4-Methylumbelliferyl caprylate (MUCAP) is a fluorogenic substrate for C8 esterase. MUCAP is cleaved by C8 esterase to release the fluorescent moiety 4-methylumbelliferyl (4-MU). 4-MU fluorescence is pH-dependent with excitation maxima of 320 and 360 nm at low (1.97-6.72) and high (7.12-10.3) pH, respectively, and an emission maximum ranging from 445 to 455 nm, increasing as pH decreases.

Kinetics of catalyzed hydrolysis of 4-Methylumbelliferyl Caprylate (MUCAP) salmonella reagent
Spectrochim Acta A Mol Biomol Spectrosc 2011 Sep;79(5):1540-5.PMID:21715222DOI:10.1016/j.saa.2011.05.013.
The kinetics of chemical hydrolysis including neutral, acid- and base-catalyzed hydrolysis of 4-Methylumbelliferyl Caprylate (MUCAP) salmonella reagent were studied at different temperatures. The rate constants and activation parameters were determined by following the build-up of fluorescence peak of the hydrolysis product 4-methylumbelliferone (4-MU). The time scale of esterase enzyme hydrolysis caused by salmonella was compared with chemical hydrolysis as a background process.
Identification of Salmonella spp. with Rambach agar in conjunction with the 4-Methylumbelliferyl Caprylate (MUCAP) fluorescence test
Br J Biomed Sci 1994 Mar;51(1):5-8.PMID:7841836doi
The utility of Rambach agar to identify Salmonella spp. was examined relative to its usefulness in clinical microbiology. Forty-four of 54 (82%) salmonella organisms isolated from faecal cultures and 66 of 82 (84%) salmonella stock cultures produced bright red colour colonies after 24 h incubation at 37 degrees C, whereas 48 of 54 (89%) salmonellae isolated from faecal cultures, and 74 of 82 (90%) salmonella stock cultures, yielded the bright red colour when the incubation time was extended to 48 h. Apart from Salmonella typhi and Salmonella paratyphi A the sensitivity of Rambach agar to detect salmonella strains belonging to five serogroups was 83% and 92% after 24 and 48 h of incubation, respectively. In contrast, other members of the family Enterobacteriaceae tested failed to give the bright red colour, except for one strain of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and another of Acinetobacter baumannii. The non-salmonella strains either gave a different colour--blue, green or orange--or were colourless. To supplement the use of Rambach agar in the detection of Salm. typhi and Salm. paratyphi A and other late or negative acid-producing salmonella species on this medium, the 4-Methylumbelliferyl Caprylate fluorescence (MUCAP) test was carried out, and this showed positive results with all the salmonella strains tested. These results suggest that while Rambach agar can not pre-identify Salm. typhi and Salm. paratyphi A, the use of a simple and rapid (MUCAP) test in combination would make it very useful to identify all Salmonella spp. after 24 h incubation.
Design and Development of Magnetic Iron Core Gold Nanoparticle-Based Fluorescent Multiplex Assay to Detect Salmonella
Nanomaterials (Basel) 2022 Nov 7;12(21):3917.PMID:36364693DOI:10.3390/nano12213917.
Salmonella is a bacterial pathogen which is one of the leading causes of severe illnesses in humans. The current study involved the design and development of two methods, respectively using iron oxide nanoparticle (IONP) and iron core gold nanoparticle (ICGNP), conjugated with the Salmonella antibody and the fluorophore, 4-Methylumbelliferyl Caprylate (4-MUCAP), used as an indicator, for its selective and sensitive detection in contaminated food products. Twenty double-blind beverage samples, spiked with Salmonella enteritidis, Staphylococcus aureus, and Escherichia coli, were prepared in sterile Eppendorf® tubes at room temperature. The gold layer and spikes of ICGNPs increased the surface areas. The ratio of the surface area is 0.76 (IONPs/ICGNPs). The comparative sensitivity and specificity of the IONP-based and the ICGNP-based methods to detect Salmonella were determined. The ICGNP method shows the limit of detection is 32 Salmonella per mL. The ICGNPs had an 83.3% sensitivity and a 92.9% specificity value for the presence and detection of Salmonella. The IONP method resulted in a limit of detection of 150 Salmonella per mL, and a 66.7% sensitivity and 83.3% specificity for the presence and detection of Salmonella. The higher surface area of ICGNPs increases the efficiency of detection. The monitoring of Salmonella can thus be achieved by a rapid magnetic fluorescent assay using a smartphone for image capture and analyze, providing quantitative results. The findings from the present study would help to detect Salmonella rapidly in water. It can improve the microbial quality of water and food safety due to the presence of Salmonella in the water environment.
High-Throughput, Fluorescence-Based Esterase Activity Assay for Assessing Polysorbate Degradation Risk during Biopharmaceutical Development
Pharm Res 2021 Mar;38(3):397-413.PMID:33655394DOI:10.1007/s11095-021-03011-1.
Purpose: Hydrolytic degradation of polysorbate during 2-8°C storage of monoclonal antibody drug products has been attributed to residual enzymes (e.g., esterases) from bioprocessing steps. Robust detection of esterase activity using sensitive, non-polysorbate surrogate substrates can provide an alternate method to assess polysorbate degradation risk, if the correlation between the esterase activity and polysorbate degradation is established. Methods: A general esterase activity assay was developed as a monitoring and characterization tool during bioprocess development of monoclonal antibodies. Results: We report a fluorescence plate-based assay for quantifying esterase activity, utilizing 4-Methylumbelliferyl Caprylate (MU-C8) as the esterase substrate. The assay was first assessed for substrate, inhibitor and pH specificity using both model enzymes and purified protein samples. The assay was then extensively tested to understand sample matrix effects on activity rates. Conclusions: The use of this high-throughput method will allow for rapid characterization of protein samples in under three hours. The esterase activity correlated directly with polysorbate degradation and can provide valuable information on polysorbate degradation risk throughout drug development.
Visual detection technique for efficient screening and isolation of Salmonella based on a novel enrichment assay using chromatography membrane
Eur J Clin Microbiol Infect Dis 2016 Mar;35(3):353-61.PMID:26796551DOI:10.1007/s10096-015-2543-2.
To detect Salmonella more efficiently and isolate strains more easily, a novel and simple detection method that uses an enrichment assay and two chromogenic reactions on a chromatography membrane was developed. Grade 3 chromatography paper is used as functionalized solid phase support (SPS), which contains specially optimized medium. One reaction for screening is based on the sulfate-reducing capacity of Salmonella. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) generated by Salmonella reacts with ammonium ferric citrate to produce black colored ferrous sulfide. Another reaction is based on Salmonella C8 esterase that is unique for Enterobacteriaceae except Serratia and interacts with 4-Methylumbelliferyl Caprylate (MUCAP) to produce fluorescent umbelliferone, which is visible under ultraviolet light. A very low detection limit (10(1) CFU ml(-1)) for Salmonella was achieved on the background of 10(5) CFU ml(-1) Escherichia coli. More importantly, testing with more than 1,000 anal samples indicated that our method has a high positive detection rate and is relatively low cost, compared with the traditional culture-based method. It took only 1 day for the preliminary screening and 2 days to efficiently isolate the Salmonella cells, indicating that the new assay is specific, rapid, and simple for Salmonella detection. In contrast to the traditional culture-based method, this method can be easily used to screen and isolate targeted strains with the naked eye. The results of quantitative and comparative experiments showed that the visual detection technique is an efficient alternative method for the screening of Salmonella spp. in many applications of large-sized samples related to public health surveillance.
