Abstract：
:The development of rapid methods for detection of viable Listeria monocytogenes is crucial to prevent listeriosis and product recalls. While immunomagnetic separation has been used for isolating Listeria spp., lack of specificity and pathogenicity determination render this method unsatisfactory. A two-step method using Protein A agarose beads (Immunobeads) coated with a more specific antibody, monoclonal antibody (MAb)-C11E9 for L. monocytogenes was developed. Immunobeads were allowed to capture Listeria cells from a variety of samples and tested for cytopathogenic action on a murine hybridoma B-lymphocyte, Ped-2E9 cell line by Trypan blue staining, and by an alkaline phosphatase (AP)-based cytotoxicity assay. The two-step method was used to test uninoculated hotdogs, bologna, and raw beef, chicken, and pork samples, following selective enrichment in half-Fraser broth. Pure culture studies proved the assay to be specific for L. monocytogenes, while a similar assay with Dynal Anti-Listeria immunomagnetic beads was positive for L. monocytogenes, L. ivanovii, and L. seeligeri. Detection and confirmation of cytopathogenicity of Listeria cells from food samples after 24-h selective enrichment were completed in 2-4 h. Isolates were further analyzed by the CAMP test for hemolytic activity and RiboPrinter for genomic patterns. Using immunoseparation and cytotoxicity as a two-step rapid method, viable L. monocytogenes could be isolated, detected, and confirmed as cytopathogenic in 28 h or less.
