Characterization of the pathogen enrichment process using APTES-DE. (a) Experimental pathogen enrichment procedure. (b–c) Optimized protocols for enrichment were demonstrated using qRT-PCR with serially diluted concentrations of DE (b) and at varying incubation times (c). (d) Parallel experiments comparing the performances of the APTES-DE assay and a commercial kit with a series of cell concentrations; inset, linear relationship of both approaches between cycle threshold (Ct) and concentrations of pathogen. Bars extended to a negative control (NTC) line here means no amplification signals.
