Abstract

Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa) are major pathogens frequently detected in food and beverage poisoning, and persistent infections. Therefore, the development of a rapid method that can detect these pathogens before serious multiplication is required. In this study, we established a flow cytometry (FCM)-based detection method that allows rapid acquisition of cell populations in fluid samples by using a fluorescent antibody against S. aureus or P. aeruginosa. Using this method, we detected these pathogens with a 103 to 105 CFU order of limit of detection value within 1 hour. The FCM-based method for the detection of S. aureus and P. aeruginosa offers the possibility of high-throughput analysis of pathogens in food, environmental, and clinical sources.
