ABSTRACT
2
A simple colorimetric aptasensor system has been developed to detect Vibrio
3
parahaemolyticus. Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) are synthesized and conjugated
4
with specific aptamers against target and used as capture probes. In addition, this
5
method employs gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) as carriers of horseradish peroxidase
6
(HRP) and aptamers, which served as signal probes. In the presence of target, a
7
“sandwich-type” complex of AuNPs-HRP-aptamer-target-aptamer-MNPs is formed
8
through specific recognition of aptamers and corresponding target. As a result, HRP
9
molecules confine at the surface of the “sandwich” complexes catalyze the enzyme
10
substrate, 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) and H2O2, and generate an optical
11
signal. Under optimal conditions, the signals are linearly dependent on V.
12
parahaemolyticus concentrations from 10 to 106 cfu/mL in a logarithmic plot, with a
13
limit of detection 10 cfu/mL. Owning to AuNPs, a large amount of HRP could be
14
loaded; resulting in an amplified signal and the sensitivity would be improved. This
15
strategy has the potential of being extended to the construction of simple monitor
16
systems for a variety of biomolecules related to food safety.

INTRODUCTION
27
Vibrio parahaemolyticus, is a gram-negative bacterium, which naturally inhabits
28
marine and estuarine environments. 1 It has become one of the most common causes
29
of food-borne gastroenteritis, particularly in areas with high seafood consumption.
30
Consumption of raw/undercooked seafood results in acute gastroenteritis with the
31
following symptoms: headache, abdominal cramps, vomiting, diarrhea and nausea.
32
With more and more consumption of seafood, V. parahaemolyticus becomes a food
33
safety concern in many Asian countries.
34
cases of foodborne illnesses in China. In Chinese province of Guangdong, 29.22%
35
outbreaks of food-borne disease were related to V. parahaemolyticus. 5 Therefore, it is
36
very important to reduce contamination of seafood with V. parahaemolyticus in order
37
to prevent food poisoning and ensure the safety of seafood products.

Recently, a variety of analytical methods have been reported for the detection of
39
pathogenic bacteria. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR), which is high sensitivity and
40
specificity, is a commonly used method for detection of V. parahaemolyticuscauses in
41

To rival antibodies in these ways, aptamers with high affinity and selectivity are

beginning to emerge. Aptamers are short single-stranded DNA or RNA molecules

58
with various chemical tags which could not influence its affinity. Moreover, aptamers
59
are small in molecular weight and superior in stability, which can bear repetitious
60
denaturation and renaturation. Overall, these unique characteristics make aptamers an
61
ideal recognition element for biosensors. As a potential analysis tool in the
62
construction of aptasensors, optical analysis has attracted much more interest of
63
researchers due to its high sensitivity, quick response and simple operation.

NaCl (w/v) overnight past the logarithmic phase. One hundred microliters of the
102
bacterial culture was diluted with medium and coated on the agar plates and cultured
103
at 37 °C for 18 h to count colony forming units. The rest of the bacteria were
104
collected carefully by centrifugation at 3000 rpm and 4 °C and washed twice in a
105
1×binding buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl at pH 7.4, 5 mM KCl, 100 mM NaCl, and 1 mM
106
MgCl2) at room temperature.

Synthesis of HRP-labeled AuNPs
109
Briefly, all glassware used in the experiment were cleaned with aqua regia
110
(HNO3/HCl, 3:1, v/v), rinsed thoroughly in ultrapure water, and dried prior to use.
111
0.5 mL of 1% HAuCl4 solution and 49.5 mL ultrapure water were heated to boiling
112
point for 10 min with continuous stirring. Then, 1.5 mL of 1% trisodium citrate
113
was rapidly added, stirred, and boiled for 15 min. The solution colour changed
114
from gray to blue, then purple, and finally to wine red during this period. The
115
heating source was removed, and the colloid was cooled down to room temperature.
116
HRP-labeled AuNPs were prepared according to the previous report, with slight
117
modifications.
118
with 17.5 µL of HRP molecules (1 mg/mL) to incubate for 10 min at 25 °C under
119
gentle shaking. Then, the mixed solution was stood overnight at 4 °C. After incubated
120
with PEG (0.5%, w/v) for 30 min at 25 °C, the mixture was centrifuged (12 000 rpm,
121
20 min) to remove the unbound HRP molecules and PEG, and washed with PBS for
122
three times. The final deposition was suspended in 200 µL of PBS and stored at 4 °C
123
for further use.

126
HRP-labeled AuNPs modified by aptamer were prepared according to the literature 19
127
with some modification.
This protocol was based on the Au-S interaction between
128
the gold lattice and thiolated aptamer. Briefly, 10 µL of 10 µM apt 1 was added to 190
129
µL of the already prepared HRP-labeled AuNPs solution and reacted for 16 h. Then
130
the HRP-labeled AuNPs-apt 1 complex was aged with salts (0.1 M NaCl, 10 mM
131
phosphate, pH 7.0) for 40 h. The prepared complex was centrifuged at 12500 rpm for
132
15 min twice to remove the free aptamer. Then, the HRP-labeled AuNPs-apt 1 was
133
dispersed in 200 µL of binding buffer for subsequent experiments.
134 135 136
Synthesis of MNPs and aptamer functionalized MNPs The amine-functionalized MNPs were prepared by a one-step solvothermal method 20
137
according to report.
Typically, 6.5 g of 1,6-hexanediamine, 2.0 g of anhydrous
138
sodium acetate and 1.0 g of FeCl3•6H2O were dissolved in 30 mL of glycol to form a
139
transparent solution with stirring vigorously at 50 °C. The mixture was subsequently
140
transferred into a Teflonlined autoclave and heated to 198 °C for 6 h. The product was
141
cooled to room temperature and then washed with water and ethanol (2 or 3 times)
142
followed by drying at 50 °C.
143
The primary amine groups on the surface of MNPs were activated by
144
glutaraldehyde, allowing amine groups on aptamer oligonucleotides to be covalently
145
attached. Briefly, 1 mg of the MNPs was dispersed in 1 mL of 10 mM phosphate
146
buffer solution (PBS, pH 7.4), and 0.25 mL of 25% glutaraldehyde was added into the
147
solution. The reaction was continued for 2 h at room temperature gentle shaking,
148
followed by washing three times with PBS. The resultant MNPs were dispersed in 1
149
mL of 10 mM PBS, and 50 µL of apt 2 (10 µM) were added and incubated for 2 h at
150
37 °C with gentle shaking. Next, the MNPs-apt 2 complexes were magnetically 7

collected and rinsed twice with PBS.
152 153
Procedure for analysis of V. parahaemolyticus
154
In a typical experiment, 200 µL of AuNP-HRP-apt 1 and 150 µL of MNPs-apt 2 (1
155
mg/mL) were first mixed. Then, 50 µL of binding buffer containing various
156
concentrations of V. parahaemolyticus was added and incubated for 30 min at 37 °C
157
with gentle shaking. After incubation, the magnetic beads were magnetically collected
158
and rinsed with PBS twice. Then, 100 µL of TMB-H2O2 solution was added to each
159
tube, and these tubes were incubated at 37 °C for 15 min with gentle shaking. Color
160
development was stopped by adding 100 µL of 0.5 M sulfuric acid. After the
161
magnetic separation, the absorbance at 450 nm of the supernatant was read with UV
162
spectrophotometer.
163 164
Real samples treatment
165
The water samples were collected from the Tai Lake, the Yellow sea, laboratory
166
and groundwater, China, respectively. Then the water samples were filtered through
167
0.45 µm filter. Different V. parahaemolyticus concentrations were then added to the
168
prepared samples for the experiments.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
171
Principle of the aptasensor
172
Scheme 1 shows the principle of this developed aptasensor. MNPs were modified
173
with aptamer to act as the capture probe. AuNPs were coated with a large amout of
174
HRP and linked to aptamer to act as signal amplifiers. In the presence of target,
175
aptamers both on the surface of MNPs and AuNPs bound with the target with high 8

176
affinity and specificity, leading to MNPs-aptamer-target-aptamer-HRP-AuNPs
177
sandwich complexes formed. With an extra magnetic field, unbound AuNPs-HRP-
178
aptamer was removed. In the addition of TMB-H2O2, HRP on the sandwich
179
complexes were catalyzed and generated an optical signal. With the carrier of AuNPs,
180
a large amount of HRP could be loaded; resulting in an amplified signal and the
181
sensitivity would be improved.
182 183
Characteristics of AuNPs and MNPs
184
The morphology characteristics of AuNPs were shown in Fig. 1A. The AuNPs are
185
monodisperse and spherical with the average size of 15 nm. As shown in Fig. 1B, the
186
UV/vis spectrum of AuNPs solution (black line) exhibited a characteristic plasmon
187
absorption peak at 520 nm. After modification of HRP on the surface, the UV/vis
188
spectrum of the AuNP complex showed a small surface plasmon shift from 520 nm to
189
524 nm (red line). The shift after modification of AuNPs with HRP was attributed to
190
changes in the particle size and the dielectric nature surrounding the AuNPs due to the
191
presence of protein. Both results suggested successful immobilization of HRP onto
192
the AuNPs.
193
The TEM and FT-IR techniques were used to obtain information about the as-
194
synthesized MNPs. Fig. 1C shows TEM image of the MNPs, indicating a good
195
dispersibility and morphology. Fig. 1D shows the FT-IR spectra of MNPs. Formation
196
of MNPs were confirmed by a strong IR band at 586 cm-1 that comes from the Fe-O
197
vibrations. The bands around 1590, 1410 and 1060 cm-1 were NH bending mode and
198
C-N stretching vibration, respectively. The results from FT-IR revealed that the
199
MNPs have been functionalized with amino groups in the synthetic process.

Characteristics of the nanoparticles conjugated to aptamer
202
We applied UV/vis spectrophotometer to validate the successful coupling of
203
thiolated labeled aptamer (apt 1) to AuNPs-HRP through Au-S bonding and biotin
204
labeled aptamer (apt 2) to avidin-modified MNPs through biotin-avidin specific
205
bonding. As shown in Fig. 2A, AuNPs-HRP shows an absorbance peak at 524 nm
206
(curve a), with the addition of apt 1 another peak at 260 nm which is characteristic
207
absorption of DNA has been observed (curve b).
208
Similarly, no strong absorbance peak was detected for MNPs (curve c). After
209
conjugation to avidin, a new absorption peak at approximately 280 nm, which is
210
characteristic absorption peak of avidin, was observed (curve d). With the subsequent
211
addition of apt 2, the peak at 260 nm was also observed (curve e). These results
212
demonstrate that aptamers were successfully coated on the nanoparticles.
213 214
Optimization for the assay
215
According to the principle of the assay, experimental parameters such as the
216
amount of aptamer functionalized MNPs and aptamer functionalized AuNPs-HRP
217
complex would affect the signal response. The effect of the MNPs-apt 2 was first
218
studied. As shown in Fig. 3A, Response signals increased with increasing MNPs-apt 2,
219
and a maximum was attained at 150 µL (1 mg/mL). Further increase in MNPs-apt 2
220
concentration, it had very little additional beneficial effect. Therefore, an optimal
221
volume of 150 µL MNPs-apt 2 was chosen in subsequent experiments. Fig. 3B shows
222
optimization of the AuNPs-HRP-apt 1 complex concentration. The value of A450 was
223
found to increase as the AuNPs-HRP-apt 1 complex concentration was increased until
224
200 µL, after which the A450 plateaued and remained constant. Therefore, 200 µL of
225
the AuNPs-HRP-apt 1 complex was used for subsequent experiments. 10

Analytical performance
227
Utilizing the optimal conditions in this system, the catalytic ability of the HRP-
228
labeled AuNPs on TMB oxidation in the presence of different concentrations of V.
229
parahaemolyticus was investigated. Results were evaluated in terms of (A-A0), where
230
A0 and A are the absorbance of the colorimetric aptasenosr method in the absence and
231
presence of V. parahaemolyticus, respectively. As displayed in Figure 4A, the
232
absorbance was increased along with the V. parahaemolyticus concentration. A clear
233
change from light yellow to dark yellow could be obviously differentiated by the
234
naked eyes (inset A). As shown in Fig. 4B, the A-A0 exhibits a good linear
235
relationship with V. parahaemolyticus in the concentration range from 10 to 106
236
cfu/mL. The linear regression equation of V. parahaemolyticus is described as
237
Y=0.2357x-0.1057 (R2=0.9940), and the detection limit was found to be 10 cfu/mL.
238 239
Specificity, interference and practical performance of the assay
240
To investigate the selectivity of the developed method, the AuNPs and MNPs
241
complex were employed to detect other pathogenic bacteria, including V.
242
alginolyticus, V.vulnificus, V. mimicus, Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhimurium,
243
and Staphylococcus aureus at a concentration of 104 cfu/mL, which might affect the
244
detection of V. parahaemolyticus in real sample analysis. As shown in Fig. 5, it
245
clearly seen that only V. parahaemolyticus induces a dramatic increase of absorbance,
246
whereas other species produced signals as low as the blank control. These results
247
clearly demonstrated that the developed method is appropriate for the selective
248
detection of V. parahaemolyticus.
249
In addition, we examined the effect of a variety of possible interfering substances in
250
this system. We used a range of proteins, small molecules and ions to determine the 11
ACS Paragon Plus Environment
Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry
251
selectivity for V. parahaemolyticus. Under the optimized conditions (the
252
concentration of V. parahaemolyticus was set as 104 cfu/mL), none of the other
253
interferents affected detection signals, even at concentrations as high as 2% bovine
254
serum albumin, 10 µg/mL of immunoglobulin G, and 100 mM of resorcinol,
255
microcystic toxins and 500 mM of Na+, K+, Pb2+ and Cd2+. Thus results clearly
256
demonstrated that the developed method specifically identified V. parahaemolyticus
257
in real environment.
258
The practical performance of the developed method was validated with four real
259
water samples. Accuracy of this method was evaluated by determining the recoveries
260
of V. parahaemolyticus in the water samples by standard addition method. The water
261
samples were spiked with V. parahaemolyticus at the desired concentrations (2×102,
262
and 2×103 cfu/mL), which was analyzed by standard culture and colony counting
263
method. Then, the spiked samples were analyzed by the colorimetric aptasensor
264
method. As can be seen from Table 1, the recoveries of the V. parahaemolyticus in the
265
four real water samples are between 92.0% and 102.0%. These results show that
266
recoveries of V. parahaemolyticus and the reproducibility are satisfactory.
267
In summary, we developed a colometric aptasensor to detect V. parahaemolyticus
268
in which AuNPs were used as carriers of HRP and aptamer, and MNPs-aptamer were
269
used as supporting substrates for capture targets. The AuNPs-HRP-aptamer complex
270
loaded a high amount of HRP amplification enzyme, thus the developed assay based
271
on the AuNPs complex exhibited improved sensitivity. This feature, as well as its
272
convenient magnetic separation, made it a promising alternative to conventional
273
pathogenic bacteria methods. This assay system displayed excellent specificity,
274
sensitivity, and linearity for quantitative detection of the target molecules, along with
275
the production of a color signal that can be detected by the naked eye. In addition, this 12

276
method has a potential to detect other bacteria by changing aptamers.
