[Development of monoclonal-based enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and immunochromatographic assay for lasalocid and semduramicin].

Monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) against lasalocid and semduramicin were prepared using keyhole limpet hemocyanin conjugates for the immunization of mice. With these MAbs, we developed quantitative enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) methods for lasalocid and semduramicin. The ELISAs were quantitative in the ranges of 0.1-50 ng/mL for lasalocid and 0.05-12.5 ng/mL for semduramicin, and showed 50% inhibition concentrations of 1.2 ng/mL for lasalocid and 0.5 ng/mL for semduramicin. The coefficient of variations (CV%) of lasalocid were 0.3-4.4% for intra-assay and 0.5-5.1% for inter-assay and those of semduramicin were 0.1-4.6% for intra-assay and 0.3-5.2% for inter-assay. The detection limits for lasalocid and semduramicin were 10 ng/g and 5 ng/g in chicken liver and muscle, respectively. Based on the immunochromatographic method, rapid test kits for lasalocid and semduramicin were also developed. With these kits, the detection limits of lasalocid were 50 ng/mL for standard solution and 125 ng/g for chicken muscle, and those of semduramicin were 10 ng/mL for standard solution and 100 ng/g for chicken muscle.

Monoclonal-based enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and immunochromatographic assay for enrofloxacin in biological matrices.

Enrofloxacin has been increasingly used in veterinary medicine to treat microbial infections. A simple and reliable analytical method for this drug is required. The current determination by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is sensitive but labor-intensive. This paper reports an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using a monoclonal antibody (MAb) and the development of a rapid test kit based on immunochromatography. The detection limits using the ELISA were 10 ppb for chicken liver and muscle, and 1 ppb for cattle milk, respectively. The mean recovery values were 77.3-96.0% for chicken liver, 72.4-92.0% for chicken muscle and 84.0-99.0% for cattle milk. The detection limits using the kit were ca. 100 ppb for chicken muscle and ca. 10 ppb for cattle milk, respectively. All ELISA results for assay of chicken liver, chicken muscle and cattle milk were confirmed using HPLC which is used as the routine assay. The HPLC (x) and ELISA (y) results showed close correlation for chicken liver (y = 8.7 + 0.85x, r2 = 0.99, n = 25), chicken muscle (y = -3.9 + 0.94x, r2 = 0.98, n = 25) and cattle milk (y = 18.4 + 0.92x, r2 = 0.99, n = 25).
