Development and Multicentric Validation of a Lateral Flow Immunoassay for Rapid Detection of MCR-1-Producing Enterobacteriaceae.

ABSTRACT: Colistin has become a last-resort antibiotic for the treatment of infections caused by highly drug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria. Moreover, it has been widely used in the livestock sector. As a consequence, colistin resistance is emerging worldwide. Among the colistin resistance mechanisms, the spread of the plasmid-encoded colistin resistance gene mcr-1 (mostly in Escherichia coli) is of particular concern due to its increased transferability compared to that of chromosome-encoded resistance. The early detection of MCR-1-producing bacteria is essential to prevent further spread and provide appropriate antimicrobial therapy. Lateral flow immunoassays (LFIAs) were manufactured with selected monoclonal antibodies. A collection of 177 human and 121 animal enterobacterial isolates was tested in a multicentric study. One bacterial colony grown on agar plates was suspended in extraction buffer and dispensed on the cassette. Migration was allowed for 15?min, and the results were monitored by the appearance of a specific band. The positive results showed a pink line resulting in an unambiguous interpretation. All MCR-1-producing isolates were found to be positive by the LFIA, and no false-negative results were observed. Three out of four MCR-2-producing isolates were also found to be positive. Our test does not detect MCR-3-, MCR-4-, or MCR-5-producing isolates. LFIA allows the detection of MCR-1 with 100% sensitivity and 98% specificity. This test is fast, sensitive, specific, easy to use, and cost-effective and can therefore be implemented in any microbiology laboratory worldwide. LFIA is a major tool for the rapid detection and monitoring of MCR-1 producers in humans and animals.

Project description:Grapevine leafroll-associated virus 3 (GLRaV-3) is one of the main pathogens of grapes, causing a significant loss in yield and decrease in quality for this agricultural plant. For efficient widespread control of this infection, rapid and simple analytical techniques of on-site testing are requested as a complementary addition for the currently applied hybridization (PCR) and immunoenzyme (ELISA) approaches. The given paper presents development and approbation of the immunochromatographic assay (ICA) for rapid detection of GLRaV-3. The ICA realizes a sandwich immunoassay format with the obtaining complexes ((antibody immobilized on immunochromatographic membrane)⁻(virus in the sample)⁻(antibody immobilized on gold nanoparticles (GNP)) during sample flow along the membrane compounds of the test strip. Three preparations of GNPs were compared for detection of GLRaV-3 at different dilutions of virus-containing sample. The GNPs with maximal average diameters of 51.0 ± 7.9 nm provide GLRaV-3 detection for its maximal dilutions, being 4 times more than when using GNPs with a diameter of 28.3 ± 3.3 nm, and 8 times more than when using GNPs with a diameter of 18.5 ± 3.3 nm. Test strips have been manufactured using the largest GNPs conjugated with anti-GLRaV-3 antibodies at a ratio of 1070:1. When testing samples containing other grape wine viruses, the test strips have not demonstrated staining in the test zone, which confirms the ICA specificity. The approbation of the manufactured test strips indicated that when using ELISA as a reference method, the developed ICA is characterized by a sensitivity of 100% and a specificity of 92%. If PCR is considered as a reference method, then the sensitivity of ICA is 93% and the specificity is 92%. The proposed ICA can be implemented in one stage without the use of any additional reactants or devices. The testing results can be obtained in 10 min and detected visually. It provides significant improvement in GLRaV-3 detection, and the presented approach can be transferred for the development of test systems for other grape wine pathogens.
