Abstract: An F0F1-ATPase molecular motor biosensor was used to rapidly detect Vibrio parahaemolyticus in foods. For the construction of a biosensor, a specific toxR probe was connected to the ε subunit of F0F1-ATPase avidin-biotin system using an avidin-biotin system. The detection of Vibrio parahaemolyticus was based on differences in ATP production 30 min after separate conjugation of Vibrio parahaemolyticus and negative control to the constructed biosensor. ATP production was determined by measuring the H+ amount in the environment, which was dependent on the fluorescence intensity of F-DHPE. The optimum concentrations of chro toxR and Vibrio parahaemolyticus DNA for detecting Vibrio parahaemolyticu were found to be 40 ng/mL and 40 ng/mL, respectively. In practical applications, the results obtained by this method were in good agreement with those obtained by traditional detection methods and PCR.
