From: Highly specific fiber optic immunosensor coupled with immunomagnetic separation for detection of low levels of Listeria monocytogenes and L. ivanovii

Figure 7

Determination of specificity (a, b) and detection limit (c, d) of the fiber-optic sensor using MAb-2D12 (InlA) or MAb-3F8 (p30) as capture antibody and Cy5-conjugated anti-InlA MAb-2D12 as a reporter against (a) Listeria spp. and (b) other bacteria. Culture concentrations were 108 CFU/mL (or ~106 CFU/mL for mixed-culture experiments). Detection limit of the fiber-optic sensor using (c) MAb-2D12 and (d) MAb-3F8 as capture and MAb-2D12 as a reporter against different concentrations of L. monocytogenes or L. ivanovii. Signals (pA) are the mean of three fibers at 30 s.
