A highly sensitive sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit was established for quantifying ovomucoid from hen's egg white, which has been considered as one of the major allergen in egg white. The detection limit reached 0.041 ng/mL, and linearity ranged from 0.1 to 6.25 ng/mL. Intra- and interassay coefficient variations were all lower than 5% at three concentrations (0.5, 2.5, and 5 ng/mL). No cross-reactivity was observed with bovine serum, horse serum, goat serum, human serum, duck egg white, goose egg white, quail egg white, and pigeon egg white, but a low level of cross-reactivity was found with chicken serum. The ELISA kit was established on the basis of two monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) recognizing different epitopes of ovomucoid. However, these mAbs were generated using commercially purified ovalbumin as immunogen. Studies on the relative allergenicity and antigenicity of egg white protein have been performed by many researchers, but there were controversial opinions reported previously because of the impurity of each egg white protein used in various studies. In the present work we measured the degree of ovomucoid contamination in commercially purified ovalbumin sample, and the value was about 11%. We also determined the ovomucoid residue in influenza vaccine samples for the first time. These data showed that the ELISA kit we established could serve as an effective method for precisely quantifying concentrations of ovomucoid in the egg industry and as a useful tool for the research of allergenicity and antigenicity of hen's egg proteins.  相似文献

A monoclonal antibody (Mab) was produced by using the kanamycin-glutaraldehyde-bovine serum albumin (Kan-GDA-BSA) conjugate as the immunogen. The anti-Kan Mab exhibited high cross-reactivity with tobramycin (Tob) and slight or negligible cross-reactivity with other aminoglycosides. The specificity and cross-reactivity of this Mab are discussed regarding the three-dimensional, computer-generated molecular models of the aminoglycosides. Using this Mab, a rapid enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and a colloidal gold-based strip test for Kan and Tob were developed. The rapid ELISA showed a 50% inhibition value (IC 50) of 0.83 ng/mL for Kan and 0.89 ng/mL for Tob with the analysis time less than 40 min, and the recoveries from spiked swine tissues at levels of 25-200 microg/kg ranged from 52% to 96% for Kan and 61% to 86% for Tob. In contrast, the strip test for Kan or Tob had a visual detection limit of 5 ng/mL in PBS, 50 microg/kg in meat or liver, and 100 microg/kg in kidney, and the results can be judged within 5-10 min. Observed positive samples judged by the strip test can be further quantitated by ELISA, hence the two assays can complement each other for rapid detection of residual Kan and Tob in swine tissues. Moreover, physical-chemical factors that affected the ELISA and strip test performance were also investigated. The effect of pH and antibody amount for gold-antibody conjugation on the strip test sensitivity was determined followed by a theoretical explanation of the effects.  相似文献

A competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed for the quantitative detection of the organophosphorus insecticide bromophos-ethyl. Four bromophos-ethyl derivatives (haptens) were synthesized and were coupled to carrier proteins through the pesticide thiophosphate group to use as an immunogen or as a coating antigen. Rabbits were immunized with either one of two haptens coupled to bovine serum albumin for production of polyclonal antibodies, and the sera were screened against one of the haptens coupled to ovalbumin. Using the serum with highest titer, an antigen-coated ELISA was developed, which showed an IC(50) of 3.9 ng/mL with a detection limit of 0.3 ng/mL (20% inhibition). An antibody-coated ELISA using an enzyme tracer was also developed, which showed an IC(50) of 6.5 ng/mL with a detection limit of 1.0 ng/mL (20% inhibition). The antibodies showed negligible cross-reactivity with other organophosphorus pesticides except with the insecticides bromophos-methyl and chlorpyrifos in the antibody-coated assay only. Recoveries of bromophos-ethyl from fortified crop and water samples ranged from 82 to 128% and from 95 to 127%, respectively.  相似文献

The performance of a commercially available microtiter plate ELISA kit for the determination of the neonicotinoid insecticide imidacloprid was evaluated for sensitivity, selectivity, influence of organic solvent used for extraction procedure, matrix interference originated from agricultural sample, accuracy, and method comparison with conventional HPLC analysis. The limit of detection for the kit (0.1 or 0.5 ng/mL) was determined. The working range (1-39 ng/mL) experimentally calculated on the basis of a criterion, which is determined as the range from I(20) to I(80), was comparable to that established by the manufacturer (1-50 ng/mL). The linearity of the standard curve based on the kit-assembled standard solutions agreed with the one based on the self-made standard solutions. Specificity studies indicate that the imidacloprid monoclonal antibody can readily distinguish the target compound from other structurally related neonicotinoid analogues and some metabolites, with the exception of clothianidin, the cross-reactivity of which was approximately 12%. To extract imidacloprid from an agricultural sample (apple) as simply and rapidly as possible, some extraction methods were examined. Consequently, the extraction method with hand-shaking for 5 min was the best among the examined methods. For the analysis of imidacloprid in apple samples, it was extracted directly with methanol and the extracts were diluted 10-fold (100-fold in the well) with water prior to ELISA analysis. No significant matrix interference was observed with the dilution factor. Recoveries of imidacloprid from fortified apple samples ranged from 87.7 to 112.0%. The results obtained with the ELISA kit correlated well with those by the reference method (conventional HPLC analysis) for apple samples (r > 0.998). These findings strongly indicate that the ELISA kit may be employed routinely for an on-site imidacloprid residue analysis of apple samples.  相似文献

Ractopamine hydrochloride is a beta-adrenergic leanness-enhancing agent approved for use in swine in the United States. Depletion of ractopamine and its metabolites from animal tissues, urine, and serum is of interest for the detection of illegal use. The objectives of this study were to measure the residues of ractopamine in swine incurred samples after treatment with dietary ractopamine for 28 consecutive days. An efficient and sensitive analytical method was developed for the detection of parent ractopamine and its metabolites in swine tissues, urine, and serum by HPLC-FLD. After extraction, enzymatic digestion, and solid-phase cleanup of the samples, ractopamine residues were determined by liquid chromatography (LC) with fluorescence detector. The limits of detection (LOD) for tissues, urine, and serum were 1 ng g(-1), 0.5 ng mL(-1), and 0.5 ng mL(-1), respectively. Recoveries ranged from 70.5 to 94.5% for samples fortified at 1-50 ng g(-1) or ng mL(-1). Sixty pigs were fed twice daily for 28 consecutive days with feeds containing 18 mg kg(-1) ractopamine HCl. The residue concentrations in urine, liver, and kidney were 650.06 ng mL(-1), 46.09 ng g(-1), and 169.27 ng g(-1), respectively, compared with those in muscle, fat, and serum (4.94 ng g(-1), 3.28 ng g(-1), and 7.48 ng mL(-1), respectively) at the feeding period of 7 days. The residue concentrations at withdrawal period of 0 days in all edible tissues were lower than tolerance values established by the FDA and MRL values listed by the JECFA. These data support the withdrawal time of 0 days established by the FDA for ractopamine used as feed additive in swine.  相似文献

A competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for pentachloronitrobenzene (PCNB), a fungicide and chemical intermediate, was developed using a polyclonal antiserum produced against a hapten-protein conjugate of pentachlorophenoxypropionic acid-bovine serum albumin (BSA). An indirect competitive ELISA of PCNB showed an IC50 of 37 ng/mL and a limit of detection (LOD) of 7 ng/mL. The ELISA can tolerate up to 10% (v/v) methanol, 5% (v/v) acetonitrile, or 5% (v/v) acetone without significant fluctuation of Amax and IC50. The assay sensitivity showed little change in a range of pH from 6 to 8 and concentrations of 0.05-0.2 M NaCl in the assay buffer. Very low cross-reactivities were observed for some structurally related compounds except for hexachlorobenzene (12%). The average recoveries of PCNB from fortified well water, river water, and soil samples were in ranges of 88-94, 80-91, and 70-81%, respectively. The correlations between the gas chromatographic and ELISA results were excellent (r 2 >or= 0.97, slopes from 0.86 to 1.10) for those fortified samples. The ELISA is a good alternative tool for monitoring PCNB residues in environmental samples.  相似文献

The present work describes the design and synthesis of the structurally unique hapten, "bifunctional hapten", to produce a group-specific polyclonal antiserum to triclopyr and 3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinol. A bifunctional hapten was designed and synthesized by conjugating commercially available Nepsilon-2,4-dinitrophenyl (DNP)-L-lysine to triclopyr, and then coupling this to carrier proteins such as bovine serum albumin (BSA). The synthesized bifunctional hapten greatly raised the antiserum titer in comparison with that of the conventional hapten, triclopyr. Antiserum with a sufficiently high titer to provide the determinations of targeted compounds was obtained only 63 days after the primary immunization. The obtained antiserum showed the highest affinity to triclopyr (IC(50) = 3.5 nM) and 3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinol (IC(50) = 5.1 nM) in homologous ELISA. The cross-reactivities to various agrochemicals and some chlorinated phenolic compounds were determined. Significant cross-reactivity was found to the herbicide 2,4,5-T. The antiserum reacted to both triclopyr and its metabolite. Assay sensitivity was evaluated for effects of various assay conditions, including pH value and concentrations of organic solvents and detergents. Under optimized assay conditions, the quantitative working range of triclopyr ELISA was from 0.1 to 5.2 ng/mL with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.037 ng/mL, and an IC(50) of 0.72 ng/mL. On the other hand, the quantitative working range of 3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinol ELISA was from 0.13 to 6.0 ng/mL with a LOD of 0.052 ng/mL, and an IC(50) of 0.95 ng/mL. Water samples fortified with triclopyr or its metabolite at 1, 5, and 10 ng/mL were directly analyzed without extraction and cleanup by the proposed ELISA. The mean recovery was 101.6%, and the mean coefficient of variation (CV) was 7.1% in the case of the triclopyr ELISA. In the case of the 3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinol ELISA, the mean recovery was 99.8%, and the mean CV was 9.5%. The proposed ELISA turned out to be a powerful tool for monitoring of residual triclopyr or 3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinol in water samples at trace level.  相似文献

This article presents the generation of monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) with high specificity against 19-nortestosterone (NT) through cell fusion techniques and the development of a mAb-based indirect competitive ELISA (icELISA) method and colloidal gold-based immuno-chromatographic assay to detect NT residues in beef and pork samples. A modified carbodiimide method was employed to synthesize the artificial antigen, and BALB/c mice were used to produce anti-NT mAbs. On the basis of the checkerboard titration, an indirect competitive ELISA standard curve was established. This assay was sensitive and had a linear range from 0.03 to 38 ng/mL in phosphate buffered saline (PBS), with IC(50) and LOD values of 0.52 ng/mL and 0.01 ng/mL, respectively. Of all the competitive analogues, the produced mAb exhibited a high cross-reactivity to 17α-nortestosterone (83.6%), the main metabolite of NT in animal tissues. Except for moderate cross-reactivities with trenbolone (22.6%) and β-boldenone (13.8%), the other interference to the assay was negligible (<0.05%). In contrast, the strip test had a visual detection limit of 1 ng/mL in PBS, 2 μg/kg in beef, and 2 μg/kg in pork, respectively, and the results can be judged within 10 min. The ELISA and GC-MS results showed close correlation in beef (R2=0.9945) and in pork (R2=0.9977). Therefore, the combination of two immunoassays provides a useful screening method for quantitative or qualitative detection of NT residues in animal-origin products.  相似文献

A sensitive assay for the detection of sulfamethazine in swine urine and muscle tissue using a direct competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) has been developed. Undiluted urine or a phosphate-buffered saline extract of pork muscle tissue is mixed with an enzyme-labeled conjugate of sulfamethazine and horseradish peroxidase. The mixture is added to wells of a microtiter plate coated with antibody to sulfamethazine. After the test system is incubated, washed, and re-incubated with substrate and the reaction is stopped, the absorbance is measured at 405 nm. Levels of sulfamethazine as low as 20 ng sulfamethazine/g muscle tissue and 10 ng sulfamethazine/mL swine urine were detected and estimated.  相似文献

Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for T-2 toxin metabolites in urine   总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3  
A direct competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for determination of total T-2 toxin metabolites in urine was developed. The assay involves coating anti-3-acetyl-neosolaniol-hemisuccinate-bovine serum albumin conjugate (anti-3-Ac-NEOS-HS-BSA) antibody to the ELISA plate and using 3-Ac-NEOS-HS-peroxidase as the enzyme marker. Competitive ELISA revealed that the antibody had good cross-reactivity with acetyldiacetoxyscirpenol (Ac-DAS), T-2 tetraol tetraacetate, 3'-OH-Ac-T-2, 3-Ac-NEOS, and 3,4,15-triacetyl-12,13-epoxytrichothec-9-en-8-one (Ac-T-2-8-one), but less cross-reactivity with Ac-T-2 toxin and T-2 toxin. All metabolites of T-2 toxin in urine were converted to T-2 tetraol tetraacetate (T-2-4ol-4Ac) by acetylation of the sample extract before ELISA. To test the ELISA accuracy, a radioimmunoassay (RIA) was performed simultaneously. The linear portion of the standard curve of this direct ELISA for T-2-4ol-4Ac was 0.2-2.0 ng/mL, which was 10 times more sensitive than RIA. The minimum detection level for T-2-4ol-4Ac was 0.02 ng/mL (0.4 pg/assay) in the absence of urine sample. The overall analytical recoveries for T-2 toxin, HT-2, T-2-4ol, 3'-OH-HT-2, NEOS, and a mixture of these 5 toxins added to the urine samples in the ELISA at concentrations of 0.05 and 0.2 ng/mL were 87 and 94%, respectively.  相似文献

To develop a competitive indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay based on polyclonal antibodies for the detection of the sulfonylurea herbicide bensulfuron-methyl, seven structurally related haptens were synthesized. Four of them mimicking the target analyte were conjugated to keyhole limpet hemocyanin by the N-hydroxysuccinimide activated ester method to use as immunogens, and all of them were conjugated to bovine serum albumin to use as plate-coating antigens. Polyclonal antibodies raised in rabbits and the coating antigens were screened and selected for the assay in simple homologous and heterologous ELISA formats. Three sensitive heterologous ELISAs were selected and optimized, showing the average IC(50) values of bensulfuron-methyl as low as 0.17, 0.09, and 0.09 ng/mL, the detection ranges of 0.04-0.60, 0.01-0.60, and 0.04-0.25 ng/mL, and the lowest detection limits of 0.03, 0.002, and 0.03 ng/mL, respectively. The cross-reactivities of other sulfonylurea herbicides and metabolites of bensulfuron-methyl to the antibodies were less than 15% in the two assays. Recoveries from the analyte-fortified water samples in assay I were in the range of 81-125% by simple dilution. The correlation between the ELISA and HPLC was 0.999 (n = 15) with a slope of 1.37 in the analysis of groundwater samples fortified with bensulfuron-methyl. The results obtained strongly indicate that the ELISA can be a highly sensitive and convenient tool for detecting bensulfuron-methyl residues in agricultural and environmental samples.  相似文献

The applicability of an ELISA for detection and quantification of benalaxyl in red wine samples is described. The study of the influence of this matrix on the reliability of the assay indicates that red wine samples require a rapid and simple cleanup step before ELISA assay. Recovery and precision of the method were evaluated by spiking red wine samples with benalaxyl in the 0.5-24 ng/mL range. Benalaxyl can be determined with good accuracy and precision up to 0. 5 ng/mL in starting red wine samples (detection limit of 0.13 ng/mL). No false negative or positive results were obtained. Authentic red wine samples were analyzed by ELISA and by RP-HPLC. The amounts of benalaxyl found by ELISA were in good agreement with RP-HPLC analysis.  相似文献

A sensitive, competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for chloramphenicol (CAP) in swine muscle tissue has been developed. The ELISA is based on an earlier procedure. To improve sensitivity, different optimization procedures were investigated. The introduction of a streptavidin-biotin system and the use of a coating antigen with a lower CAP incorporation resulted in the most sensitive ELISA: the CAP concentration giving 50% inhibition decreased from 125 ng/mL to 3.0 ng/mL. This ELISA procedure was applied for a rapid screening of CAP residues in swine muscle tissue. The tissues were extracted with demineralized water. A concentrated phosphate-buffered saline solution was added to the filtered aqueous extract and this sample solution was directly submitted to the ELISA procedure. The results were compared to values obtained by analysis of a corresponding blank. This blank was prepared by treating a part of the aqueous sample solution with an immobilized monoclonal antibody preparation. This treatment was necessary because aqueous extracts of different swine muscle tissues showed a high variation in dose-response curves, probably caused by the complexity and variability of the matrix. In spiked tissues, the presence of CAP at concentrations of 10 micrograms/kg and higher can be easily demonstrated.  相似文献

A competitive indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ciELISA) for the organophosphorus insecticide acephate, O,S-dimethyl acetylphosphoramidothioate, was developed using a polyclonal antibody. Five different haptens mimicking the analyte were synthesized and conjugated with the carrier proteins bovine serum albumin (BSA) and keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) by the N-hydroxysuccinimide active ester and diazotization methods. Polyclonal antibodies raised against hapten-KLH conjugates in rabbits and hapten-BSA conjugates as coating antigens were screened and selected for the assay in the homologous and heterologous ELISA systems. The effects of various assay conditions such as detergent, organic solvents, pH, and preincubation of the mixture of the polyclonal antibody and the analyte on the sensitivity were evaluated. The IC(50) value for acephate was 25 ng/mL in an optimized heterologous system using hapten-4-BSA as a coating antigen and a polyclonal antibody no. 8377 against hapten-1-KLH, showing the detection range of 5-140 ng/mL and the lowest detection limit of 2 ng/mL. The cross-reactivities of the structurally related organophosphorus insecticides, including the major metabolite of the analyte, methamidophos, were less than 1%. Recoveries from the analyte-fortified tap water, mulberry leaves, and lettuce samples in the assay were in the range of 72-121% by simple extraction, concentration, and dilution. These results indicate that the ELISA could be a convenient and supplemental analytical tool for monitoring acephate residues in environmental and agricultural samples.  相似文献

Marine toxins from microscopic algae can accumulate through the food chain and cause various neurological and gastrointestinal illnesses for human health. Herein, we designed a new ultrasensitive multiplexed immunoassay protocol for simultaneous electrochemical determination of brevetoxin B (BTX-2) and dinophysistoxin-1 (DTX-1) in seafood using distinguishable metal nanocluster-labeled molecular tags as traces on bifunctionalized magnetic capture probes. To construct such a bifunctionalized probe, monoclonal mouse anti-BTX-2 (mAb(1)) and anti-DTX-1 (mAb(2)) antibodies were co-immobilized on a magnetic bead (MB-mAb(1,2)). The distinguishable metal nanoclusters including cadmium nanoclusters (CdNC) and copper nanoclusters (CuNC) were synthesized using the artificial peptides with amino acid sequence CCCYYY, which were used as distinguishable signal tags for the label of the corresponding bovine serum albumin-BTX-2 and bovine serum albumin-DTX-1 conjugates. A competitive-type immunoassay format was adopted for the online simultaneous monitoring of BTX-2 and DTX-1 on a homemade flow-through magnetic detection cell. The assay was based on the stripping voltammetric behaviors of the labeled CdNC and CuNC at the various peak potentials in pH 2.5 HCl containing 0.01 M KCl using square wave anodic stripping voltammetry (SWASV). Under optimal conditions, the multiplexed immunoassays enabled simultaneous detection of BTX-2 and DTX-1 in a single run with wide working ranges of 0.005-5 ng mL(-1) for two marine toxins. The limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) were 1.8 and 6.0 pg mL(-1) for BTX-2, while those for DTX-1 were 2.2 and 7.3 pg mL(-1), respectively. No non-specific adsorption and electrochemical cross-talk between neighboring sites were observed during a series of procedures to detect target analytes. The covalent conjugation of biomolecules onto the nanoclusters and magnetic beads resulted in good repeatability and intermediate precision down to 9.5%. The method featured unbiased identification of negative (blank) and positive samples. No significant differences at the 0.05 significance level were encountered in the analysis of 12 spiked samples, including Sinonovacula constricta , Musculista senhousia , and Tegillarca granosa , between the multiplexed immunoassay and commercially available enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for analysis of BTX-2 and DTX-1.  相似文献

Competitive direct enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and the immunochromatographic assay were developed using a monoclonal antibody to detect gentamicin in the animal plasma and milk. No cross-reactivity of the antibody was observed with other aminoglycosides based on competitive direct ELISA, indicating that the antibody is highly specific for gentamicin. On the basis of the standard curves, the detection limits were determined to be 0.9 ng/mL in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS), 1.0 ng/mL in plasma, and 0.5 ng/mL in milk, respectively. Recoveries of gentamicin from spiked plasma and milk at levels of 25-100 ng/mL ranged from 85 to 112%. The concentration of intramuscularly injected gentamicin was successfully monitored in the rabbit plasma through competitive direct ELISA. The detection limits were estimated to be about 6 ng/mL of gentamicin in PBS, plasma, and milk using the colloidal gold-based immunochromatographic assay, which is suitable for the simple screening of gentamicin residues in the veterinary field. Observed positives can be confirmed using a more sensitive laboratory method such as competitive direct ELISA. Therefore, the assays developed in this study could complement each other as well as veterinary field and laboratory findings.  相似文献

A rapid and simple immunochemical method was developed for the assessment of the creatine kinase (MM) isoenzyme [CK(MM)], a protein marker linked with animal welfare and meat quality. The one-step time-resolved immunofluorometric assay produced quantitative results from serum or whole blood samples in 20 min. The analytical limit of detection (mean + 2s) for the immunoassay was 17 ng/mL (n = 6), and the functional limit of detection for the analysis of porcine whole blood samples was 426 ng/mL (n = 24). The working range of the method was linear up to 50 micro g/mL, and the within-assay precision varied between 2.1 and 10.9%. The analysis of porcine serum samples showed that the results from the immunoassay method and colorimetric CK enzyme activity determination were highly correlated (r(2) = 0.965, n = 17, p < 0.001). The practicability of the assay was demonstrated by the analysis of 300 porcine whole blood samples in a slaughterhouse environment.  相似文献

In this work, a polyclonal antibody for acrylamide (AA) was obtained by immunization of rabbits with N-acryloxysuccinimide (NAS) and keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) conjugate. A direct enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) based on this antibody was developed with enhanced chemiluminescent (ECL) detection of AA in food samples. Assay conditions, such as concentrations of antibody and enzyme conjugate and competition time, were optimized. The effects of ionic strength and pH value were investigated. The optimized ECL-ELISA system allowed AA determination in a linear working range of 26.3-221.1 ng mL(-1) with an IC(50) value of 60.6 ng mL(-1) and a limit of detection of 18.6 ng mL(-1). Good recoveries with spiked food samples were obtained with a recovery range from 74.4 to 98.1%, and these results correlated well with those obtained using an HPLC method. This indicates that ECL-ELISA is applicable to the specific detection and routine monitoring of AA in food samples.  相似文献

Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for microcystins in blue-green algal blooms   总被引：18，自引：0，他引：18  
A direct competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the freshwater blue-green algal toxin microcystin (MCYST) in algae and water was developed. The assay involves coating anti-MCYST-variant leucine-arginine (LR) antibody to the ELISA plate and the use of MCYST-LR-peroxidase as the enzyme marker. The linear portion of the standard curve for MCYST in phosphate buffer containing saline (PBS) was 0.5-10.0 ng/mL (25-500 pg/assay). The minimum detection level for MCYST-LR was 0.20 ng/mL (10 pg/assay). Contaminated water could be directly used in the ELISA. The overall analytical recoveries for MCYST-LR added to water at levels of 1-20 ng/mL was 83.4%. For analysis of cellular MCYST, the toxin was first extracted from the algae with 0.1M ammonium bicarbonate, diluted with PBS to less than 0.5 mg dried algae/mL (less than 5.0 mg wet weight/mL) and directly used in the ELISA. C-18 reverse-phase Sep-Pak cartridges effectively adsorbed MCYST from the toxin-containing solutions. The toxin could be recovered from the cartridge by eluting with 60% methanol. Using this approach, an algae extract that was relatively free of MCYST was prepared and was used in a recovery study. The overall analytical recovery of MCYST added to the algae extract in the range of 0.25-20 ppm was 83% with a coefficient of variation of 11.9%. The detection limit for MCYST in dried algae was about 0.25-0.5 microgram/g (0.25-0.5 ppm) lyophilized algae sample. This method was applied for the analysis of several naturally occurring algal blooms. Limited samples were also analyzed for MYCST by liquid chromatography.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

An indirect competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed to detect ciprofloxacin (CPFX) in food animal edible tissues. CPFX was converted by an active ester method into conjugates CPFX-bovine serum albumin (CPFX-BSA) and CPFX-human serum albumin (CPFX-HSA), which both allowed production of CPFX-specific rabbit antisera. In the ELISA, CPFX-HSA was coated onto the microtiter plate, followed by incubation with standard CPFX and anti-CPFX antibody. The indirect competitive ELISA revealed that the antisera have no cross-reactivity with penicillin, gentamicin, neomycin, sulfadiazine, and chlortetracycline. The antisera cross-reacted with enrofloxacin and norfloxacin about 69.8 and 44.6% as much as they did with CPFX. This ELISA was highly sensitive (0.32 ng/mL) to CPFX determination. Recovery of CPFX at 40 microg/kg was 75.58% in pork, 81.29% in chicken, and 84.30% in milk. The coefficients of variation varied from 3.7 to 9.2% over the range of CPFX concentrations studied. The linear detection range was between 1.6 and 1000 ng/mL. The results suggest that this ELISA is a specific, accurate, and convenient method for the detection of CPFX residues in food animal edible tissues.  相似文献
