ABSTRACT
In this article, Fluorescence spectroscopy has been employed for the identification of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PA) and Escherichia coli (E. coli) in water suspension. Emission spectra of PA and E. coli suspensions have been acquired by using excitation wavelengths from 270 to 420 nm with steps of 10 nm to explore their spectral features. It has been found that the emission spectra of tryptophan, tyrosine, NADH and FAD, being the intracellular biomolecules present in both bacteria, can be used as fingerprints for their identification, differentiation and quantification. Both bacterial strains can clearly be differentiated from water and from each other by using λex 270-290 nm through spectral analysis and from λex 300-500 nm by applying statistical analysis. Furthermore, calibration curves for different bacterial loads of PA and E. coli suspensions have been produced between colonies forming units per ml (CFUs/ml) the integrated intensities of their emission spectra. CFUs/ml of both bacterial suspensions have been determined through plate count method which was used as cross-reference for the analysis of emission spectra of both bacterial suspensions. These curves may be used to estimate CFU/ml of both PA and E. coli in unknown water suspensions by determining the integrating intensity of their emission spectra.
