To establish a method for rapid detection of Vibrio parahaemolyticus producing thermostable direct haemolysin (TDH) by immunochromatography technology of the labeled magnetic fluorescent nanoparticles combined with antibody.Methods The gene fragment of Vibrio parahaemolyticus producing TDH was constructed and amplified. The product was ligated with plasmid vector (pET-28a) and expressed in Escherichia coli to prepare antibody. The antibody was conjugated with the labeled magnetic fluorescent nanoparticles to prepare an immunochromatographic test strip. The samples were mixed with different concentrations of standard strain and negative control samples respectively with the fluorescent nanoparticle-monoclonal antibody conjugate, incubated on the strip for 5 min, and observed with naked eyes under UV light.Experimental test was conducted for sensitivity, specificity, reproducibility and sample simulation.

The monoclonal antibody and the magnetic fluorescent particles were well coupled. The resulting conjugate was reacted with the lowest concentration at 10 CFU/ml positive strain, and the negative control strains had no reaction.
