摘要
The biochemical identification and enumeration of Vibrio parahaemolyticus as described in the FDA Bacteriological Analytical Manual is expensive and labour-intensive. To reduce fort necessary to verify the identity of V. parahaemolyticus, the use of a thermolabile haemolysin (tlh) gene probe is proposed. An alkaline phosphatase (AP)-labelled probe was evaluated for specificity against 26 strains of V: parahaemolyticus, 88 strains of other Vibrio species and 10 strains of non-vibrio io species, tested, the probe hybridized only with the 26 strains of V. parahaemolyticus, indicating species specificity. Two hundred and six suspect V. parahaemolyticus isolates from oysters were tested by this probe and API-20E diagnostic strips, there there 97% agreement between results, A digoxigenin (DIG)labelled probe for detection of the tlh gene fragment was prepared by PCR and compared with the AP-labelled probe. When tested on 584 suspect V. parahaemolyticus results obtained with the AP- and DIG-labelled probes, were in 98% agreement. These results suggest that the probes are equivalent for detection of the V. parahaemolyticus tlh gene.
