Abstract
The single variable domains of camelid heavy-chain only antibodies, known as nanobodies, have taken a long journey since their discovery in 1989 until the first nanobody-based drug's entrance to the market in 2022. On account of their unique properties, nanobodies have been successfully used for diagnosis and therapy against various diseases or conditions. Although research on the application of recombinant antibodies has focused on human medicine, the development of nanobodies has paved the way for incorporating recombinant antibody production in favour of veterinary medicine. Currently, despite many efforts in developing these biomolecules with diversified applications, significant opportunities exist for exploiting these highly versatile and cost-effective antibodies in veterinary medicine. The present study attempts to identify existing gaps and shed light on paths for future research by presenting an updated review on camelid nanobodies with potential applications in veterinary medicine.

Abstract
The compound 3-phenoxybenzoic acid (3-PBA) is frequently utilized as a biomarker to detect exposure to various pyrethroids. In this study, a bivalent nanobody (Nb2) specifically targeting 3-PBA was biotinylated and immobilized onto streptavidin (SA)-modified bacterial magnetic nanoparticles (BMPs), resulting in the formation of BMP-SA-Biotin-Nb2 complexes. These complexes demonstrated remarkable stability when exposed to strongly acidic solutions (4 M HCl), methanol (80%), and high ionic strength (1.37 M NaCl). An immunoassay was subsequently developed utilizing BMP-SA-Biotin-Nb2 as the capture agent and 3-PBA-horseradish peroxidase as the detection probe. The immunoassay exhibited an IC50 value (half-maximum signal inhibition concentration) of 1.11 ng mL-1 for 3-PBA. To evaluate the accuracy of the assay, spiked sheep and cow urine samples (ranging from 3.0 to 240 ng mL-1) were analyzed. The quantitative recoveries ranged from 82.5% to 113.1%, which agreed well with the findings obtained using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Overall, the BMP-SA-Biotin-Nb2-based immunoassay holds great promise for rapid monitoring of 3-PBA following acid dissociation.

A bispecific nanobody with high sensitivity/efficiency for simultaneous determination of carbaryl and its metabolite 1-naphthol in the soil and rice samples. ENVIRONMENTAL POLLUTION (BARKING, ESSEX : 1987) 2023; 335:122265. [PMID: 37517641 PMCID: PMC10529271 DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2023.122265] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2023] [Revised: 07/24/2023] [Accepted: 07/25/2023] [Indexed: 08/01/2023]
Abstract
The simultaneous determination of carbaryl and its metabolite 1-naphthol is essential for risk assessment of pesticide exposure in agricultural and environmental samples. Herein, several bispecific nanobodies (BsNbs) with different lengths of hydrophilic linkers and junction sites were prepared and characterized for the simultaneous recognition of carbaryl and its metabolite 1-naphthol. It was found that the affinity of BsNbs to the analytes could be regulated by controlling linker length and linking terminal. Additionally, molecular simulation revealed that linker lengths affected the conformation of BsNbs, leading to alteration in sensitivity. The BsNb with G4S linker, named G4S-C-N-VHH, showing good thermal stability and sensitivity was used to develop a bispecific indirect competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (Bic-ELISA). The assay demonstrated a limit of detection of 0.8 ng/mL for carbaryl and 0.4 ng/mL for 1-naphthol in buffer system. Good recoveries from soil and rice samples were obtained, ranging from 80.0% to 112.7% (carbaryl) and 76.5%-110.8% (1-naphthol), respectively. Taken together, this study firstly provided a BsNb with high sensitivity and efficiency against environmental pesticide and its metabolite, and firstly used molecular dynamics simulation to explore the influence of linker on recognition. The results are valuable for the application of immunoassay with high efficiency in the fields of environment and agriculture.

Abstract
The 3-phenoxybenzoic acid (3-PBA) metabolized from pyrethroids is more toxic and has a longer half-life to degradation in a natural environment compared to its parent compounds. Few reports have focused on the environmental detection of 3-PBA. In this study, anti-3-PBA nanobodies in trivalent form (Nb3) were biotinylated. A sensitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) based on the combination of Nb3-biotin and streptavidin-horseradish peroxidase (SA-HRP) was developed for the environmental detection of 3-PBA. After optimization, the ELISA showed a half-maximum signal inhibition concentration (IC50) of 0.39 ng mL-1 in phosphate-buffered saline (pH 7, 20% MeOH) and a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.02 ng mL-1, which was more sensitive than the parent Nb-based ELISAs with IC50 and LOD values of 1.4 ng mL-1 and 0.1 ng mL-1, respectively. The Nb3-biotin amplified assay showed negligible cross-reactivity with its structural analogues (<0.1%). The average recoveries of 3-PBA from spiked canal water and soil samples ranged from 86.54-109.25% at 0.5-50 ng mL-1 (or ng g-1 (dw)). The 3-PBA residues in canal water and soil samples determined using this assay were in the ranges <LOD-1.46 ng mL-1 and <LOD-4.35 ng g-1 (dw), respectively, which correlated well with the results obtained using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry. The results suggest that multivalent Nb-biotin-SA amplified ELISA is a promising tool for the routine environmental screening of 3-PBA.
