection of mcr-1-harbouring E. coli.& COPY; 2023 Elsevier Ltd and International Society of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy.
