Abstract
Hapten design and synthesis have been regarded as the key factor to generate high-quality antibodies. In the present study, a novel hapten of chloramphenicol was synthesized, characterized and compared with two conventional haptens. The new hapten generated mAb 4B5 showed higher sensitivity and titer than the other two haptens-based mAbs. The haptens synthesized with the structure of chloramphenicol base generated more sensitive antibodies than the hapten with chloramphenicol succinate, and the spacer arm linked to the phenyl group hapten elicited the strongest antibody response. After optimization, a direct competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (dcELISA) and a lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA), both based on the mAb 4B5, were developed. The dcELISA had a half maximum inhibition concentration of 0.23 ng/mL and the LFIA showed a cutoff value of 5–10 ng/mL. The LFIA was applied to detect illegally-added chloramphenicol samples in anti-acne cosmetics, five out of 19 samples were tested chloramphenicol containing within 10 min, which result was confirmed with the dcELISA and HPLC. The LFIA has an adequate sensitivity and can be used as a point of care diagnostic device for rapidly screening chloramphenicol in cosmetics.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Immunological Methods is devoted to covering techniques for: (1) Quantitating and detecting antibodies and/or antigens. (2) Purifying immunoglobulins, lymphokines and other molecules of the immune system. (3) Isolating antigens and other substances important in immunological processes. (4) Labelling antigens and antibodies. (5) Localizing antigens and/or antibodies in tissues and cells. (6) Detecting, and fractionating immunocompetent cells. (7) Assaying for cellular immunity. (8) Documenting cell-cell interactions. (9) Initiating immunity and unresponsiveness. (10) Transplanting tissues. (11) Studying items closely related to immunity such as complement, reticuloendothelial system and others. (12) Molecular techniques for studying immune cells and their receptors. (13) Imaging of the immune system. (14) Methods for production or their fragments in eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells.
In addition the journal will publish articles on novel methods for analysing the organization, structure and expression of genes for immunologically important molecules such as immunoglobulins, T cell receptors and accessory molecules involved in antigen recognition, processing and presentation. Submitted full length manuscripts should describe new methods of broad applicability to immunology and not simply the application of an established method to a particular substance - although papers describing such applications may be considered for publication as a short Technical Note. Review articles will also be published by the Journal of Immunological Methods. In general these manuscripts are by solicitation however anyone interested in submitting a review can contact the Reviews Editor and provide an outline of the proposed review.
