Autoinducer-2 (AI-2), as a small-molecular-weight organic molecule secreted and perceived by various bacteria, enables intra- and inter-species communications. Quantitative determination of AI-2 is essential for exploring the bacterial AI-2-related physiological and biochemical processes. However, current strategies for sensitive detection of AI-2 require sophisticated instruments and complicated procedures. In this work, on the basis of the derivatization of AI-2 with 2,3-diaminonaphthalene, a simple, sensitive and cost-effective high-performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detector (HPLC-FLD) method is developed for the quantitative detection of AI-2. Under the optimized conditions, this method had a broad linear range of 10-14,000 ng/ml (R(2)=0.9999), and a low detection limit of 1.0 ng/ml. Furthermore, the effectiveness of this approach was further validated through measuring the AI-2 concentrations in the cell-free culture supernatants of both Escherichia coli and Vibrio harveyi.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007783 Lactones Cyclic esters of hydroxy carboxylic acids, containing a 1-oxacycloalkan-2-one structure. Large cyclic lactones of over a dozen atoms are MACROLIDES. Lactone
D002474 Cell-Free System A fractionated cell extract that maintains a biological function. A subcellular fraction isolated by ultracentrifugation or other separation techniques must first be isolated so that a process can be studied free from all of the complex side reactions that occur in a cell. The cell-free system is therefore widely used in cell biology.

D004926 Escherichia coli A species of gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic, rod-shaped bacteria (GRAM-NEGATIVE FACULTATIVELY ANAEROBIC RODS) commonly found in the lower part of the intestine of warm-blooded animals. It is usually nonpathogenic, but some strains are known to produce DIARRHEA and pyogenic infections. Pathogenic strains (virotypes) are classified by their specific pathogenic mechanisms such as toxins (ENTEROTOXIGENIC ESCHERICHIA COLI), etc. Alkalescens-Dispar Group,Bacillus coli,Bacterium coli,Bacterium coli commune,Diffusely Adherent Escherichia coli,E coli,EAggEC,Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli,Enterococcus coli,Diffusely Adherent E. coli,Enteroaggregative E. coli,Enteroinvasive E. coli,Enteroinvasive Escherichia coli
