沙門桿菌菌株(Salmonella strains)是一群革蘭氏陰性的兼性厭氧菌(gram-negative facultative anaerobic bacteria),它們普遍存在於人類與動物的體內或者食物與環境中。沙門桿菌屬主要包含有腸道沙門桿菌(Salmonella enterica)以及邦戈爾沙門桿菌(Salmonella bongori)這2種物種,其中腸道沙門桿菌可被區分為6種亞種(subspecies),而邦戈爾沙門桿菌可被區分為1種亞種。這些沙門桿菌屬亞種(Salmonella subspecies)可依據體質抗原(somatic antigen)[亦即O抗原(O antigen)]的表現差異而被區分為不同的血清群(serogroup),而各個血清群又可依據鞭毛抗原(flagellar antigen)[亦即H抗原(H antigen)]的表現差異而被進一步區分為不同的血清型(serotype)。 Salmonella strains are a group of gram-negative facultative anaerobic bacteria that are ubiquitous in humans and animals or in food and the environment. Salmonella mainly contains two species, Salmonella enterica and Salmonella bongori , in which Salmonella enterica can be divided into six subspecies, and Bangor Salmonella can be divided into one subspecies. These Salmonella subspecies can be distinguished into different serogroups according to the difference in the performance of somatic antigens (ie, O antigens), and each serogroup can be based on The difference in expression of the flagellar antigen [ie, H antigen] is further differentiated into different serotypes.

會感染人類與動物的沙門桿菌菌株大多是屬於腸道沙門桿菌,而其中較為常見者是下列的腸道沙門桿菌血清型(Salmonella enterica serovars):腸道沙門桿菌腸道亞種鼠傷寒血清型(S.enterica subsp.enterica ser.Typhimurium)[亦被簡稱為鼠傷寒沙門桿菌(Salmonella Typhimurium)]、腸道沙 門桿菌腸道亞種腸炎血清型(S.enterica subsp.enterica ser.Enteritidis)[亦被簡稱為腸炎沙門桿菌(Salmonella Enteritidis)]、腸道沙門桿菌腸道亞種哈達爾血清型(S.enterica subsp.enterica ser.Hadar)[亦被簡稱為哈達爾沙門桿菌(Salmonella Hadar)]、腸道沙門桿菌腸道亞種嬰兒型血清型(S.enterica subsp.enterica ser.Infantis)[亦被簡稱為嬰兒型沙門桿菌(Salmonella Infantis)]以及腸道沙門桿菌腸道亞種維爾肖氏血清型(S.enterica subsp.enterica ser.Virchow)[亦被簡稱為維爾肖氏沙門桿菌(Salmonella Virchow)]等。 Most of the Salmonella strains that infect humans and animals belong to Salmonella enterica , and the more common ones are Salmonella enterica serovars: Salmonella enteric serovar serotypes S. enterica subsp. enterica ser. Typhimurium) [also referred to as Salmonella Typhimurium], Salmonella enterica subsp. entericidal serotype ( S. enterica subsp. enterica ser. Enteritidis) [also Abbreviated as Salmonella Enteritidis, S. enterica subsp. enterica ser.

Infantis) [also referred to as Salmonella Infantis] and Salmonella enterica subsp. ( S. enterica subsp. enterica ser. Virchow) [also referred to as Salmonella Virchow].

腸道沙門桿菌是一種呈桿狀(rod-shaped)的腸內細菌(enterobacteria),當人類攝入受到此種細菌汙染的食品[例如生肉(raw meat)、生鮮產品(fresh produce)、加工肉(processed meat)、果汁以及乳製品(dairy product)]時,會引起傷寒熱(typhoid fever)、副傷寒熱(paratyphoid fever)以及食物媒介疾病(food-borne illness)[諸如沙門桿菌病(salmonellosis)]等。帶有沙門桿菌病的病患通常會產生急性腸結腸炎伴隨突發的頭痛(acute enterocolitis with sudden onset of headache)、腹痛(abdominal pain)、腹瀉(diarrhea)、噁心(nausea)以及嘔吐(vomiting)等臨床症狀(clinical symptom),嚴重者甚至會出現敗血症(septicemia)或死亡。 Salmonella enterica is a rod-shaped enterobacteria that when humans ingest food contaminated with such bacteria [eg raw meat, fresh produce, processed meat) (processed meat), fruit juice, and dairy product, can cause typhoid fever, paratyphoid fever, and food-borne illness [such as salmonellosis). ]Wait. Patients with Salmonella disease usually develop acute enterocolitis with sudden onset of headache, abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting. Such as clinical symptoms, severe cases may even have septicemia or death.

由於腸道沙門桿菌已嚴重地威脅到人類的健康並且造成畜牧業以及食品業的損失,因此,如何早期且快速地檢測出這些腸道沙門桿菌即成為本技術領域的研究人員關注 與研究的重點。 Since Salmonella enterica has seriously threatened human health and caused losses in the livestock and food industries, how to detect these intestinal Salmonella early and quickly becomes a concern of researchers in the technical field.

為了克服傳統的菌株培養與菌學特徵鑑定[例如,革蘭氏染色(gram staining)、API鑑定系統、血清分型(serotyping)、生理或生化特徵鑑定、抗生素耐受性試驗等]在操作過程上較為繁複且耗時之缺點,目前有許多分子生物學方法已被應用於檢測各種沙門桿菌菌株。這些生物學方法包括:聚合酶鏈反應(polymerase chain reaction,PCR)、脈衝電場凝膠電泳(pulse-field gel electrophoresis,PFGE)、多重聚合酶鏈反應(multiplex polymerase chain reaction)、隨機擴增的多型性DNA(Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA,RAPD)、限制片段長度多型性分析(Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism,RFLP)、免疫分析法(Immunoassay method)、DNA探針分析法(DNA probe method)以及生物晶片(biochip)等。 In order to overcome the traditional strain culture and bacteriological characterization [eg, gram staining, API identification system, serotyping, physiological or biochemical characterization, antibiotic tolerance test, etc.] in the operation process On the more complicated and time-consuming drawbacks, many molecular biology methods have been applied to detect various strains of Salmonella. These biological methods include: polymerase chain reaction (PCR), pulse-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE), multiplex polymerase chain reaction, random amplification Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD), Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP), Immunoassay method, DNA probe method, and biochip ( Biochip) and so on.

近年來,生物晶片技術的發展已逐漸受到重視並且已被廣泛地應用於各種病原菌(pathogen)的檢測、癌症的分類、新藥的研發以及基因的定序與鑑定等等。生物晶片的優點包括:體積小、分析結果的可信度與精確性較高、分析速度快,以及使用較少的樣品與試劑即可獲得整體性的實驗數據。生物晶片依據其功能性可被區分為下面四大類:(1)基因晶片(gene chip),亦被稱為微陣列晶片(microarray chip);(2)微流體晶片(microfluidic chip);(3)蛋白質晶片(protein chip);以及(4)晶片實驗室(Lab-on-a-chip)。 In recent years, the development of biochip technology has been gradually taken into consideration and has been widely used in the detection of various pathogens, the classification of cancer, the development of new drugs, and the sequencing and identification of genes. Advantages of biochips include: small size, high confidence and accuracy of analytical results, fast analysis, and versatile experimental data with fewer samples and reagents. Biochips can be classified into the following four categories according to their functionality: (1) gene chip, also known as microarray chip; (2) microfluidic chip; (3) Protein chip; and (4) Lab-on-a-chip.

另一方面,維爾肖氏沙門桿菌的基因組(genome)至今尚未被完全地定序,而依據申請人先前的研究發現:嬰兒型沙門桿菌的完整基因組當中的核苷酸殘基位置3710138至3713529處與維爾肖氏沙門桿菌所具者具有高度的序列相似性。因此,申請人針對上述的嬰兒型沙門桿菌的完整基因組的核苷酸序列而設計出一組Univer-F引子(序列辨識編號:1)與Univer-R引子(序列辨識編號:2),繼而使用維爾肖氏沙門桿菌CA08.158的基因組DNA作為模版(template)來進行聚合酶鏈反應(PCR)。之後,藉由瓊脂糖凝膠電泳(agarose gel electrophoresis)來進行分析而發現到:維爾肖氏沙門桿菌有得到2個大小分別約為3000 bp以及500 bp的PCR產物。 On the other hand, the genome of Salmonella vilson has not yet been completely sequenced, and according to previous studies by the applicant, the nucleotide residues in the complete genome of Salmonella typhimurium are located at positions 3710138 to 3713529. It has a high degree of sequence similarity to those of Salmonella. Therefore, the applicant designed a set of Univer-F primers (SEQ ID NO: 1) and Univer-R primer (SEQ ID NO: 2) for the nucleotide sequence of the complete genome of the above-described Salmonella typhimurium, and then used The genomic DNA of Salmonella vilsona CA08.158 was used as a template for polymerase chain reaction (PCR).

接著,該大小約為500 bp的維爾肖氏沙門桿菌的PCR產物經由定序分析結果顯示:它包含有一大小為341 bp且具有如序列辨識編號:3所示之核苷酸序列的DNA片段。然後,使用BLAST軟體(http://blast.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/)而將該經定序的DNA片段的核苷酸序列(序列辨識編號:3)拿來與上述嬰兒型沙門桿菌的完整基因組當中的的核苷酸序列進 行比對分析。所得到的比對結果顯示:該維爾肖氏沙門桿菌的DNA片段大體上可對應於該嬰兒型沙門桿菌的完整基因組當中的核苷酸殘基位置3713150至3713480處,其中該DNA片段與該核苷酸殘基位置3713251至3713480處的核苷酸序列具有高度相似性,但是與該核苷酸殘基位置3713150至3713250處的核苷酸序列則具有較高的變異性(參見圖1)。因此,申請人依據該DNA片段而設計出2組對於維爾肖氏沙門桿菌具有血清型-特異性的引子對VIRC1F/InViR與VIRC2F/InViR。有關上述針對3種腸道沙門桿菌血清型而設計出的5組血清型-特異性引子對所具有的核苷酸序列分別被彙整於表2中。 Next, the PCR product of Salmonella vilsonii having a size of about 500 bp showed by sequencing analysis that it contained a DNA fragment of 341 bp in size and having the nucleotide sequence as shown in SEQ ID NO: 3. Then, using the BLAST software (http://blast.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/), the nucleotide sequence of the sequenced DNA fragment (SEQ ID NO: 3) is taken with the above-described Salmonella typhimurium Nucleotide sequence in the complete genome Line alignment analysis. The obtained alignment result shows that the DNA fragment of Salmonella wilsonii can substantially correspond to the nucleotide residue position 3713150 to 3713480 in the complete genome of the infant type Salmonella, wherein the DNA fragment and the nucleus The nucleotide sequence at position 3,731,251 to 3,713,480 of the nucleotide residue has a high degree of similarity, but has a higher variability with the nucleotide sequence at position 3713150 to 3713250 of the nucleotide residue (see Fig. 1). Therefore, Applicants designed two sets of primer pairs VIRC1F/InViR and VIRC2F/InViR which are serotype-specific for Salmonella vilson according to the DNA fragment.
