The simple, accurate, and rapid detection of foodborne pathogens is essential for public health. Development of an immunomagnetic separation (IMS) multiplex touchdown PCR (IMS–multiplex TD–PCR) assay for simultaneous detection and distinguishing ofC. jejuniandC. coliis reported herein. Polyclonal antibody (pAb) against multiepitope antigen (MEA) was conjugated to ferromagnetic nanoparticles (FMNs) to produce anti‐MEA FMNs. Optimal anti‐MEA FMNs loading yielded 26.7μg of immunoglobulin G (IgG) molecules per mg of FMNs with an average size of 72 ± 9 nm, corresponding to an 83% rate of pAb conjugation. Anti‐MEA FMNs (20μg) for IMS captured culturable C.jejunicells at 3.54 × 102colony‐forming unit (CFU)/mL in pure culture, while higher amounts (40 and 60μg) reduced the recovery. The scanning electron microscope (SEM) analysis revealed the attachment of anti‐MEA FMNs to target bacteria, forming aggregated cells and magnetic nanoparticles in ellipse‐like shapes. The subsequent multiplex TD–PCR assay simultaneously detected and distinguishedC. jejuniandC. coliat 104CFU/mL in mixed culture and at 103CFU/mL for each individual species. Furthermore, the limit of detection (LOD) of the IMS–multiplex TD–PCR assay was 104CFU/g in spiked chicken breast samples. Specificity was 100% for bothC. jejuniandC. colias none of the amplicons were detected in control samples whereCampylobacterwas absent. This assay is able to detect and distinguishC. jejuniandC. colisimultaneously and is simple, accurate, and rapid with a time to result of 4 h without an enrichment step, making it a promising approach for rapid and culture‐free detection ofCampylobacterin chicken products.
