Composed of - broth or - chemical composition, the electrode unit has a sensing end 'sensing end system $ s in the reaction tank i can be used for growth or adsorption of the schematic body attached to the electrode unit, and includes There is a voltage unit, a control unit and a reading unit. The money unit is connected to the electrode unit and supplies a voltage to the electrode unit it, and the jt is a fixed voltage or a variable voltage. The unit is connected to the voltage unit to control the voltage output value or the interval outputted to the electrode unit. The reading unit is coupled to the electrode unit to periodically read the electrochemical parameter change condition on the electrode unit, and the electrochemical parameters include the current value. , frequency value or impedance value. Another object of the present invention is to provide a method for detecting microorganisms or cells by using an electrode in a microbial or cell culture environment to detect a variable voltage and detect it. Measure the induced current change, or in the case of a specific voltage, and the composition of the medium contains components that induce electrolysis, by measuring changes in current, frequency or impedance induced during a certain period of time, to detect specific microorganisms or The purpose of the presence and overall number of cells, wherein the aforementioned voltage application time is continued for up to 12 hours, and is applied continuously or intermittently, and the voltage value of the variable voltage is between -50 and 50 volts. In the microbe or cell culture environment, there is a target microorganism (or cell) to be detected. Or the non-target microorganism (or cell) of its 201226896 his microbes, the changes sensed by the electrodes will also be different, for example (i) ^ when the cultured sputum contains a specific microorganism or cell to be tested, the electrode is detected The current, frequency or impedance value will continue to increase. For example, if the target microorganism rapidly produces a large amount of acid in the culture environment, the pH value of the culture environment will decrease rapidly, and thus the target microorganism will be caused. Deviation from the surface of the electrode, or the production of components harmful to the target microorganism (including microbial metabolites or electrolysis products, or a combination of both) causes destruction of the target microorganism, causing the cell material to flow out of the cell, thereby causing current, frequency φ or The impedance value changes significantly; if a fixed voltage pre-electrode is applied, a considerable current change will occur due to the electrochemical reaction; if a variable voltage is applied to the electrode, a considerable amount will be generated. The current peak can be distinguished and judged by the time when the change of the current is induced by the debt test or the time required to generate the current peak. Measuring the content of specific microorganisms in the sample, and thereby distinguishing the concentration of the target microorganism; (2) when the culture environment does not contain special microorganisms or cells, or the microorganisms or cells cannot grow in the culture environment, the electrodes are detected The current, frequency or impedance will be maintained at a constant state; (3) the non-target microorganisms in the culture environment, and the non-target microorganisms can also grow in this culture environment, and the microbial metabolism produces ion changes. It will only cause negligible changes in current, frequency or impedance 'but the non-target microbial cells will gradually adsorb to the electrode', causing the electrode interface capacitance to increase and hinder electron transfer, thus causing a slight increase in current, frequency or impedance. The situation of decline. In summary, according to the system and method of the present invention, the present invention combines the following reactions: (1) the microbial acid production causes the pH of the culture environment to decrease, thereby causing the change of the cell charge to cause the signal to change from the electrode, and (7) combining the low voltage. 201226896 The electric field and the specific medium composition make the specific components in the vicinity of the electrode cause the defects of specific microorganisms to cause the exudation of intracellular substances, which can quickly distinguish the concentration of specific microorganisms or cells or the total number of microorganisms or cells, and can be further simple and simple. Quickly detect and analyze the specific strain or cell, total bacterial count, or number of cells in the sample. [Embodiment] Hereinafter, a detection system and method for a microorganism or a cell of the present invention will be described by way of examples. Referring to FIG. 1, the detection system of the present invention comprises a reaction tank 1, an electrode unit 2, a main body 3 to be tested disposed in the reaction tank, and a processor 4' in which a supply subject to be tested is disposed in the reaction tank. Environment for growth This environment consists of a culture solution or a specific chemical component. The electrode unit has a sensing end. The sensing end is disposed in the reaction tank and can be used for growth or adsorption of the body to be tested. The unit includes a voltage unit, a control unit and a reading unit. The voltage unit is connected to the electrode unit and supplies a voltage to the electrode unit. The voltage is “fixed voltage or a variable electric dust, and the control unit is Connected to the voltage unit to control the output value or the area Fa1 of the output to the electrode unit. The reading unit (4) is coupled to the electrode unit to read the change of the electrochemical parameter on the electrode unit, and the electrochemical parameters include the current value and the frequency. Value or impedance value. In the embodiment in which the Escherichia coli is detected by the present invention, a microbial culture solution is added to the reaction tank using a flat, platinum electrode as an electrode, and the sodium sulphate sodium sulfate and (10) salt are added to the microbial culture solution: Selective agents such as gasification and slaves, and keep it as a Thunder, and a Thunder will be left with a "heart test value, under the condition of applying voltage to the electrode ^", the E. coli group will exhibit a negative charge 201226896 The state is thus moved toward the positive electrode of the electrode to be adsorbed on the surface of the electrode. When the number of microorganisms adsorbed to the electrode is increased, the current induced by the voltage unit being applied to the electrode unit is hindered by microbial adsorption and the micropod field is lowered. However, because E. coli can rapidly and in large quantities produce acidic substances in the environment of the culture medium, and the bacteria are converted into positively charged and separated from the surface of the electrode, the voltage is applied to electrochemically change the culture solution, and the electrolytic component is acidic. At pH (low pH), the multiplication will cause the C. cerevisiae to lyse and shed the cell product. In one embodiment, a cell is applied. When the voltage is φ and is scanned at a fixed rate, the current induced by the electrode is decreased due to the gradual adsorption of microorganisms in the initial culture for several hours. However, with the growth of Escherichia coli, the microorganism gradually deviates from the electrode and the bacteria are broken and the respiratory enzymes are discharged. With a large increase, the time required for the detection electrode to induce a current peak can be used to selectively detect the concentration of E. coli in the sample; in another embodiment, a fixed voltage is applied, and E. coli will generate a large current at a specific time. Ascending, the time required for the detection electrode to induce a current can be used to selectively detect the concentration of E. coli in the sample.

實施例一 在本實施例中,係說明在施與一可變電壓的情況下, 利用本發明的檢測系統及方法進行微生物的定性和定旦Embodiment 1 In this embodiment, the detection system and method of the present invention are used to perform qualitative and fixed determination of microorganisms under the application of a variable voltage.

本實施例中’係將-電極放置於-疑似具有大腸里桿菌 產氣菌株的肉桂酸胰化蛋白腺培養液asT_iauW tryPt〇Se broth)中’並給^該電極丨至_丨伏特的電壓值,以 每分鐘50毫伏特(mV/min)的掃描速率進行檢測,並記錄電 極上所發生的物理或化學性變化結果。 請參考第2圖所示 電極置入培養液時,因為菌體 201226896 在正常培養基環境下均帶負電’所以在一外加低壓電場 下’菌體便會順著正極方向移動並吸附於電極表面,以施 加之可變電壓而電壓以一固定速率掃描時,電極所誘發之 電流因微生物逐漸吸附而下降。 再請參考第3A至3C圖所示,當電極置入含大腸桿菌 (五.coh)之培養槽時之循環伏安圖譜’該循環伏安圖譜在培 養第3小時時,觀察到尖峰電流(標線7),其係由於大腸桿 菌表面出現損傷,而流出如細胞色素等電化學活性成份之 故。通入電壓時將因流出如細胞色素等電化學活性成份具 有傳導電子之作用而使電流變大,但由於流出如細胞色素 本身之氧化還原電位相當低,因此在通入可變電壓後因 此電極表面所誘發之電流將隨在細胞色素等在其氧化電位 之電壓時會有一相當大之電流變化,隨培養時間增加(如標 線8)’微生物會開始破裂並釋出大量細胞成份至培養環^ 中’而導致電流大幅變化。藉由本發明之方法所得之電壓 電流變化圖譜可以藉由偵測低電壓誘發之大幅電流變化, 即可區別並判定所偵測之微生物是為大腸桿菌或非大腸桿 菌。並進-步由线電流產生時間之快慢,決定大腸桿菌 之濃度,若非大腸桿菌培養基僅因微生物代謝產生離子濃 度變化,因此僅獲得些微的誘發電流,藉由本發明之方法 所得之循環伏安圖譜法,可鑑定為樣品中是否含有大腸桿 菌。 實施例 在本實施例中’係說明在施與__定電壓(例如幻伏)的 情況下’利用本發明的檢測系統及方法進行微生物的定姓 201226896 和定量。 本實施例與實施例一大致相同,其最大的差別在於本 實施例中係施加一定電壓於電極上,請參考第4圖所示, 其中標線9表示培養液中含有大腸桿g之電流變化曲線, 標線ίο纟示培養液中不含有大腸桿菌但是還有產氣桿菌 之電流變化曲線,另外,若是在培養液中添 加不同菌種,例如沙門氏菌、酵母菌、枯草桿菌、鏈黴菌、 礼酸桿菌時’電極所檢測到的電流並不會有顯著改變,因 此本發明方法確實對於不同菌種具有鑑別的能力。 實施例三 若是將本發明方法與一般平板計數法(plate count)相 較,可以得到如下表1之結果。 表1、數法和本發明方法之計數結果比較表 平板計數法 本發明方法 --(單位:每毫升的菌落生成單位對數傕) 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1.7 2.3 4.35 4.16 4.98 5.0 5.06 5.0 5.00 5.0In the present embodiment, 'the electrode is placed in the cinnamic acid-suppressing protein gland culture medium asT_iauW tryPt〇Sebroth which is suspected to have a strain of Escherichia coli and the voltage is 丨 丨 丨 volt. The detection was performed at a scan rate of 50 millivolts per minute (mV/min) and the results of physical or chemical changes occurring on the electrodes were recorded. Please refer to the electrode shown in Figure 2 when the culture solution is placed, because the cell body 201226896 is negatively charged in the normal medium environment, so the bacteria will move along the positive electrode direction and adsorb on the electrode surface under a low voltage electric field. When the voltage is applied at a fixed rate with a variable voltage applied, the current induced by the electrode is lowered by the gradual adsorption of microorganisms. Referring again to Figures 3A to 3C, the cyclic voltammogram of the electrode when placed in a culture tank containing Escherichia coli (f. coh). The cyclic voltammogram was observed at the 3rd hour of culture, and a peak current was observed ( Marking line 7), which is due to the damage of the surface of E. coli, flows out of electrochemically active components such as cytochromes. When the voltage is applied, the current is increased by the action of the electron-active component such as cytochrome. However, since the redox potential of the cytochrome itself is relatively low, the electrode is supplied after the variable voltage is applied. The current induced by the surface will change with a considerable current when the cytochrome or the like is at the voltage of its oxidation potential. As the culture time increases (such as the line 8), the microorganism will begin to rupture and release a large amount of cellular components to the culture ring. ^中' causes a large change in current. The voltage-current variation map obtained by the method of the present invention can distinguish and determine whether the detected microorganism is Escherichia coli or Escherichia coli by detecting a large current change induced by a low voltage. The progress of the step-by-step line current determines the concentration of E. coli. If the E. coli culture medium only changes the ion concentration due to microbial metabolism, only a slight induced current is obtained, and the cyclic voltammetry method obtained by the method of the present invention is used. Can be identified as whether the sample contains E. coli. EXAMPLES In the present embodiment, the description of the microorganisms was carried out using the detection system and method of the present invention in the case where a predetermined voltage (e.g., illusion) was applied. This embodiment is substantially the same as the first embodiment, and the biggest difference is that in the present embodiment, a certain voltage is applied to the electrode, please refer to FIG. 4, wherein the line 9 indicates the current change of the large intestine rod g in the culture solution. Curve, the line ίο纟 shows the current curve of E. coli but not A. coli in the culture solution. In addition, if different strains are added to the culture solution, such as Salmonella, yeast, Bacillus subtilis, Streptomyces, and In the case of acid bacilli, the current detected by the electrode does not change significantly, so the method of the present invention does have the ability to identify different species.

In summary, most of the traditional detection methods require individual incubation tests for specific strains after a certain period of incubation, all of which take at least 48 hours to know that the test results are negative, to confirm positive The reaction 'may take another 7-10 days of time. # θ . ^ (3) days, if it is in a solid medium, it is also necessary to culture for 24-48 hours, then camping or coloring method to carry out E. coli The positive judgment is quite labor-intensive and time-consuming; while the conventional conductivity detection method uses the change of the ion concentration caused by the microbial metabolism to induce the change of the conductivity to detect the microorganism, when the number of bacteria needs to reach 1〇6 (unit generation number/ml). There will be a large signal change, but it can only detect the concentration of microorganisms, and cannot determine the type of microorganisms. The test results will also be affected by the culture. The invention can rapidly and accurately detect the concentration of Escherichia coli and the large intestine rod g by applying electrolysis and adjusting the culture component to cause the microorganism to grow and rupture and signal conversion at a specific stage, which is not only selective than the system of conductive detection and the like. Moreover, the detection time is shortened, and the method of the present invention does not require the addition of an electron transport medium or a substance that induces the generation of an electron transport medium to complete the detection in the past current sensing system, and does not resemble the past method, and cannot distinguish the gut g. In addition to other microorganisms, in addition, the method according to the invention can be quickly determined, has high sensitivity, is cost-effective, and has advantages and is not as labor-intensive and time-consuming as the 201226896 method.
