description | A significant number of research papers regarding biosensor-related assays for key food safety pathogens based on the use of mammalian cells has been reported. In this study, the <i>Salmonella typhimurium</i> infection progression was monitored in the human colon cancer cell line Caco-2 and the mucus-secreting HT29-MTX-E12, after treatment with five different bacterial MOI for 30 min by comparing the alterations of frequencies recordings with impedance spectroscopy measurements. For this purpose, bacterial adhesion and invasion assays were initially performed. Then, the data obtained from impedance spectroscopy recordings were compared to cell viability data derived from the MTT uptake cell proliferation assay as well as from live cell analysis assays of mitochondrial membrane potential alterations. From our findings a concentration-dependent increase in bacterial colonies occurring from invaded cells was observed upon a higher multiplicity of infection (MOI) bacterial infection at both cell lines. On the contrary, the bacteria infection did not have any impact on the viability of the cells after 1 h of treatment. Differential results were obtained from the measurement of mitochondrial potential at both cell lines. Finally, the impedance values recorded from the 2D, and 3D cultures were concentration-dependent for both cell lines whereas a characteristic pattern specific to each cell line was revealed. Our results indicate that human cell-based bio-electric assays can be a valuable tool for obtaining a unique fingerprint for each bacterial infection in the near future. |
