Seven carboxylic acid haptens of isoflavonoids were synthesized, with the spacer arm on the oxygen atom at the C7 position for one series, with formononetin, daidzein, equol, biochanin A, and genistein, and at the C8 position for a second series, with only formononetin and daidzein. The different haptens were coupled to bovine serum albumin (BSA) and to swine thyroglobulin (Thyr). Polyclonal antibodies were generated against the BSA conjugates. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) were developed based on competition between free phytoestrogens and the Thyr-hapten conjugates for specific antibodies. IC(50) values of the standard curves ranged between 0.8 and 20 ng/mL that is, 0.3 and 9.2 pmol/well. The antibodies obtained should be useful for assays in vegetable matter as well as in biological fluids after a separation step. These ELISAs should be valuable also in the food industry to control phytoestrogen concentrations prior to and after processing.  相似文献

An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed for the fungicide thiram. Two types of haptens were synthesized. The first type exhibits the two symmetrical N-alkyl dithiocarbamate patterns of thiram with a spacer arm linked to one of the N-methyl terminal group. The second type exhibits one of the two symmetrical N-alkyl dithiocarbamate patterns of thiram with a variable-length spacer arm linked to one sulfur atom. Polyclonal antibodies suitable for thiram detection were obtained from immunization with an hapten of the first type, while haptens of the second type were used as coating antigens to develop a competitive ELISA against thiram. The IC(50) value for thiram was estimated to be 0.24 microg/mL, with a detection limit of 0.03 microg/mL. The assay seems to be thiram-specific since no or little cross-reaction with other dithiocarbamates were observed.  相似文献

To develop an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for the fungicide fenarimol, two synthesized haptens, haptens-1 and -2, and the purchased 4,4'-DDA were conjugated to carrier proteins (BSA, KLH, and OVA). Polyclonal antibodies raised against hapten-1,2-KLH conjugates in rabbits and the coating antigens of hapten-1,2-BSA conjugates, hapten-2-OVA conjugate, and 4,4'-DDA-BSA conjugate were screened and selected for the homologous and/or heterologous ELISA formats. Two competitive indirect ELISAs were selected: assays I and II. The optimized ciELISAs of assays I and II showed average IC(50) values of fenarimol of 5.4 and 9.4 ng/mL, detection ranges of 1.1-25.9 and 1.1-82.7 ng/mL, and lowest detection limits of 0.3 and 0.3 ng/mL, respectively. The cross-reactivities with several structurally related compounds indicated the importance of the steric fitness in the antigen-antibody interaction. Recoveries of fenarimol from apple and pear samples spiked with the analyte by assay I were in the range of 93-113% by simple extraction, concentration, and dilution. This assay could be a convenient and supplemental analytical tool for monitoring fenarimol residues in environmental and agricultural samples.  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

A set of haptens structurally resembling the herbicide imazethapyr (PURSUIT) was synthesized and used to derive monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) and direct and indirect competition enzyme immunoassays (EIAs) which could detect imazethapyr, imazaquin (SCEPTER), imazapic (CADRE), and imazamox (RAPTOR) in the 3-30 ng/mL (parts per billion) range, and imazapyr (ARSENAL) and imazamethabenz-methyl (ASSERT) in the 300-500 ppb range. Two MAbs, 3A2 and 3A5, had affinities of 10-75 nM for imazethapyr. MAbs 1A5, 1D2, and 3A5 were specific for the S isomers of the herbicides. Some MAbs were stable in solutions containing up to 15% methanol and 5% acetonitrile in indirect EIAs. Plates coated with hapten conjugates for indirect EIA could be stored frozen. Selectivity for the imidazolinones by some MAbs varied with different coating conjugates. These MAbs and haptens should prove useful in immunochemical analysis and residue recovery methods for imazethapyr and other imidazolinone herbicides.  相似文献

This paper reports the synthesis of five sulfonamide derivatives, the production of broad-specificity polyclonal antibodies for immunoassay of sulfonamides, and the analysis of milk samples by developed assay. The three-step synthesis procedure reported in most of the literature was adopted and modified in this study. In the procedure, the purification of the intermediate was avoided and the time of synthesis was shortened from >20 to 6-9 h with improved yields. This method is generally applicable to the synthesis of haptens containing the common structure of sulfonamides. Three haptens were coupled to keyhole limpet hemocyanin, and polyclonal antibodies were obtained from rabbits immunized with these conjugates. Using the antibodies obtained, from one of these was developed an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) based on the competition between free sulfonamides and the hapten-horseradish peroxidase (HRP) conjugates. The hapten-HRP conjugate giving the best competitive results and 11 structurally different sulfonamides showed 50% inhibition at concentrations of <100 ng mL(-1). After removal of the protein with acetone, milk samples were analyzed by ELISA directly; a matrix effect could be avoided when a 1:20 dilution with phosphate-buffered saline was used, and 104-131% recoveries of spiked samples were obtained. The developed immunoassay is suitable to determine sulfisozole, sulfathiazole, sulfameter, sulfamethoxypyridazine, sulfapyridine, and sulfamethizole below the maximum residue limit in milk (100 ng mL(-1) of total sulfonamides) rapidly and reliably.  相似文献

Nine antisera have been raised against 2,4,6-trichloroanisole (2,4,6-TCA) by immunizing them with three different haptens. With the spacer arm at the meta position, hapten A (3-(2,4,6-trichloro-3-methoxyphenyl)propanoic acid) preserved all of the functional groups of the target analyte. In hapten B (5-(2,4,6-trichlorophenoxy)pentanoic acid), the spacer was placed in the molecule substituting the methoxy group. Finally, hapten C (3-(3,5-dichloro-4-methoxyphenyl)propanoic acid) held the spacer arm at the para position instead of the chlorine atom of the target analyte. Using theoretical models, we have studied how the molecular geometry and the electronic distribution are affected by the introduction of the linker. The evaluation of the avidity of the resulting antibodies demonstrates that the orientation produced by the spacer arm must also be considered an essential aspect. The screening for competitive assays performed after synthesizing a battery of heterologous competitors has provided with these antibodies eight indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays with acceptable properties. From the number of assays obtained, their maximal absorbance, their signal-to-noise ratio, the slope, and the IC(50) values obtained, it can be concluded that hapten C provided the best antibodies.  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

Hapten syntheses and antibody generation for a new herbicide, metamifop   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
To develop a competitive indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for metamifop, a new aryloxyphenoxypropionic acid herbicide, three structurally related haptens were synthesized. Hapten conjugates to keyhole limpet hemocyanin and bovine serum albumin were used as immunogens and plate-coating antigens, respectively. Various sets of polyclonal antibodies from rabbits and the coating antigens were screened for the assay in simple homologous and heterologous ELISA formats. A selected heterologous ELISA was optimized to show an average IC50 value as low as 20.1 ng/mL, detection ranges of 1.0-350 ng/mL, and a lowest detection limit of 0.1 ng/mL. The cross-reactivities of other aryloxyphenoxypropionic acid herbicides to the antibodies were less than 0.5% in the assays except fenoxaprop-P and fenoxaprop-P ethyl, having a diaryl ether group identical to that of metamifop. Molecular modeling studies revealed that the physicochemical properties of the diaryl ether group are the most important determinants of sensitivity and selectivity. The results strongly indicate that the selected set of ELISA is a highly sensitive and convenient tool for detecting metamifop.  相似文献

Monoclonal antibodies (Mabs) were developed that specifically bind tilmicosin. Keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) conjugates were used for the immunogen and plate coating antigen, respectively. The conjugates were synthesized by different methods, resulting in different linkages. Six hybridoma cell lines were isolated that produced Mabs that competed with tilmicosin, and have IgG1 isotype. The Til-1 and Til-5 Mabs had IC50 values for tilmicosin of 9.6 and 6.4 ng/well (48 and 32 ng/mL), respectively, and limits of detection at IC20 of 1.84 and 0.89 ng/well (9.2 and 4.45 ng/mL), respectively. The Mabs demonstrated high cross-reactivity to the macrolides containing 3,5-dimethylpiperidine at C20 and the amino sugar at C5. No cross-reactivity was observed for tylosin and other macrolides that did not contain 3,5-dimethylpiperidine. A competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed for the antibiotic tilmicosin by use of the developed Mabs. These Mabs may be excellent candidates for the determination and immunolocalization of tilmicosin.  相似文献

To produce monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) to the pesticide carbofuran, three compounds with carboxylic spacer arms of different lengths introduced at the carbamate group of the analyte structure were synthesized, conjugated to proteins, and used as immunizing haptens in mice. MAbs were subsequently characterized for affinity and specificity in the conjugate-coated format and in the antibody-coated format using newly synthesized compounds as heterologous assay haptens. Depending on the immunoreagent combination and assay format, competitive assays with I(50) values in the 1.2-10.2 nM (0.27-2.27 ng/mL) range were obtained. LIB-BFNB67 MAb in combination with the hapten BFNH, coupled either to horseradish peroxidase or to ovalbumin, was used to develop a direct and an indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, respectively. Optimized immunoassays displayed very similar analytical characteristics, with an I(50) value around 0.7 ng/mL and a limit of detection around 0.08 ng/mL. Both immunoassays were able to tolerate the presence of methanol up to a 15% concentration. Compounds very similar in structure to carbofuran (benfuracarb, furathiocarb, bendiocarb, and carbofuran-hydroxy) exhibited cross-reactivity values in the 18-37% range, but major N-methylcarbamate pesticides were not recognized by the MAb. These immunoassays should reasonably allow the rapid, low-cost, and sensitive determination of carbofuran in food, in soils, and in the environment at levels of regulatory and practical importance.  相似文献

LC/UV/ESI-MS analysis of isoflavones in Edamame and Tofu soybeans   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
High-performance liquid chromatography coupled with ultraviolet and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (HPLC/UV/ESI-MSD) was applied to the study of isoflavones in both Edamame and Tofu soy varieties, from which the immature fresh soybeans or the mature soybean seeds are consumed, respectively. Positive atmospheric pressure interface (API) MS and MS/MS were used to provide molecular mass information and led to the identification of a total 16 isoflavones, including three aglycones, three glycosides, two glycoside acetates, and eight glycoside malonates. The major isoflavones in soybean seeds were daidzein and genistein glycoside and their malonate conjugates. Trace levels of daidzein and genistein acetyl glycosides were found only in the mature dry soybean seeds. To facilitate quantitative analysis, acid hydrolysis during extraction of soy samples was selected to convert the various phytoestrogen conjugates into their respective isoflavone aglycones, allowing accurate quantitation of total phytoestrogens as aglycones. On the basis of HPLC combined with UV and MS detection, all three targeted soy isoflavone aglycones, daidzein, genistein and glycitein in hydrolyzed extracts were successfully quantified within 25 min with formononetin used as the internal standard. The standard curves of UV detection were fitted in the range of 14.16-29000 ng/mL for daidzein, 15.38-31500 ng/mL for genistein, and 11.72-24000 ng/mL for glycitein. For MS detection, the standard curves were established in the range of 3.54-1812.5 ng/mL for daidzein, 3.85-1968.75 ng/mL for genistein, and 2.93-1500 ng/mL for glycitein. Good linearities (r(2) > 0.999 for UV and r(2) > 0.99 for MS) for standard curves were achieved for each isoflavone. The accuracy and precision (RSD) were within 10% for UV detection and 15% for MS detection (n = 10). Using this method, the phytoestrogen levels of total isoflavone aglycones from 30 soybean seed varieties were then evaluated for confirmation of the technique. Total isoflavones ranged across the varieties from 0.02 to 0.12% in the Edamame varieties, which are harvested while the seeds are still immature, and from 0.16 to 0.25% in Tofu varieties, harvested when the seeds are physiologically mature. While the literature has focused on the isoflavone content of soy products and processing soy, this report provides a reliable analytical technique for screening of authenticated fresh immature Edamame soybeans and Tofu soybeans.  相似文献

Two enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) for the insecticide azinphos-methyl have been optimized and characterized. Both ELISAs are based on monoclonal antibodies produced from an immunogen with a hapten containing a phthalimido moiety and on protein conjugates of heterologous ligands containing a 1,2,3-benzotriazine group. Assay I was performed in the conjugate-coated ELISA format and assay II in the antibody-coated format. Several physicochemical factors (ionic strength, pH, incubation times, and Tween 20 and BSA concentrations) that influence assay performance were studied and optimized. Regarding specificity, both monoclonal immunoassays highly cross-reacted with azinphos-ethyl and phosmet. Finally, both assays were applied to the analysis of azinphos-methyl in spiked real water samples. For assay I the sensitivity, estimated as the I(50) value, was 0.40 nM, with a practical working range between 0.10 and 1.75 ng/mL and a limit of detection of 0.05 ng/mL. For assay II the sensitivity was 1.01 nM, with a practical working range between 0.32 and 2.54 ng/mL and a limit of detection of 0.08 ng/mL.  相似文献

Monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) to the pesticide propoxur were produced from haptens with carboxylic spacer arms of different lengths introduced at the carbamate group of the analyte structure. MAbs were subsequently characterized in the conjugate-coated format using these immunizing haptens and newly synthesized compounds as homologous and heterologous assay conjugates, respectively. Appropriate combinations of immunoreagents resulted in competitive enzyme immunoassays (ELISA) with I(50) values in the low nanomolar range (6.5-17.9 nM). A modification of the conjugate-coated format consisting of the simultaneous incubation of the MAb and the peroxidase-labeled secondary antibody in the presence of the analyte resulted in an assay with an I(50) value of 4.4 nM. This one-step conjugate-coated ELISA format is as simple and fast as the antibody-coated format but without the need of synthesizing enzyme-hapten conjugates. Major N-methylcarbamate pesticides were not recognized by the MAb. This immunoassay should reasonably allow the rapid, low-cost, and sensitive determination of propoxur in food, soils, and the environment at levels of regulatory and practical importance.  相似文献

Strobilurin fungicides are nowadays among the most important fungicides in the market of active agrochemicals. Pyraclostrobin, which belongs to the last generation of this family of molecules, shows a broader antifungal activity spectrum and higher efficiency and security profiles than previous fungicides. This paper describes the synthesis of functionalized haptens, the production of monoclonal antibodies, and the development of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA) for the detection of pyraclostrobin. A conformational analysis of hapten structure was performed, which provided relevant data concerning the length of the spacer arm. A very useful strategy has been followed for the screening of hybridomas, leading to the selection of a panel of high-affinity monoclonal antibodies to pyraclostrobin. Moreover, different immunoassays have been characterized using the conjugate-coated indirect ELISA format, and limits of detection below 0.1 microg/L have been obtained. Also, a simplified one-step procedure has been carried out with two indirect assays. Finally, these results have been compared with the performance of the same antibodies in the antibody-coated direct ELISA format.  相似文献

A highly selective and sensitive indirect competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for Sudan I was developed. Two hapten derivatives with different lengths of carboxylic spacer at the azo-bound para-position were synthesized and coupled to carrier proteins. The hapten-bovine serum albumin (BSA) conjugates were used as immunogens, while the hapten-ovalbumin (OA) conjugates were applied as coating antigens. The antisera which were obtained from four immunized rabbits were characterized in terms of sensitivity and specificity. At optimal experimental conditions it was found that IC50 and LOD values of seven pairs based on four antisera and two coating antigens were in the range of 0.3-2 ng/mL and 0.02-0.1 ng/mL, respectively. The most sensitive ELISA could be established with Sudan I-propionic acid-OA coating antigen and the antiserum which was obtained with the corresponding immunogen. The cross-reactivity values of the four antisera with Sudan II, III, and IV was estimated with 0.1-14.3%. No cross-reactivity was found with six edible colorants Sunset yellow, Amarant, Kermes, Indigotin, Bright blue and Lemon yellow, indicating high specificity for Sudan I. Six food samples were fortified with Sudan I and extracted by simple sample preparation. The methanolic extracts after dilution with methanol:water (5:95, v/v) were analyzed by the developed ELISA. Assay precision and accuracy was estimated by determination of three replicates. Acceptable recovery rates of 92.5-114% and intra-assay coefficients of variation of 5.9-24.8% were obtained. The data were validated by conventional HPLC method. As revealed, both methods were highly correlated (r = 0.9851, n = 7), demonstrating the applicability of the developed ELISA for Sudan I analysis in food samples.  相似文献

The development of monoclonal antibody-based enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays for azinphos-methyl is described. A panel of haptens was synthesized for immunoconjugate preparation, and a series of haptens for heterologous, coating or tracer, conjugates was also prepared. Hapten synthesis was based on a strategy in which only a fragment of the whole target molecule was present (fragmentary haptens). From immunized mice, a set of monoclonal antibodies was obtained and ELISA sensitivities were assayed in different formats. Affinities estimated as I(50) values in the low nanomolar range for azinphos-methyl and phosmet were observed for several monoclonal antibodies in the conjugate-coated format and in the antibody-coated format under nonoptimized assay conditions.  相似文献

In this paper, a new monoclonal antibody (Mab) against sulfamethoxypyridazine (SMP) was produced, and a fluorescence polarization immunoassay (FPIA) based on the produced Mab was developed and optimized for the qualitative screening analysis of SMP. The Mab was raised from mice immunized with SMP linked to bovine serum albumin (BSA) by carbodiimide activated ester formation, using a succinic anhydride spacer molecule between SMP and BSA. Fluorescein labeled sulfachloropyridazine (SCP) and SMP (tracer) were synthesized and purified by thin layer chromatography (TLC). The developed screening FPIA method can tolerate up to 20% methanol, and satisfactory assay sensitivity can be obtained between pH 4 and pH 8 and at lower salt concentration. The anti-SMP Mab exhibited a high cross-reactivity with SCP. The effect of the tracer structure on the analytical characteristic of the determination and on antigen-antibody binding constants was studied. The limits of detection (LOD) were 0.7 ng/mL for SMP and 0.25 ng/mL for SCP in buffer, respectively, whereas negligible cross-reactivities were exhibited by related sulfonamides. Analysis of SMP and SCP-fortified milk samples by the FPIA showed average recoveries from 60 to 145%.  相似文献

High-affinity and selective monoclonal antibodies have been produced against the strobilurin fungicide trifloxystrobin. A battery of functionalized haptens has been synthesized, and conjugate-coated enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays following different procedures have been developed. On the one hand, a two-step conjugate-coated immunoassay was optimized using extended or short incubation times, with limits of detection of 0.10 ng/mL for the extended assay and 0.17 ng/mL for the rapid assay. On the other hand, an immunoassay in the conjugate-coated format was optimized following a procedure consisting of just one incubation step. This one-step assay had a limit of detection of 0.21 ng/mL. All of these assays showed detection limits for trifloxystrobin in the low parts per billion range, well below the common maximum residue limits for this pesticide in foodstuffs (50 microg/kg).  相似文献

Strobilurin fungicides have been increasingly used for fungus pest control since they were introduced in 1996. For pesticide residue detection, immunoassays constitute nowadays a valuable approach. This paper describes the synthesis of functionalized haptens of kresoxim-methyl, the production of monoclonal antibodies, and the development of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. On the one hand, a two-step conjugate-coated immunoassay was optimized using extended or short incubation times, with limits of detection of 0.4 ng/mL for the extended assay and 0.3 ng/mL for the rapid assay. On the other hand, an immunoassay was optimized following a procedure consisting of just one incubation step. This one-step assay had a limit of detection of 0.4 ng/mL. All of these assays showed a similar performance, with sensitivities well below common maximum residue limits for this pesticide (50 microg/kg) and lower than the detection limits of the usual chromatographic detection methods.  相似文献
