Lima Â, Muzny CA, Cerca N. An Indirect Fluorescence Microscopy Method to Assess Vaginal Lactobacillus Concentrations. Microorganisms 2024; 12:114.

Abstract
Lactobacillus species are the main colonizers of the vaginal microbiota in healthy women. Their absolute quantification by culture-based methods is limited due to their fastidious growth. Flow cytometry can quantify the bacterial concentration of these bacteria but requires the acquisition of expensive equipment. More affordable non-culturable methods, such as fluorescence microscopy, are hampered by the small size of the bacteria. Herein, we developed an indirect fluorescence microscopy method to determine vaginal lactobacilli concentration by determining the correlation between surface area bacterial measurement and initial concentration of an easily cultivable bacterium (Escherichia coli) and applying it to lactobacilli fluorescence microscopy counts. In addition, vaginal lactobacilli were quantified by colony-forming units and flow cytometry in order to compare these results with the indirect method results. The colony-forming-unit values were lower than the results obtained from the other two techniques, while flow cytometry and fluorescence microscopy results agreed. Thus, our developed method was able to accurately quantify vaginal lactobacilli.

INTERNATIONAL MICROBIOLOGY : THE OFFICIAL JOURNAL OF THE SPANISH SOCIETY FOR MICROBIOLOGY 2023:10.1007/s10123-023-00323-7. [PMID: 36609954 DOI: 10.1007/s10123-023-00323-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2022] [Revised: 12/23/2022] [Accepted: 01/04/2023] [Indexed: 01/09/2023]
Abstract
This study evaluated the potential pathogenicity and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) of Vibrio species isolated from inland saline shrimp culture farms. Out of 200 Vibrio isolates obtained from 166 shrimp/water samples, 105 isolates were identified as V. parahaemolyticus and 31 isolates were identified as V. alginolyticus and V. cholerae, respectively. During PCR screening of virulence-associated genes, the presence of the tlh gene was confirmed in 70 and 19 isolates of V. parahaemolyticus and V. alginolyticus, respectively. Besides, 10 isolates of V. parahaemolyticus were also found positive for trh gene. During antibiotic susceptibility testing (AST), very high resistance to cefotaxime (93.0%), amoxiclav (90.3%), ampicillin (88.2%), and ceftazidime (73.7%) was observed in all Vibrio species. Multiple antibiotic resistance (MAR) index values of Vibrio isolates ranged from 0.00 to 0.75, with 90.1% of isolates showing resistance to ≥ 3 antibiotics. The AST and MAR patterns did not significantly vary sample-wise or Vibrio species-wise. During the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) testing of various antibiotics against Vibrio isolates, the highest MIC values were recorded for amoxiclav followed by kanamycin. These results indicated that multi-drug resistant Vibrio species could act as the reservoirs of antibiotic resistance genes in the shrimp culture environment. The limited host range of 12 previously isolated V. parahaemolyticus phages against V. parahaemolyticus isolates from this study indicated that multiple strains of V. parahaemolyticus were prevalent in inland saline shrimp culture farms. The findings of the current study emphasize that routine monitoring of emerging aquaculture areas is critical for AMR pathogen risk assessment.

Abstract
Conventional techniques (e.g., culture-based method) for bacterial detection typically require a central laboratory and well-trained technicians, which may take several hours or days. However, recent developments within various disciplines of science and engineering have led to a major paradigm shift in how microorganisms can be detected. The analytical sensors which are widely used for medical applications in the literature are being extended for rapid and on-site monitoring of the bacterial pathogens in food, water and the environment. Especially, within the low-resource settings such as low and middle-income countries, due to the advantages of low cost, rapidness and potential for field-testing, their use is indispensable for sustainable development of the regions. Within this context, this paper discusses analytical methods and biosensors which can be used to ensure food safety, water quality and environmental monitoring. In brief, most of our discussion is focused on various rapid sensors including biosensors and microfluidic chips. The analytical performances such as the sensitivity, specificity and usability of these sensors, as well as a brief comparison with the conventional techniques for bacteria detection, form the core part of the discussion. Furthermore, we provide a holistic viewpoint on how future research should focus on exploring the synergy of different sensing technologies by developing an integrated multiplexed, sensitive and accurate sensors that will enable rapid detection for food safety, water and environmental monitoring.

Abstract
In recent years, the scale of population exposure and food poisoning caused by Vibrio parahaemolyticus (V. parahaemolyticus) has shown a significant upward trend, becoming one of the primary food-borne pathogens. Herein, we developed a rapid and sensitive detection of V. parahaemolyticus by integrating the technology of magnetic nanobeads (MBs) based immunoseparation (IMS) with quantum dots (QDs) based immunofluorescence. Firstly, specific rabbit polyclone IgG antibodies (IgG) and chicken egg yolk antibodies (IgY) of V. parahaemolyticus were prepared. Then two sizes of MBs (1 μm; 180 nm) were coupled with IgG to form immuno-MB (IMB) capture probes for evaluating the effect of different sizes on the detection efficiency. For QDs, they were conjugated with IgY to form fluorescent reporting probes. In the process of detection, IMB probes were used to separate V. parahaemolyticus and then these complexes were labeled by QD probes on the principle of double antibody sandwich. The fluorescence intensity of the IMB-V. parahaemolyticus-QD complexes was measured by a fluorescence spectrophotometer. The detection method takes 150 min with a detection limit of 102 cfu mL-1 ranging from 102 to 106 cfu mL-1 and it has been shown to work satisfactorily in real food samples.

Abstract
Among the various bacterial pathogens associated with the aquaculture environment, Vibrio parahaemolyticus the important one from shrimp and human health aspects. Though having been around for several decades, phage-based control of bacterial pathogens (phage therapy) has recently re-emerged as an attractive alternative due to the availability of modern phage characterization tools and the global emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. In the present study, a total of 12 V. parahaemolyticus specific phages were isolated from 264 water samples collected from inland saline shrimp culture farms. During the host range analysis against standard/field isolates of V. parahaemolyticus and other bacterial species, lytic activity was observed against 2.3-45.5% of tested V. parahaemolyticus isolates. No lytic activity was observed against other bacterial species. For genomic characterization, high-quality phage nucleic acid with concentrations ranging from 7.66 to 220 ng/µl was isolated from 9 phages. After digestion treatments with DNase, RNase and S1 nuclease, the nature of phage nucleic acid was determined as ssDNA and dsDNA for 7 and 2 phages respectively. During transmission electron microscopy analysis of phage V5, it was found to have a filamentous shape making it a member of the family Inoviridae. During efficacy study of phage against V. parahaemolyticus in shrimp, 78.1% reduction in bacterial counts was observed within 1 h of phage application. These results indicate the potential of phage therapy for the control of V. parahaemoyticus in shrimp.

Abstract
Vibrio parahaemolyticus (V. parahaemolyticus) caused huge diseases and economic losses in shrimp aquaculture. Understanding the infection mechanism might help develop new strategies for controlling pathogen outbreak. Redistribution of trace element homeostasis, accompanied by impairment of antioxidant status and immune response, was observed during various infections. Accordingly, we hypothesized that V. parahaemolyticus infection might influence trace element homeostasis, impair antioxidant function, and induce inflammation response in shrimp. In the present study, the aim of this study was to investigate the influence of V. parahaemolyticus infection on trace element homeostasis, antioxidant status, and inflammation response in Litopenaeus vannamei (L. vannamei). The results showed that compared with the control group, V. parahaemolyticus infection significantly increased (P < 0.05) intestinal V. parahaemolyticus number, serum copper (Cu) concentration at 24, 48, and 72 h and significantly increased (P < 0.05) serum zinc (Zn), iron (Fe), and manganese (Mn) concentrations at 24 h but decreased (P < 0.05) at 72 h. The intestinal gene expressions of metal transporters ZIP13, CTR1, and MT1 were significantly decreased at 24, 48, and 72 h, and DMT1 was significantly decreased at 48 h and 72 h in the infection group. The activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) were suppressed at 48 h and 72 h, and the malondialdehyde (MDA) content was increased at 24, 48, and 72 h in the infection group; the pro-inflammatory genes including necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), lipopolysaccharide-induced TNF-α factor (LITAF), and Ras-related protein Rab6A (RAB6A) were significantly upregulated at 48 and 72 h in the infection group. These results suggest that V. parahaemolyticus infection influenced trace element homeostasis, impaired antioxidant function, and induced inflammation response in L. vannamei, which might help understand the infection mechanism. The results provide a better understanding of the L. vannamei and V. parahaemolyticus interactions and may deliver the basis for further research in preventing the bacterial diseases.

Abstract
Acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND), caused by marine bacteria Vibrio Parahaemolyticus, is a huge problem in shrimp farms. The V. parahaemolyticus infecting material is contained in a plasmid which encodes for the lethal toxins PirABVp, whose primary target tissue is the hepatopancreas, causing sloughing of epithelial cells, necrosis, and massive hemocyte infiltration. To get a better understanding of the hepatopancreas response during AHPND, juvenile shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei were infected by immersion with V. parahaemolyticus. We performed transcriptomic mRNA sequencing of infected shrimp hepatopancreas, at 24 hours post-infection, to identify novel differentially expressed genes a total of 174,098 transcripts were examined of which 915 transcripts were found differentially expressed after comparative transcriptomic analysis: 442 up-regulated and 473 down-regulated transcripts. Gene Ontology term enrichment analysis for up-regulated transcripts includes metabolic process, regulation of programmed cell death, carbohydrate metabolic process, and biological adhesion, whereas for down-regulated transcripts include, microtubule-based process, cell activation, and chitin metabolic process. The analysis of protein- protein network between up and down-regulated genes indicates that the first gene interactions are connected to oxidation-processes and sarcomere organization. Additionally, protein-protein networks analysis identified 20-top highly connected hub nodes. Based on their immunological or metabolic function, ten candidate transcripts were selected to measure their mRNA relative expression levels in AHPND infected shrimp hepatopancreas by RT-qPCR. Our results indicate a close connection between the immune and metabolism systems during AHPND infection. Our RNA-Seq and RT-qPCR data provide the possible immunological and physiological scenario as well as the molecular pathways that take place in the shrimp hepatopancreas in response to an infectious disease.

Abstract
Conventional methods for the detection of Vibrio parahemolyticus (VP) usually need tedious, labor-intensive processes, and have low sensitivity, which further limits their practical applications. Herein, we developed a simple and efficient colorimetry and surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) dual-mode immunosensor for sensitive detection of VP, by employing giant Au vesicles with anchored tiny gold nanowires (AuNW) as a smart probe. Due to the larger specific surface and special hollow structure of giant Au vesicles, silver staining would easily lead to vivid color change for colorimetric analysis and further amplify SERS signals. The t-test was further used to determine if two sets of data from colorimetry and SERS were significantly different from each other. The result shows that there was no significant difference between data from the two methods. Two sets of data can mutually validate each other and avoid false positive and negative detection. The designed colorimetry-SERS dual-mode sensor would be very promising in various applications such as food safety inspection, personal healthcare, and on-site environmental monitoring.

Abstract
Vibrio parahaemolyticus, a Gram-negative motile bacterium that inhabits marine and estuarine environments throughout the world, is a major food-borne pathogen that causes life-threatening diseases in humans after the consumption of raw or undercooked seafood. The global occurrence of V. parahaemolyticus accentuates the importance of investigating its virulence factors and their effects on the human host. This review describes the virulence factors of V. parahaemolyticus reported to date, including hemolysin, urease, two type III secretion systems and two type VI secretion systems, which both cause both cytotoxicity in cultured cells and enterotoxicity in animal models. We describe various types of detection methods, based on virulence factors, that are used for quantitative detection of V. parahaemolyticus in seafood. We also discuss some useful preventive measures and therapeutic strategies for the diseases mediated by V. parahaemolyticus, which can reduce, to some extent, the damage to humans and aquatic animals attributable to V. parahaemolyticus. This review extends our understanding of the pathogenic mechanisms of V. parahaemolyticus mediated by virulence factors and the diseases it causes in its human host. It should provide new insights for the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of V. parahaemolyticus infection.

Abstract
The incidence of foodborne diseases has increased over the years and resulted in major public health problem globally. Foodborne pathogens can be found in various foods and it is important to detect foodborne pathogens to provide safe food supply and to prevent foodborne diseases. The conventional methods used to detect foodborne pathogen are time consuming and laborious. Hence, a variety of methods have been developed for rapid detection of foodborne pathogens as it is required in many food analyses. Rapid detection methods can be categorized into nucleic acid-based, biosensor-based and immunological-based methods. This review emphasizes on the principles and application of recent rapid methods for the detection of foodborne bacterial pathogens. Detection methods included are simple polymerase chain reaction (PCR), multiplex PCR, real-time PCR, nucleic acid sequence-based amplification (NASBA), loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) and oligonucleotide DNA microarray which classified as nucleic acid-based methods; optical, electrochemical and mass-based biosensors which classified as biosensor-based methods; enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and lateral flow immunoassay which classified as immunological-based methods. In general, rapid detection methods are generally time-efficient, sensitive, specific and labor-saving. The developments of rapid detection methods are vital in prevention and treatment of foodborne diseases.

Abstract
Vibrio parahaemolyticus is a marine microorganism, recognized as cause of gastroenteritis outbreaks associated with seafood consumption. In this study the development and the in-house validation of a colony hybridization method for the enumeration of total and potentially pathogenic V. parahaemolyticus is reported. The method included a set of three controls (process, hybridization and detection control) for the full monitoring of the analytical procedure. Four digoxigenin-labeled probes were designed for pathogenic strains enumeration (tdh1, tdh2, trh1 and trh2 probes) and one for total V. parahaemolyticus count (toxR probe). Probes were tested on a panel of 70 reference strains and 356 environmental, food and clinical isolates, determining the inclusivity (tdh: 96.7%, trh: 97.8%, toxR: 99.4%) and the exclusivity (100% for all probes). Accuracy and linearity of the enumeration were evaluated on pure and mixed cultures: slopes of the regression lines ranged from 0.957 to 1.058 depending on the target gene and R(2) was greater than or equal to 0.989 for all reactions. Evaluation was also carried on using four experimentally contaminated seafood matrices (shellfish, finfish, crustaceans and cephalopods) and the slopes of the curves varied from 0.895 (finfish) to 0.987 (cephalopods) for the counts of potentially pathogenic V. parahaemolyticus (R(2)≥0.965) and from 0.965 to 1.073 for total V. parahaemolyticus enumeration (R(2)≥0.981). Validation was performed on 104 naturally contaminated shellfish samples, analyzed in parallel by colony hybridization, ISO/TS 21872-1 and MPN enumeration. Colony hybridization and ISO method showed a relative accuracy of 86.7%, and a statistically significant correlation was present between colony hybridization enumeration and MPN results (r=0.744, p<0.001). The proposed colony hybridization can be a suitable alternative method for the enumeration of total and potentially pathogenic V. parahaemolyticus in seafood.

Abstract
Vibrio ordalii is the causative agent of atypical vibriosis and has the potential to cause severe losses in salmonid aquaculture. To prevent and control outbreaks, a rapid, reproducible, sensitive, and effective diagnostic method is needed. We evaluated a new conventional polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and real-time PCR (qPCR) protocol using a primer set (VohB_Fw-VohB_Rv) designed to amplify a 112 bp fragment flanking the vohB gene (coding for hemolysin production), against 24 V. ordalii strains isolated from different fish species, the V. ordalii type strain, and 42 representative related and unrelated bacterial species. The primer set was species-specific, recognizing all V. ordalii strains evaluated, with no cross-reaction with the other bacterial species. A sensitivity of 103 copies of the vohB gene was obtained with a standard curve. When the VohB_Fw-VohB_Rv qPCR protocol was applied to Atlantic salmon seeded tissues (kidney, liver, spleen, and muscle), the detection limit ranged from 5.27 × 102 to 4.13 × 103 V. ordalii CFU ml-1, i.e. 62 to 145 copies of the vohB gene, using the previously calculated standard curve. The conventional PCR also detected V. ordalii, but the total reaction time was 1 h longer. When the qPCR protocol was applied to naturally infected cage-cultured Atlantic salmon samples, 5 of 8 fish tested positive for V. ordalii, but only one of them was diagnosed as positive by direct cultivation on agar. We conclude that the PCR protocol evaluated is fast, specific, and sensitive enough to detect V. ordalii in infected tissues and is an important tool for secure diagnosis of atypical vibriosis, and is therefore helpful for the control of the disease through the prompt detection within fish populations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The state of Santa Catarina in Brazil is a large producer of Perna perna mussels. However, raw and processed mussels have a short shelf life because of their high microbiological count, such as Vibrio spp. This study evaluated the microbiological and physicochemical quality of raw and ready-to-eat mussels and the quality of water and ice used in the processing of mussels. RESULTS The microbiological conditions of water and ice used in the processing are not in accordance with Brazilian legislation because of the presence of coliforms and Vibrio spp. For ready-to-eat mussels, counts of psychrophilic and psychrotrophic micro-organisms reached 10(5) colony-forming units g(-1) , a value close to the onset of product degradation during storage. Counts of coliforms, coagulase-positive Staphylococcus, Salmonella spp. and sulfite-reducing Clostridium in the mussels analysed during processing are in accordance with Brazilian law. The F value for the sterilisation procedure was lower than that required for Clostridium botulinum. CONCLUSION The study shows that microbiological cross-contamination occurred during the processing of mussels. Rigorous control is necessary from the production area of mussels to retailers. Good manufacturing practices must be implemented in the industry and cross-contamination avoided, mainly by Vibrio spp. after heat treatment.

Abstract
During two surveys conducted in 2008 and 2009, the culture method described in the international standard ISO/TS 21872-1 was applied to the detection of Vibrio parahaemolyticus and Vibrio cholerae in 112 living bivalve mollusc samples, with a chromogenic medium used in addition to the TCBS agar, as second selective isolation medium and for enumeration of V. parahaemolyticus and V. cholerae by surface inoculation. A PCR method for detection of these 2 Vibrio species and the hemolysin genes tdh and trh, was applied in parallel. In 2009, the survey was extended to finfish fillets and crustaceans. PCR was also used for species confirmation of characteristic colonies. The identity of the PCR products, specifically targeting V. parahaemolyticus, was checked by sequencing. Occurrence of V. parahaemolyticus and V. cholerae isolates in living bivalve molluscs ranged from 30.4% to 32.6% and from 1.4% to 4.7% respectively. In frozen crustaceans (2009 survey) V. parahaemolyticus and V. cholerae isolates were respectively found in 45% and 10% of the samples. No V. parahaemolyticus or V. cholerae was detected in frozen fish fillets, neither by the ISO method nor by PCR. In 2009, enteropathogenic V. parahaemolyticus (trh+) was isolated from 4 out of 43 oyster samples while the trh gene was present in V. alginolyticus strains and in samples where V. parahaemolyticus was not detected (9 over 112 samples). The ISO method failed to isolate V. parahaemolyticus in 44% to 53% of the living bivalve molluscs where PCR detected the toxR gene specific of V. parahaemolyticus (Vp-toxR). Our results highlighted the need for a revision of the ISO/TS 21872-1 standard, at least, for analysis of living bivalve molluscs, and confirmed the increasing concern of enteropathogenic V. parahaemolyticus in French bivalve molluscs. Enrichment at 41.5°C was questioned and some reliable solutions for the improvement of the ISO/TS 21872-1 method, such as the PCR method for screening of positive samples and confirmation of colonies, were pointed out.
