description | Burkholderia cepacia complex (BCC) contamination has resulted in recalls of non-sterile pharmaceutical products. The fast, sensitive, and specific detection of BCC is critical for ensuring the quality and safety of pharmaceutical products. In this study, a rapid flow cytometry-based detection method was developed using a fluorescence-labeled oligonucleotide Kef probe that specifically binds a KefB/KefC membrane protein sequence within BCC. Optimal conditions of a 1 nM Kef probe concentration at a 60 °C hybridization temperature for 30 min were determined and applied for the flow cytometry assay. The true-positive rate (sensitivity) and true-negative rate (specificity) of the Kef probe assay were 90% (18 positive out of 20 BCC species) and 88.9% (16 negative out of 18 non-BCC), respectively. The detection limit for B. cenocepacia AU1054 with the Kef probe flow cytometry assay in nuclease-free water was 1 CFU/mL. The average cell counts using the Kef probe assay from a concentration of 10 μg/mL chlorhexidine gluconate and 50 μg/mL benzalkonium chloride were similar to those of the RAPID-B total plate count (TPC). We demonstrate the potential of Kef probe flow cytometry as a more sensitive alternative to culture-based methods for detecting BCC in non-sterilized pharmaceutical raw materials and products with regards to water-based environments. |
