Abstract:
... The aim of this paper was to demonstrate a rapid and selective fluorescence-linked immunoassay method based on quantum dots as the fluorescent marker for the detection of Salmonella Enteritidis on eggshell. Highly-fluorescent and water-soluble CdTe quantum dots were prepared by using thioglycolic acid and 1-thioglycerol as ligands and were then conjugated with anti-Salmonella antibodies. As a resu ...

Abstract:
... Listeria is represented by ten known species, comprising pathogenic and non-pathogenic variants. Listeria monocytogenes is the type species and is primarily pathogenic to humans and causes serious illness. As a result, most countries have a zero tolerance towards the presence of Listeria in foods. Therefore, in order to ensure food safety, robust techniques for detection are required. This paper d ...
