Abstract
Staphylococcal enterotoxins (SEs), the major virulence factors of Staphylococcus aureus, cause a wide range of food poisoning and seriously threaten human health by infiltrating the food supply chain at different phases of manufacture, processes, distribution, and market. The significant prevalence of Staphylococcus aureus calls for efficient, fast, and sensitive methods for the early detection of SEs. Here, we provide a comprehensive review of the hazards of SEs in contaminated food, the characteristic and worldwide regulations of SEs, and various detection methods for SEs with extensive comparison and discussion of benefits and drawbacks, mainly including biological detection, genetic detection, and mass spectrometry detection and biosensors. We highlight the biosensors for the screening purpose of SEs, which are classified according to different recognition elements such as antibodies, aptamers, molecularly imprinted polymers, T-cell receptors, and transducers such as optical, electrochemical, and piezoelectric biosensors. We analyzed challenges of biosensors for the monitoring of SEs and conclude the trends for the development of novel biosensors should pay attention to improve samples pretreatment efficiency, employ innovative nanomaterials, and develop portable instruments. This review provides new information and insightful commentary, important to the development and innovation of further detection methods for SEs in food samples.

Aggregation-Induced Red Emission Nanoparticle-Based Lateral Flow Immunoassay for Highly Sensitive Detection of Staphylococcal Enterotoxin A. Toxins (Basel) 2023; 15:toxins15020113. [PMID: 36828428 PMCID: PMC9964500 DOI: 10.3390/toxins15020113] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2022] [Revised: 01/17/2023] [Accepted: 01/19/2023] [Indexed: 01/31/2023] Open
Abstract
Staphylococcal enterotoxin A (SEA) has presented enormous difficulties in dairy food safety and the sensitive detection of SEA provides opportunities for effective food safety controls and staphylococcal food poisoning tracebacks. Herein, a novel aggregation-induced emission (AIE)-based sandwich lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) was introduced to detect SEA by using red-emissive AIE nanoparticles (AIENPs) as the fluorescent nanoprobe. The nanoprobe was constructed by directly immobilising antibodies on boronate-tagged AIENPs (PBA-AIENPs) via a boronate affinity reaction, which exhibited a high SEA-specific affinity and remarkable fluorescent performance. Under optimal conditions, the ultrasensitive detection of SEA in pasteurised milk was achieved within 20 min with a limit of detection of 0.04 ng mL-1. The average recoveries of the PBA-AIENP-LFIA ranged from 91.3% to 117.6% and the coefficient of variation was below 15%. It was also demonstrated that the PBA-AIENP-LFIA had an excellent selectivity against other SE serotypes. Taking advantage of the excellent sensitivity of this approach, real chicken and salad samples were further analysed, with a high versatility and accuracy. The proposed PBA-AIENP-LFIA platform shows promise as a potent tool for the identification of additional compounds in food samples as well as an ideal test method for on-site detections.

Abstract
The accurate detection of Staphylococcus aureus enterotoxins (SEs) is vital for food safety owing to their high pathogenicity, which may be performed with surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) if SERS-active nanostructures are used. Herein, a Au-Ag Janus nanoparticle (NPs)/perovskite composite-engineered SERS immunoassay was developed for SEC detection. Plasmonic Au-Ag Janus NPs demonstrated inherent SERS activity from the 2-mercaptobenzoimidazole-5-carboxylic acid ligands. CsPbBr3@mesoporous silica nanomaterials (MSNs) were prepared and transformed into CsPb2Br5@MSNs in the aqueous phase. Paired SEC antibody-antigen-driven plasmonic Au-Ag Janus NP-CsPb2Br5@MSN composites were prepared. They showed amplified SERS activity, attributed to the depressed plasmonic decay due to electromagnetic field enhancement and the electron transfer mechanism. A positive relationship was established between SERS signals of composites and the SEC concentration. An additive-free SERS immunoassay was developed for simple, sensitive, and reproducible SEC detection. This study will be extended to develop multiple additive-free SERS-active plasmonic NP/perovskite composites that will open up the possibility of exploring more SERS detection probes for food safety monitoring.

Abstract
Ochratoxin A (OTA) and staphylococcus enterotoxin A (SEA) are highly toxic contaminants and have induced human health problems. They commonly occur in milk and milk products. A competitive fluorescent immunoassay was developed for rapid and simultaneous determination of these toxins in milk samples. The procedure was based on the competitive immunoreactions between antigens in sample and antigen-fluorescent dye conjugates with immobilised antibodies on magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs). Each monoclonal antibody specifically recognises its corresponding toxin (antigen), and there is no cross-reactivity in the assay. First, monoclonal antibodies against OTA and SEA were produced. The activity of the obtained antibodies was determined by fluorescent-linked immunosorbent assay. Then, the monoclonal antibodies were immobilised on MNPs. The amounts of immobilised anti-OTA antibody and anti-SEA antibody were determined to be 20 and 22 μg mL-1, respectively. The antigen-fluorescent dye conjugates OTA-OVA-ATTO620 and SEA-FITC were prepared. The optimal amount of immobilised antibodies for competitive immunoassay was determined. It was found that the linear range of OTA in buffer was larger (0.001-100 ng mL-1) than the linear range of SEA (0.001-20 ng mL-1). The results for simultaneous determination of OTA and SEA in sixfold diluted milk were almost the same in buffer; the linear range for OTA was from 0.005 to 100 ng mL-1 and for SEA from 0.005 to 20 ng mL-1. The detection limit for both OTA and SEA in milk was 0.004 ng mL-1. The developed method took half the time of the individual assays (20 min). The assay was evaluated using spiked milk samples. The influences of somatic cell count, fat, pH and protein concentration in milk on immunoassay were studied. In summary, this developed immunoassay could provide an effective and rapid approach for detecting multi-toxins in milk samples.

Abstract
Objectives:
Staphylococcus aureus is a Gram-positive microorganism. S. aureus can grow in various foods and cause food poisoning by secreting enterotoxins. The most common enterotoxins involved in food poisoning are staphylococcal enterotoxin A and staphylococcal enterotoxin B, but Staphylococcal Enterotoxin A (SEA) is predominant. The main types of food contaminated with SEs are meat and meat products, poultry and eggs, milk and dairy products. The aim of this study was to develop a rapid and sensitive fluorescence immunoassay for detection of staphylococcal enterotoxin A in milk.
Methods:
Monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies for SEA were produced and characterized. Competitive fluorescence immunoassay based on Magnetic Nanoparticles (MNPs) was performed and optimized. MNPs were used as a solid carrier of the antibodies. The first step of the assay was immunoreaction between the immobilized antibody onto MNPs and SEA in milk sample. Then the fluorescein-SEA conjugate was added to the sample. Thus, competitive immunoreaction between MNP-mAb/MNP-pAb with SEA and SEA-FITC was performed. These immuno-complexes were separated by a magnetic separator and the obtained supernatants were analyzed. The fluorescent signal from the excess of conjugated SEA was proportional to the SEA contained in the milk. The assay duration was only 30 min.
Results:
The fluorescence immunoassays performed with polyclonal antibody had linear ranges from 5 pg/mL to 100 ng/mL SEA in a buffer, and from 50 pg/mL to 50 ng/mL SEA in spiked milk samples. While the same assays performed with monoclonal antibody had linear ranges from 1 pg/mL to 20 ng/mL SEA in buffer, and from 10 pg/mL to 10 ng/mL SEA in spiked milk samples. The detection limits of the developed immunoassays performed in milk were: 48 pg/mL with polyclonal antibody and 9 pg/mL with monoclonal antibody.
Conclusion:
A rapid and sensitive fluorescence immunoassay based on magnetic nanoparticles with a polyclonal and monoclonal antibody for determination of staphylococcal enterotoxin A in milk was developed.
