Detection and Categorization of Diarrheagenic Escherichia coli with Auto-microfluidic Thin-film Chip Method.

ABSTRACT: Diarrheagenic Escherichia coli (DEC) causes human diarrhea symptom in both healthy and immunocompromised individuals. An auto-microfluidic thin-film chip (AMTC) instrument integrating one-step multiplex PCR (mPCR) with reverse dot blot hybridization (RDBH) was developed for high-throughput detection of DEC. The novel mPCR method was developed by designing 14 specific primers and corresponding probes. 14 indexes including an endogenous gene (uidA) and 13 pathogenic genes (stx1, stx2, escV, ipaH, invE, estB, lt, pic, aggR, astA, bfpB, sth and stp) of DEC were detected. This one-step mPCR?+?RDBH approach is useful for simultaneous detection of numerous target genes in a single sample, whose specificity and availability have been confirmed on the positive control of 11 DEC strains. In addition, with 300 diarrheal stool samples being detected by this method, 21 were found to contain five major DEC strains. Compared with monoplex PCR and previous one-step mPCR approach, this method could detect ipaH and estB, and compared with current commercial kit, the relevance ratio of DEC detected by the AMTC method was increased by 1% in stool samples. Furthermore, the novel integration AMTC device could be a valuable detection tool for categorization of E. coli.

Project description:The rapid and accurate diagnostic methods to identify carbapenemase-producing organisms (CPO) is of great importance for controlling the CPO infection. Herein, we have developed a microfluidic chip-based technique to detect CPO and assessed its clinical value in detecting CPO directly from blood cultures (BCs). The detection performance of the microfluidic chip-based LAMP amplification method was analyzed retrospectively on a collection of 192 isolates including molecularly characterized 108 CPO and 84 non-CPO and prospectively on a collection of 133 positive BCs with or without CPO suspicion, respectively. In the retrospective study, the microfluidic chip-based LAMP amplification method exhibited 87.5% accuracy (95% CI [82.0-91.5]), 97.7% sensitivity (95% CI [91.2-99.6]), 78.8% specificity (95% CI [69.5-86.0]), 79.6% positive predictive value (PPV) (95% CI [70.6-86.5]) and 97.6% negative predictive value (NPV) (95% CI [90.9-99.6]). Among the 192 isolates, 22 (11.5%) false-positives (FP) and 2 (1.0%) false negatives (FN) were observed. In the prospective study, the 133 routine isolates of positive BCs including 18 meropenem-resistant CPO and 115 non-CPO were assessed, and 4 FP were observed in non-CPO and CPO, respectively. The current method showed a total detection performance of 94.0% accuracy (95% CI [88.4-97.1]), 100.0% sensitivity (95% CI [73.2-100.0]), 93.2% specificity (95% CI [86.7-96.8]), 63.6% PPV (95% CI [40.8-82.0]) and 100.0% NPV (95% CI [95.8-100.0]). In summary, the microfluidic chip-based LAMP amplification method is reliable for the rapid screening and detection of CPO with high accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity, and could easily be implemented in clinical microbiology laboratories. IMPORTANCE Rapid and accurate identification of CPO may reduce the genetic exchanges among bacteria and prevent further dissemination of carbapenemases to non-CPO. The current method had designed microfluidic chip-based LAMP amplification method for multiplex detection of carbapenemase genes and evaluated the detection performance of the newly method. The current method can rapidly screen and detect CPO with high accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity, and could easily be implemented in clinical microbiology laboratories, as this will reduce the carbapenem resistance issues worldwide.
