Highly selective and sensitive immunoassays for flurogestone acetate analysis in goat milk: From rational hapten design and antibody production to assay development. Food Chem 2024; 449:139198. [PMID: 38574526 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.139198] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/13/2023] [Revised: 03/11/2024] [Accepted: 03/29/2024] [Indexed: 04/06/2024]
Abstract
The preparation of high specificity and affinity antibodies is challenging due to limited information on characteristic groups of haptens in traditional design strategy. In this study, we first predicted characteristic groups of flurogestone acetate (FGA) using quantitative analysis of molecular surface combined with atomic charge distribution. Subsequently, FGA haptens were rationally designed to expose these identified characteristic groups fully. As a result, seven monoclonal antibodies were obtained with satisfactory performance, exhibiting IC50 values from 0.17 to 0.45 μg/L and negligible cross-reactivities below 1% to other 18 hormones. The antibody recognition mechanism further confirmed hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions involving predicted FGA characteristic groups and specific amino acids in the antibodies contributed to their high specificity and affinity. Finally, one selective and sensitive ic-ELISA was developed for FGA determination with a detection limit as low as 0.12 μg/L, providing an efficient tool for timely monitoring of FGA in goat milk samples.

Abstract
Marine biotoxins are metabolites produced by algae that can accumulate in shellfish or fish and enter organisms through the food chain, posing a serious threat to biological health. Therefore, accurate and rapid detection is an urgent requirement for food safety. Although various detection methods, including the mouse bioassay, liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry, and cell detection methods, and protein phosphatase inhibition assays have been developed in the past decades, the current detection methods cannot fully meet these demands. Among these methods, the outstanding immunoassay virtues of high sensitivity, reliability, and low cost are highly advantageous for marine biotoxin detection in complex samples. In this work, we review the recent 5-year progress in marine biotoxin immunodetection technologies such as optical immunoassays, electrochemical immunoassays, and piezoelectric immunoassays. With the assistance of immunoassays, the detection of food-related marine biotoxins can be implemented for ensuring public health and preventing food poisoning. In addition, the immunodetection technique platforms including lateral flow chips and microfluidic chips are also discussed. We carefully investigate the advantages and disadvantages for each immunoassay, which are compared to demonstrate the guidance for selecting appropriate immunoassays and platforms for the detection of marine biotoxins. It is expected that this review will provide insights for the further development of immunoassays and promote the rapid progress and successful translation of advanced immunoassays with food safety detection.

Abstract
Abusive use of β-agonists as feed additives for animals and medication is detrimental to human health and food safety. Conventional assays are restricted to a single type of β-agonists detection and cannot match the multiplexing features to perform automated, high throughput, and rapid quantitative analysis in real samples. In this research, we develop a portable automated chip system (PACS) with highly integrated automated devices in conjunction with portable microfluidic chips to provide simultaneous point-of-care testing of multiple β-agonists in the field, simplifying complex manual methods, shortening assay times, and improving sensitivity. Specifically, silicon film is used as reaction substrates for immobilizing the conjugates of β-agonists to increase the sensitivity of the assay result. Then, the PACS with a chemiluminescence imaging detector is established for automatic high-throughput and sensitive detection of Clenbuterol, Ractopamine, and Salbutamol based on the indirect immunoassay. Newly developed chip with high mixing performance can improve the sensitivity of target determination. Multiplex assays were carried out using the developed system for Clenbuterol, Ractopamine, and Salbutamol with a limit of detection of 54 pg mL-1,59 pg mL-1, and 93 pg mL-1, respectively. Except for sample preparation and coating, the detection in the PACS takes less than 47 min. A satisfactory sample recovery (86.33%-108.12%) was obtained, validating the reliability and practical applicability of this PACS. Meanwhile, the PACS enables sensitive and rapid detection of multiple β-agonists in farms or markets where lacking advanced laboratory facilities.

Abstract
Illegal use of ractopamine (RAC) in the food industry has dire consequences for health which should be curbed by inexpensive on-site checks. In this study, four advanced nanostructures of AuNPs were examined for this purpose. For the first time, a novel cost-effective colorimetric opto-sensor based on gold nanoparticles in aqueous solution was developed and successfully utilized for the recognition of RAC in real samples. The colorimetric chemosensor based on AuNPs-CysA exhibited a linear range of 0.1 μM to 0.01 M with a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.001 μM. Also, using AuNPs-DDT as a photonic probe two ranges of linearity of 0.01 to 50 μM and 0.005 to 0.01 M were obtained (LOD = 1 nM). The outstanding features of the utilized nanostructures are the simple preparation, the suitable stability of AuNPs-CysA and the excellent selectivity of AuNPs-DDT toward RAC recognition. Finally, the engineered colorimetric systems were combined with a simple and inexpensive optimized microfluidic glass fiber-based device. This work paves the way for devising inexpensive and efficient on-site recognition devices for food safety checks.

Abstract
For a long time, people have suffered from uncertainty, complexity, and a low success rate in generating and screening antibodies against small molecules, which have become the core bottlenecks of immunochemistry. Here, the influence of antigen preparation on antibody generation was investigated at both molecular and submolecular levels. Neoepitopes (amide-containing neoepitopes) formed in the preparation of complete antigens are one of the most important factors limiting the efficiency of generating hapten-specific antibodies, which was verified by different haptens, carrier proteins, and conjugation conditions. Amide-containing neoepitopes present electron-dense structural components on the surface of prepared complete antigens and, therefore, induce the generation of the corresponding antibody with much higher efficiency than target hapten. Crosslinkers should be carefully selected and not overdosed. According to these results, some misconceptions in the conventional anti-hapten antibody production were clarified and corrected. By controlling the content of 1-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC) during the synthesis of immunogen to limit the formation of amide-containing neoepitopes, the efficiency of hapten-specific antibody generation could be significantly improved, which verified the correctness of the conclusion and provided an efficient strategy for antibody preparation. The result of the work is of scientific significance in the preparation of high-quality antibodies against small molecules.

Abstract
To meet high-throughput screening of the residues of sulfonamides (SAs) with high sensitivity toward sulfamethazine (SM2) in milk samples, a new highly sensitive lateral flow immunoassay (LFA) based on amorphous carbon nanoparticles (ACNs) was developed. First, a group-specific monoclonal antibody 10H7 (mAb 10H7) that could recognize 25 SAs with high sensitivity toward SM2 (IC50 value of 0.18 ng/mL) was prepared based on H1 as an immune hapten and H4 as a heterologous coating hapten. Then, mAb 10H7 was conjugated to ACNs as an immune probe for LFA development. Under the optimized conditions, the LFA could detect 25 SAs with the cut-off value toward SM2 of 2 ng/mL, which could meet the requirement for detection of SAs. In addition, the LFA developed was also used for screening SAs' residues in real milk samples, with results being consistent with HPLC-MS/MS. Thus, this LFA can be used as a high-throughput screening tool for detection of SAs.

Abstract
Aminopyrine is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug only for medical purposes, however, it has been illegally added in traditional Chinese herbal teas for fraud activity recently. In this study, a specific antibody against aminopyrine with IC50 of 3.00 ng/mL was obtained for the first time by a rational hapten design. Furthermore, an ultrasensitive gold nanoparticles immunochromatographic assay (AuNPs-ICA) for determination of aminopyrine based on a portable reader was firstly developed, with cut-off value of 100.00 ng/mL, limit of detection (LOD) of 4.80 ng/mL and limit of quantification (LOQ) of 5.71 ng/mL for herbal tea, respectively. The recovery rates ranged from 93.21 % to 105.61 %, with inter-assay coefficient of variation (CV) from 1.08 % to 3.82 %. Additionally, 24 blind samples were examined simultaneously by AuNPs-ICA and LC-MS/MS, demonstrating a good consistency for each other. The proposed AuNPs-ICA is an ultrasensitive and reliable tool for on-site surveillance screening of fraud additives in herbal tea.

Abstract
Antibody is the key biomolecule that governing the sensitivity and specificity of an immunoassay for chemical compound, also named hapten molecule. Obviously, predication of hapten effectiveness before chemical synthesis is beneficial to boost success, save cost and improve controllability. Here, we proposed and evaluated an epitopephore based rational hapten design (ERHD) to assist antibody production to chemical compound, combining theoretical evidence and then experimental validation by using dinitrocarbanilide (DNC) as a model analyte. Briefly, epitopephores of DNC were firstly generated by HipHop algorithm after features mapping. A homemade drug database also containing reported fragment haptens (HFR) and new designed full hapten (HFU) were constructed, and then was virtually screened by using generated epitopephore followed by structural analysis and visual inspection. The DNC haptens based on the selected hits were further identified by Density Functional Theory before total synthesis. To prove and clarify the usability of the ERHD, two retrieved HFU haptens, one non-retrieved HFU hapten and three non-retrieved HFR haptens were all selected to produce monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) for comparison purpose. A maximal 6000-fold increased affinity of mAb from retrieved HFU than HFR was observed, while, non-retrieved HFU failed to produce antibody to DNC. More importantly, mAbs from HFU haptens provided highly specificity to DNC, while, mAbs from HFR haptens could recognize 15 others analogues. We then constructed antibody structure and investigated molecular recognition of the mAbs to DNC, well supporting the rationality of the ERHD. Lastly, an icELISA was developed for DNC with an IC50 value as low as 0.19 ng mL-1 with high specificity, which has never achieved before.

The influence of hapten spacer arm length on antibody response and immunoassay development. Anal Chim Acta 2023; 1239:340699.

Abstract
Antibodies against small molecules with high titer and high affinity are always pursued in the field of vaccines for drugs of abuse, antidotes to toxins and immunoassays in medical, environmental, and food safety. The exposure degree of the target molecule to the immune system is critical to induce a strongly specific antibody response, thus, the spacer arm length between the target molecule and carrier protein plays an important role. However, the influence of spacer arm length on antibody titer, affinity, and assay performance is not yet clear and highly demanded to be addressed. In the present study, we proposed a model study to answer the question by using two typical small molecules, melamine and p-nitroaniline, which were introduced by varied spacer arms with increasing alkane linear length from 2 to 12 carbon atoms brick by brick. The spacer arm lengths of the haptens were obtained by computational chemistry. The titer and affinity of mouse antisera were analyzed and compared, showing that all haptens with spacer arms of 6-8 carbon atoms, i.e. 6.3-8.8 Å in length, induced strong antibodies represented by the highest titer and affinity without exception, while the haptens with spacer arms of 2-4 carbon atoms and 10-12 carbon atoms, i.e. 1.5-3.9 Å and 11.3-13.9 Å in length, failed to induce high-quality antibody response. Moreover, the titer and sensitivity of the subsequently developed immunoassays were significantly affected by using coating haptens with different spacer arm lengths, and coating haptens with a spacer arm of 6.3-8.8 Å in length delivered the optimum detection performance. The antibody recognition mechanism study further confirmed that the hapten spacer arm length had a critical effect on the recognition properties of the induced antibody, which should be interactive with the spacer arm each other. This study showed that the hapten with appropriate spacer arm length is important to antibody response and immunoassay development, providing a valuable and general clue for the rational design of hapten.

Abstract
Highly sensitive and accurate screening of ractopamine (RAC) residue in animal urine is greatly needed to ensure food security. The detection performance of immunoassay for RAC was always seriously harmed by the antibody inactivation derived from urea. Here, we first discovered one rabbit monoclonal antibody (RmAb) to RAC with a high affinity of 0.007 ng mL-1 and a surprising urea tolerance of 3 M urea, which is beneficial for developing robustly developed immunoassay in urine without sample pretreatment. The limits of detection of developed indirect competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay based on RmAb1 for RAC were 0.0042-0.014 μg L-1 with the coefficient of variation below 11.7% in swine, sheep, and cow urine, significantly improved 10-100-fold in sensitivity. Moreover, the urea-tolerant mechanism of RmAb1 showed that more non-polar amino acids, more hydrogen bond donors on the surface, and preponderant Pi interaction of antibody-RAC all contributed to the stability of the RmAb1 in a high concentration of urea.

Abstract
In recent years the use of ractopamine (RAC), originally synthesized for the treatment of respiratory diseases, is on the rise as a dietary supplement in animals. The excessive use of RAC has some adverse effects on human health. Hence, the demand for simple, easy-to-use, and expendable devices for RAC recognition, even in remote areas, is felt more than ever before. This need prompted us to devise a straightforward colorimetric system for RAC recognition based on the etching effect of RAC on AgNPrs. This nanoprobe is a very advanced materials with great optical properties and stability, which could be used unprecedentedly without any combination or reagents for RAC recognition. Considering the needs and advantages, a simple colorimetric chemosensor for the quantification of RAC was designed and applied to a chicken sample. The designed chemosensor was integrated with an optimized microfluidic paper-based colorimetric device (μPCD), creating a suitable tool for the determination of RAC based on a time/color pattern. The analytical metrics for this simple colorimetric chemosensing regime comprise a best colorimetric LLOQ of 100 μM in solution with 10 μM of μPCD, a spectroscopic LLOQ of 10 nM, and a broad linearity range of 0.1–10 000 μM, which are outstanding compared with other colorimetric techniques. The main remarkable features of this study include the first utilization of AgNPrs with high stability and excellent optical properties without any reagent as an optical sensing probe and optimized μPCD toward RAC recognition and the innovative time/color semi-analytical recognition method. Moreover, the prepared portable μPCD modified with AgNPrs could be a prized candidate for commercialization due to the benefits of the low-cost materials used, like paper and paraffin, and the simple instructions for μPCD preparation. This report could be a pioneering work, inspiring simple and effective on-site semi-analytical recognition devices for harmful substances or illegal drugs, which simply consist of a piece of lightweight paper and one drop of the required reagent. In recent years the use of ractopamine (RAC), originally synthesized for the treatment of respiratory diseases, is on the rise as a dietary supplement in animals.![]()

Abstract
The consumption of shellfish contaminated with brevetoxins, a family of ladder-frame polyether toxins formed during blooms of the marine dinoflagellate Karenia brevis, can cause neurotoxic poisoning, leading to gastroenteritis and neurotoxic effects. To rapidly monitor brevetoxin levels in oysters, we generated a broad-spectrum antibody against brevetoxin 2 (PbTx-2), 1 (PbTx-1), and 3 (PbTx-3) and developed a rapid indirect competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (icELISA). PbTx-2 was reacted with carboxymethoxylamine hemihydrochloride (CMO) to generate a PbTx-2-CMO hapten and reacted with succinic anhydride (HS) to generate the PbTx-2-HS hapten. These haptens were conjugated to keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) to prepare immunogen and coating antigen reagents, respectively, using the active ester method. After immunization and cell fusion, a broad-spectrum monoclonal antibody (mAb) termed mAb 1D3 was prepared. The 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) values of the icELISA for PbTx-2, PbTx-1, and PbTx-3 were 60.71, 52.61, and 51.83 μg/kg, respectively. Based on the broad-spectrum mAb 1D3, an icELISA was developed to determine brevetoxin levels. Using this approach, the limit of detection (LOD) for brevetoxin was 124.22 μg/kg and recoveries ranged between 89.08% and 115.00%, with a coefficient of variation below 4.25% in oyster samples. These results suggest that our icELISA is a useful tool for the rapid monitoring of brevetoxins in oyster samples.

Abstract
This study aimed to detect and monitor total Zearalenone (ZEN) and its five homologs (ZENs) in cereals and feed. The monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) with a high affinity and broad class specificity against ZENs were prepared, and the conditions of a heterologous indirect competitive ELISA (icELISA) were preliminarily optimized based on the ZEN mAbs. The immunogen ZEN-BSA was synthesized using the oxime active ester method (OAE) and identified using infrared (IR) and ultraviolet (UV). The coating antigen ZEN-OVA was obtained via the 1,4-butanediol diglycidyl ether method (BDE). Balb/c mice were immunized using a high ZEN-BSA dose with long intervals and at multiple sites. A heterologous indirect non-competitive ELISA (inELISA) and an icELISA were used to screen the suitable cell fusion mice and positive hybridoma cell lines. The ZEN mAbs were prepared by inducing ascites in vivo. The standard curve was established, and the sensitivity and specificity of the ZEN mAbs were determined under the optimized icELISA conditions. ZEN-BSA was successfully synthesized at a conjugation ratio of 17.2:1 (ZEN: BSA). Three hybridoma cell lines, 2D7, 3C2, and 4A10, were filtered, and their mAbs corresponded to an IgG1 isotype with a κ light chain. The mAbs titers were between (2.56 to 5.12) × 102 in supernatants and (1.28 to 5.12) × 105 in the ascites. Besides, the 50% inhibitive concentration (IC50) values were from 18.65 to 31.92 μg/L in the supernatants and 18.12 to 31.46 μg/L in the ascites. The affinity constant (Ka) of all of the mAbs was between 4.15 × 109 and 6.54 × 109 L/mol. The IC50 values of mAb 2D7 for ZEN, α-ZEL, β-ZEL, α-ZAL, β-ZAL and ZAN were 17.23, 16.71, 18.27, 16.39, 20.36 and 15.01 μg/L, and their cross-reactivities (CRs, %) were 100%, 103.11%, 94.31%, 105.13%, 84.63%, and 114.79%, respectively, under the optimized icELISA conditions. The limit of detection (LOD) for ZEN was 0.64 μg/L, and its linear working range was between 1.03 and 288.55 μg/L. The mAbs preparation and the optimization of icELISA conditions promote the potential development of a rapid test ELISA kit, providing an alternative method for detecting ZEN and its homologs in cereals and feed.

Hapten Design and Monoclonal Antibody to Fluoroacetamide, a Small and Highly Toxic Chemical. Biomolecules 2020; 10:biom10070986.

Abstract
Fluoroacetamide (FAM) is a small (77 Da) and highly toxic chemical, formerly used as a rodenticide and potentially as a poison by terrorists. Poisoning with FAM has occurred in humans, but few reliably rapid detection methods and antidotes have been reported. Therefore, producing a specific antibody to FAM is not only critical for the development of a fast diagnostic but also a potential treatment. However, achieving this goal is a great challenge, mainly due to the very low molecular weight of FAM. Here, we design two groups of FAM haptens for the first time, maximally exposing the fluorine or amino groups, with the aid of linear aliphatic or phenyl-contained spacer arms. Interestingly, whereas the hapten with fluorine at the far end of the hapten did not induce an antibody response to FAM, the hapten with an amino group at the far end and phenyl-contained spacer arm triggered a significantly specific antibody response. Finally, a monoclonal antibody (mAb) named 5D11 was successfully obtained with an IC50 value of 97 μg mL−1 and negligible cross-reactivities to the other nine functional and structural analogs.

Abstract
Developing easy-to-use and miniaturized sensors for in-field monitoring of targets which is related to human health is necessary. Ractopamine (RAC) is a feed additive with serious side effects that is forbidden in many countries. This study reports the fabrication of an impedimetric aptasensor for ultrasensitive and selective detection of the RAC in human biological fluids. Accordingly, an efficient nanocomposites was synthesized by a beneficial combination of graphene quantum dots (GQDs), quantum dots (QDs) and silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) for modifying a glassy carbon electrode (GCE). This nanocomposite is promising to present a synergistic effect in the increase of the active surface area of the modified electrode to more load the biocapture of the target. Next, the RAC-binding aptamer (Apt) was attached to the AgNPs/QDs@GQDs/GCE surface and a sensitive layer for the RAC detection was embedded. A RAC-Apt complex was formed upon adding the RAC and the changes of the electrochemical behavior were studied by some electrochemical techniques such as electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Under optimal conditions, the charge transfer resistance (Rct) value was increased linearly with increasing of the RAC concentrations in the range of 1 fM to 901.4 nM. Limit of detection (LOD) was calculated to be 330 aM which is superior by other reported electrochemical methods in the RAC sensing. The applicability of the aptasensor was tested in human urine and blood serum as the real samples and satisfactory results of specificity were achieved. It seems that the proposed strategy not only provides a new ultrasensitive strategy for RAC detection but also expands the application of the sensing interface to develop other aptasensors by changing the Apt sequence.

Abstract
Enzyme labeling of an antigen or an antibody helps to visualize and amplify the signal and is an important reagent used in immunoassays for the detection of a target of interest. In this research, soybean peroxidase (SBP), a less commonly used enzyme reporter, was compared in immunoassays with the two most commonly used reagents, horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP). The enzyme-antibody conjugates were evaluated by their performance in an indirect competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (icELISA) and in an indirect competitive chemiluminescent enzyme immunoassay (icCLEIA) for ractopamine (RAC). The results revealed that the more affordable SBP offers a long-lasting chemiluminescent signal, which outperformed ALP and HRP. SBP-antibody conjugate (SBP-Ab) based immunoassays produced lower limits of detection (LODs) and better accuracy in the detection of RAC in animal urine samples. Additionally, SBP-Ab has advantages in being more resistant to heat, acid and organic solvents. These results suggest that SBP could be a potentially excellent alternative to HRP and ALP for the development of immunoassay in food safety field.

Novel hapten design, antibody recognition mechanism study, and a highly sensitive immunoassay for diethylstilbestrol in shrimp. Anal Bioanal Chem 2019; 411:5255-5265.

Abstract
Over the past few years, there has been a lack of progress in the quality of diethylstilbestrol (DES) antibodies used in immunoassay. In this study, a new immunizing hapten was designed for remarkably sensitive and specific antibody generation against diethylstilbestrol. By introducing a benzene ring instead of the traditional linear chain alkane as the hapten spacer, a more specific immune reaction was induced in the process of immunization. The developed polyclonal antibodies were characterized using the indirect competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (icELISA). Under optimized conditions, the half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) of the best polyclonal antibody was 0.14 ng/mL and it displayed low cross-reactions (CRs) with the structural analogs such as hexestrol (HEX) and dienestrol (DI). The molecular modeling and quantum chemical computation revealed that the lowest CR of the DES antibody to DI was mainly due to the huge three-dimensional conformational difference between DES and DI. Finally, a highly sensitive icELISA method based on the polyclonal antibody was developed for the determination of DES in shrimp tissue. The limit of detection (LOD) was as low as 0.2 μg/kg in shrimp and the recoveries in the spiked samples ranged from 83.4 to 90.8% with the coefficient of variation less than 13.8%. These results indicated that the use of an aromatic ring as the immunizing hapten spacer arm could be a potential strategy for the enhancement of anti-DES antibody sensitivity, and the established icELISA was applicable to the trace detection of DES in shrimp.

Abstract
The use of the heterologous competitive strategy has become a vital method to improve the sensitivity of ELISA. In this work, we prepared an anti-enrofloxacin (ENR) mAb with ENR-bovine serum albumin (BSA) as immunogen. The molecular descriptors of quinolones were then used to screen heterologous coating antigens for the detection of ENR based on an ensemble learning method to improve the sensitivity of the ELISA. Results indicated that 6 of the 7 selected heterologous competitive antigens could enhance the sensitivity of ELISA. The ELISA sensitivity for the detection of ENR with sarafloxacin-BSA as heterologous coating antigen was improved 10-fold (in PBS) and 6-fold (in milk) compared with that with ENR-BSA as homologous antigen. The strategy can effectively screen suitable heterologous competitive antigens to improve the sensitivity of ELISA, followed by preparation of mAb with no additional modification to the corresponding immunogen.

Abstract
In this work, a novel conjugate of ractopamine and bovine serum albumin (RAC-BSA) has been developed via the Mannich reaction, with a mole coupling ratio for RAC-BSA of 9:1. The proposed conjugation method provides a simple and one-step method with the use of fewer reagents compared with other conjugation methods for competitive immunoassays. RAC-BSA conjugation was used to fabricate a competitive lateral flow strip test for RAC detection in animal feed. For sample preparation, RAC was spiked in swine feed purchased from the local markets in Thailand, and methanol and running buffer at a volume ratio of 10:90 was used as extraction buffer. The procedures for sample preparation were completed within 25 min. Under optimal conditions, the limit of detection (LOD), assessed by the naked eye within 5 min, was found to be 1 ng/g. A semi-quantitative analysis was also conducted using a smart phone and computer software, with a linearity of 0.075-0.750 ng/g, calculated LOD of 0.10 ng/g, calculated limit of quantitation of 0.33 ng/g, and good correlation of 0.992. The recoveries were found in the range of 96.4%-103.7% with a relative standard deviation of 2.5%-3.6% for intra- and inter-assays. Comparison of the results obtained by the strip test with those obtained by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay had a good agreement in terms of accuracy. Furthermore, this strip test exhibited highly specific RAC detection without cross reactivity with related compounds. Therefore, the RAC-BSA conjugation via the Mannich reaction can be accepted as a one-step and easy conjugation method and applied to the competitive lateral flow strip test.

Abstract
A highly sensitive, selective and simple method was proposed for colorimetric detection of ractopamine on the basis of the interaction between ractopamine and sulfanilic acid-modified gold-silver alloy nanoparticles (AuAgNPs). The AuAgNPs were prepared by the reduction of HAuCl4 and AgNO3 with sodium citrate in aqueous medium and further modified by sulfanilic acid. The interaction of ractopamine with sulfanilic acid induced rapid aggregation of sulfanilic acid-modified AuAgNPs along with an optical colour change, leading to precise quantification which could be detected by absorptiometry. Under the optimum conditions, the absorbance ratio (A600/A435) of sulfanilic acid-modified AuAgNPs exhibited a linear relationship with the concentration of ractopamine in the range of 4.5-31.6 ng/mL. The detection limit of ractopamine was 1.5 ng/mL. The established novel colorimetric detection method showed high selectivity towards ractopamine. The method was successfully applied to detect ractopamine in spiked pork, swine feed and swine urine samples with excellent recoveries from 94.4% to 112.5%. These results demonstrated that the proposed new method has a good potential for practical applications.

Abstract
An antibody with broad specificity and principally depending on hapten structure and size is a key reagent for developing a class-selective immunoassay. In the present study, three new generic haptens of antibacterial synergists (ASGs) were proposed using trimethoprim as the starting molecule. These haptens contained carboxyl groups on the meta position of trimethoxybenzene for conjugating to protein, while, the common moiety of ASGs, i.e., diaminopyrimidine, was intentionally and maximally exposed to the immune system in animals in order to induce antibodies with broad specificity against ASGs. Five monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) were finally obtained, and 5C4 from the hapten with a short spacer arm, named Hapten A, showed not only uniform broad specificity but also high affinity to all five ASGs. We further determined the possible recognition mechanism of mAbs in terms of conformational and electronic aspects. An indirect competitive ELISA (icELISA)-based 5C4 was established and exhibited IC50 values of 0.067-0.139 μg L-1 with cross-reactivity of 48.2%-418.7% for the five ASGs in buffer under optimal conditions. The calculated limits of detection of the icELISA for chicken and milk were 0.06-0.8 μg kg-1 and 0.05-0.6 μg L-1, respectively. The recoveries in spiked chicken and milk samples were 75.2%-101.4% with a coefficient of variation less than 14.3%. In summary, we have developed, for the first time, a rapid and reliable icELISA for ASGs with significantly improved sensitivity and class selectivity.

Abstract
A novel label-free protocol was developed for measuring the affinity between ractopamine and its monoclonal antibody (McAb) based on microdialysis (MD) on-line sampling integrated with flow injection chemiluminescent detection. In this study, unbound ractopamine was sampled by MD probe from homogeneous immunoreaction equilibrious systems, and then real-time quantified using flow injection chemiluminescent detection. The quantified concentrations of unbound ractopamine in the immunoreaction equilibrious systems were treated with Scatchard analysis and Klotz analysis to obtain the affinity constant. The mean recovery of MD probe for sampling ractopamine was found to be 24.2%. The affinity constants calculated by Scatchard analysis and Klotz analysis both were 1.0 × 106 M-1, indicating that the investigated ractopamine mouse McAb was a medium-affinity antibody. The result showed good agreement with that obtained from thiocyanate elution test. This protocol for measuring antibody affinity is free of protein conjugation of hapten and enzyme labeling of McAb. Therefore it avoids affinity decrease resulting from steric hindrance, occupancy of the antigenic determinants, and deactivation of antibody, which has been frequently encountered in the reported conventional approaches. It opens up a new pathway for direct measurement of antibody affinity with a facile, rapid, accurate and low-cost approach.

Abstract
In this work, high affinity polyclonal antibodies for ribavirin (RBV) from new haptens were prepared and were used to analyse RBV residues in chicken muscle, eggs and duck muscle. The new haptens were synthesised with different spacers, and the best antibody was obtained with an IC50 value as low as 0.61 ng/mL in indirect competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The cross-reactivities with another five antiviral drugs including amantadine, rimantadine, moroxydine, zanamivir and oseltamivir were less than 0.1%, which indicated the good specificity of the antibody. An ELISA was developed based on the antibody and applied to detect RBV in multi-food matrices. The sample preparation prior to detection only needed simple dilution after trichloroacetic acid extraction. The limits of detection were 1.07, 1.18 and 1.03 μg/kg in chicken muscle, eggs and duck muscle, respectively. Recoveries ranged from 89.0% to 112.7% with coefficients of variation below 13.0%. Ten blind samples of chicken muscle were analysed simultaneously by ELISA and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry, and a good correlation between the methods was observed. The results indicated that the high affinity antibody could be applied for the simple and fast detection of RBV in multi-food matrices.

Abstract
To develop a sensitive fluorescence polarization immunoassay (FPIA) for screening the zearalenone class of mycotoxins in maize, two new monoclonal antibodies with uniform affinity to the zearalenone class and four fluorescein-labeled tracers were prepared. After careful selection of appropriate tracer-antibody pairs in terms of sensitivity and specificity, a FPIA that could simultaneously detect the zearalenone class with similar sensitivity was developed. Under optimum conditions, the half maximal inhibitory concentrations of the FPIA in buffer were 1.89, 1.97, 2.43, 1.99, 2.27, and 2.44 μg/L for zearalenone, α-zearalenol, β-zearalenol, α-zearalanol, β-zearalanol, and zearalanone, respectively. The limit of detection of FPIA for the zearalenone class was around 12 μg/kg in maize, and the recoveries ranged from 84.6 to 113.8%, with coefficients of variation below 15.3% in spiked samples. Finally, the FPIA was applied for screening naturally contaminated maize samples, and the results indicated a good correlation with that of high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry.

Abstract
An improved SELEX technique was developed for selecting aptamers against ractopamine (RAC) by immobilizing ssDNA library on the magnetic beads. After sixteen selection rounds, a highly enriched ssDNA pool was sequenced and nine families were grouped according to their homology and secondary structures analysis. One representative aptamer candidate from each family was picked out for binding affinity identification by graphene oxide (GO) adsorption platform. The aptamer RAC-6 was demonstrated as the optimal aptamer with high specificity and dissociation constant (Kd) value of 54.22 ± 8.02 nM. To prove the potential application of aptamer RAC-6 in the quantitative determination of RAC, a fluorescent bioassay with aptamer RAC-6 was developed. The linear range for RAC was from 0.10 ng/mL to 100 ng/mL and the limit of detection was as low as 0.04 ng/mL. Furthermore, the method was validated for the analysis of RAC spiked real samples, and the recoveries were between 82.57% and 104.65%.

Abstract
Label selection is a critical factor for improving the sensitivity of lateral flow assay. Time-resolved fluorescent nanobeads, fluorescent submicrospheres, quantum dots, and colloidal gold-based lateral flow assay (TRFN-LFA, FM-LFA, QD-LFA, and CG-LFA) were first systematically compared for the quantitative detection of ractopamine in swine urine based on competitive format. The limits of detection (LOD) of TRFN-LFA, FM-LFA, QD-LFA, and CG-LFA were 7.2, 14.7, 23.6, and 40.1pg/mL in swine urine samples, respectively. The sensitivity of TRFN-LFA was highest. In the quantitative determination of ractopamine (RAC) in swine urine samples, TRFN-LFA exhibited a wide linear range of 5pg/mL to 2500pg/mL with a reliable coefficient of correlation (R2=0.9803). Relatively narrow linear ranges of 10-500pg/mL (FM-LFA) and 25-2500pg/mL (QD-LFA and CG-LFA) were acquired. Approximately 0.005µg of anti-RAC poly antibody (pAb) was used in each TRFN-LFA test strip, whereas 0.02, 0.054, and 0.15µg of pAb were used in each of the FM-LFA, QD-LFA, and CG-LFA test strips, respectively. In addition, TRFN-LFA required the least RAC-BSA antigens and exhibited the shortest detection time compared with the other lateral flow assays. Analysis of the RAC in swine urine samples showed that the result of TRFN-LFA was consistent with that of liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) and a commercial enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kit.
