Escherichia coli is an important pathogen of nosocomial infection in clin. research, Thus, exploring new methods for the rapid detection of this pathogen is urgent. We reported the early release of mol. volatile indole vapor of E. coli cultures and blood cultures analyzed by direct atm. corona discharge ionization mass spectrometry (CDI-MS). The concentration of indole in E. coli cultures remarkably increases during the early log and lag phases of bacterial growth, thereby enabling early detection. Tech. replicates were cultivated for 3 days for reference diagnosis using current conventional bacteremia detection. A reference MS screen of common microbes from other genera confirmed that the peaks at m/z 116 signal corresponded to indole were specifically present in E. coli. Our results indicated that volatile indole based on CDI-MS without the need for any sample pretreatment is highly suitable for the reliable and cost-efficient differentiation of E. coli, especially for bacteremia in humans. The experimental process involved the reaction of 1H-Indole(cas: 120-72-9SDS of cas: 120-72-9)
1H-Indole(cas: 120-72-9) belongs to indole. Indole, also called Benzopyrrole, a heterocyclic organic compound occurring in some flower oils, such as jasmine and orange blossom, in coal tar, and in fecal matter. It is used in perfumery and in making tryptophan, an essential amino acid, and indoleacetic acid (heteroauxin), a hormone that promotes the development of roots in plant cuttings.SDS of cas: 120-72-9
