    Journal: Food Chem; 2013 Dec 01; 141(3):1980-6. PubMed ID: 23870918.
    Abstract:
    A sensitive and stable label-free electrochemical impedance immunosensor for the detection of Salmonella typhimurium was developed by immobilising anti-Salmonella antibodies onto the gold nanoparticles and poly(amidoamine)-multiwalled carbon nanotubes-chitosan nanocomposite film modified glassy carbon electrode (AuNPs/PAMAM-MWCNT-Chi/GCE). Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and cyclic voltammetry (CV) were used to verify the stepwise assembly of the immunosensor. Co-addition of MWCNT, PAMAM and AuNPs greatly enhanced the sensitivity of the immunosensor. The immobilisation of antibodies and the binding of Salmonella cells to the modified electrode increased the electron-transfer resistance (Ret), which was directly measured with EIS using [Fe(CN)6](3-/4-) as a redox probe. A linear relationship of Ret and Salmonella concentration was obtained in the Salmonella concentration range of 1.0×10(3) to 1.0×10(7) CFU mL(-1) with a detection limit of 5.0×10(2) CFU mL(-1). Additionally, the proposed method was successfully applied to determine S. typhimurium content in milk samples with satisfactory results.
