Abstract

For foodborne pathogens pose a serious threat to public health, a magnetic separation strategy and a nanozyme-based biosensor are proposed for biosensing of Listeria monocytogenes (L. monocytogenes). In this work, doripenem is selected as a recognized molecule for the modification of magnetic beads to capture L.monocytogenes in food and environmental samples. Furthermore, the POD-like MXene-Hemin-Au is constructed from perspective of charge transfer engineering which provides a vivid example to rational design of nanozymes. Finally, the captured L.monocytogenes is labeled with MXene-Hemin-Au@mAb, forming the sandwich complexes for quantitative determination. The current signals that generated by the complexes exhibit a good linear relationship with a limit of detection of 2.3 × 101 CFU/mL. The biosensor shows a satisfactory applicability in real samples with recoveries of 91.19% to 102.98%. Overall, the biosensor with integrated magnetic separation strategy presents a potential approach for high sensitivity biosensing of foodborne pathogens.
