Dojindo,CTC/100/C440,CTC 多种方式用于检测细菌

根据目标,CTC 可以多种方式用于检测细菌。检测方法包括琼脂平板培养法,其中包括对细菌培养产生的菌落进行计数;使用荧光染色法对细菌进行染色;使用 DVC 方法检测具有生长潜力的细菌;使用FISH法-DNA扩增法检测特定细菌。 CTC 通过呼吸活动通过电子转移还原为 CTC 甲臜 (CTF),并在不溶于水的细胞内以荧光沉降的形式积聚。 CTC本身是水溶性的,在水溶液中不发荧光;然而,CTF 在低粘度流体中不发荧光。然而,在高粘度和固态的流体中,它会发出红色荧光。通过在荧光显微镜下计数或通过流式细胞仪分析,可以在将 CTC 与试剂一起孵育后寻找具有呼吸活性的细胞。通过使用核酸染色试剂对总细胞群和活细胞数量进行计数,或者使用 FISH 方法对特定的活细胞类型进行选择性计数,可以收集更高水平的数据。由于 VNC(可存活但不可培养)细菌的存在(已变得明显),对微生物快速检测方法的需求正在上升,并有望成为卫生检测技术。
