Definitions

  • Red tide refers to blooms where a certain microalgae types, either toxic or non-toxic, generate a red or brown color in ocean waters. Red tide related microalgae have been largely associated with the production of high levels of neurotoxins which are detrimental to human health
  • each cell can be used as a biological computer, capable of analyzing its close environment or its own functions, and then add logical gates that will allow the biological entity to translate the information it has gathered to a possible user, mimicking a digital user interface. This is the base of the biosensors described in the present invention.
  • biosensor refers merely to a device capable of sensing a certain characteristic within a biological medium. This biosensor's functions are then limited to measuring physical and chemical changes which harbor a biological application.
  • the concept of biosensor is broadened and is understood as a device that results from the combination of biological or synthetic parts within a base biological or synthetic entity. The resulting device is capable, through the biological or synthetic parts therein contained, of receiving a certain input signal from its environment, processing this information and then providing a certain output related to it. This allows the device to provide certain analytical information, be it quantitative or qualitative about for example the presence, absence or concentration of a target metabolite that the device is capable of recognizing.
  • the method described therein includes incubating a plurality of mouse neuroblastoma cells, which are responsive in a dose-dependent manner to sodium channel-activating toxins, with a medium comprising a solution of ouabain and veratridine, and a portion of the fluid sample to be analyzed. Following this, different additional stages are required to remove the medium and the fluid sample, and to incubate the cell cultures with an indicator which is acted upon by living cells to form a measurable product.
  • the US patent method is different to the present invention because in addition to only treating higher mammalian cell cultures with the potentially toxin-containing medium, said method forcedly requires an additional stage with an indicator to obtain a response with a measureable product to the presence of the toxin.
  • the present invention only requires any genetically modified cell or microorganism to contact the potentially toxin-containing medium, which can then provide a detection result within 24 hours.
  • US patent application 20030108980 A1 refers to bioluminescent methods for direct visual detection of environmental compounds.
  • This application relates to devices and methods that utilize immobilized bacteria that act as genetically modified bioreporters capable of emitting visible light to the naked eye in the presence of selected analytes.
  • This patent application exemplifies one of its practical embodiments as an E. coli strain modified through the incorporation of a merRop/lux gene cassette into its genome.
  • the present invention is not limited to the detection of certain selected analytes.
  • the present invention incorporates metabolic routes and different stages to provide a response to the user.
  • Jellett Rapid Testing now Scotia Rapid Testing (www.iellett.ca). provides three commercial tests for three toxic groups: ASP, DSP and PSP. The tests are qualitative ('yes or no' response) and are based on immunoassay techniques, which allow them to recognize very specific conformations of toxin strands, therefore leading to a considerable amount of false negative results.
  • the tests require three steps: preparing the sample (which usually entails grinding the mollusk tissue), preparing the extract (through a chemical extraction process, converting ground shellfish into a liquid form) and finally applying the test itself. The final stage takes between 35 minutes and 1 hour. These tests include a positive control, are single-use, have a shelf life of one year and may be stored between 4 and 25°C.
  • Abraxis Kits provides ELISA-like tests for marine biotoxin testing. It is described as an enzyme-linked immunoabsorbent assay for the detection of PSP/DSP (+) in water and contaminated samples. It allows for both quantitative and qualitative detection. For meat testing, it requires extra preparation stages. The testing stage takes about an hour, and requires pipetting and other basic laboratory techniques. It produces a colored signal (blue) which is inversely proportional to the content of toxin in the sample. The color reaction must be stopped and evaluated using an ELISA plate reader, and the final concentration of the samples is determined by interpolating the data using a standard curve constructed with each run. This test must be used in temperatures between 10-30°C, stored in refrigerators (4-8°C) and the associated solutions must be at room temperature (20-25°C) before use.
  • the method and biosensor system of the present invention are not based on a structural detection of the toxins or their toxic metabolites. Instead, they rely on the toxicological effect produced by said metabolites in at least one genetically modified cell. Given the concatenation of the stages of the method, the present invention allows the measurement of the toxicity itself as opposed to that of a specific toxin structure.
  • the inventors of the present invention utilizing tools of synthetic biology, have designed and constructed a biosensor system comprising concatenated metabolic routes that confers to a number of microbial, neuronal or cardiovascular cell, among others the capacity to sense the amount of toxin present in its medium.
