Abstract
Immunoaffinity chromatography (IAC) combines the use of LC with the specific binding of antibodies or related agents. The resulting method can be used in assays for a particular target or for purification and concentration of analytes prior to further examination by another technique. This review discusses the history and principles of IAC and the various formats that can be used with this method. An overview is given of the general properties of antibodies and of antibody-production methods. The supports and immobilization methods used with antibodies in IAC and the selection of application and elution conditions for IAC are also discussed. Several applications of IAC are considered, including its use in purification, immunodepletion, direct sample analysis, chromatographic immunoassays and combined analysis methods. Recent developments include the use of IAC with CE or MS, ultrafast immunoextraction methods and the use of immunoaffinity columns in microanalytical systems.

Abstract
Electrochemical biosensors combine the sensitivity of electroanalytical methods with the inherent bioselectivity of the biological component. The biological component in the sensor recognizes its analyte resulting in a catalytic or binding event that ultimately produces an electrical signal monitored by a transducer that is proportional to analyte concentration. Some of these sensor devices have reached the commercial stage and are routinely used in clinical, environmental, industrial, and agricultural applications. The two classes of electrochemical biosensors, biocatalytic devices and affinity sensors, will be discussed in this critical review to provide an accessible introduction to electrochemical biosensors for any scientist (110 references).

Abstract
Immunosensing has proved to be a very interesting research area. This review discusses what has actually been achieved in the field of optical immunosensing for environmental screening, and what still needs to be done. The review is presented from a practical point of view. In terms of the basic design of the immunosensor, there is a trend towards decreasing assay time; indeed, this has been reduced from 15-20 minutes to less than 5 minutes. Another goal is to simplify the manifold, and label-free approaches combining indirect assay formats and the detection of antibody binding are popular. Rapid displacement assays have also been investigated thoroughly. In terms of some important features of immunosensing devices, the reusability of the sensing element has been studied in great depth, and working lifetimes of more than five hundred assays can now be found for all assay formats. Multianalyte assays are now being investigated, and current systems are able to monitor 2-3 target compounds, although this number is set to increase greatly (to >30) in the near future. In this sense, an increasing number of publications can be found on microarrays intended for multianalyte determinations. The application of immunosensing to real situations is the main challenge. Immunosensors are barely commercialized and are yet to be established as research or routine tools, due to a lack of validated protocols for a wide range of sample matrices. Regarding compounds considered as analytes, some significant pollutants such as dioxins or pharmaceuticals are rarely chosen as targets, although the current tendency is towards a broader spectrum of analytes. New immunoreagents should be raised for these compounds, for use in immunosensors that can be used as screening tools.

Abstract
The rapid detection of pathogenic organisms that cause foodborne illnesses is needed to insure food safety. Conventional methods for the detection of pathogens in foods are time-consuming and labor-intensive. New advanced rapid methods (i.e., polymerase chain reaction, DNA probes) are more sensitive and selective than conventional techniques, but many of these tests are inhibited by food components, rendering them dependent on slow cultural enrichment. The need for alternative methods that will rapidly separate and concentrate bacteria directly from food samples, thereby reducing the time required for these new rapid detection techniques, is evident. Separation and concentration methods extract target bacteria from interfering food components and/or concentrate bacteria to detectable levels. This review describes several methods used to separate and/or concentrate bacteria in food samples. Several methods discussed here, including centrifugation and immunomagnetic separation, have been successfully used, individually and in combination, to rapidly separate and/or concentrate bacteria from food samples in less time than is required for cultural enrichment.

Abstract
The development of an enantioselective flow-through chemiluminescence immunosensor for amino acids is described. The approach is based on a competitive assay using enantioselective antibodies. Two different instrumental approaches, a flow-injection (FIA) and a sequential-injection system (SIA), are used. Compared to the flow-injection technique, the sequential injection-mode showed better repeatability. Both systems use an immunoreactor consisting of a flow cell packed with immobilized haptens. The haptens (4-amino-L- or D-phenylalanine) are immobilized onto a hydroxysuccinimide-activated polymer (Affi-prep 10) via a tyramine spacer. Stereoselective antibodies, raised against 4-amino-L- or D-phenylalanine, are labeled with an acridinium ester. Stereoselective inhibition of binding of the acridinum-labeled antibodies to the immobilized hapten by amino acids takes place. Chiral recognition was observed not only for the hapten molecule but also for a series of different amino acids. One assay cycle including regeneration takes 6:30 min in the FIA mode and 4:40 min in the SIA mode. Using D-phenylalanine as a sample, the detection limit was found to be 6.13 pmol/ml (1.01 ng/ml) for the flow-injection immunoassay (FIIA) and 1.76 pmol/ml (0.29 ng/ml ) for the sequential-injection immunoassay (SIIA) which can be lowered to 0.22 pmol/ml (0.036 ng/ml) or 0.064 pmol/ml (0.01 ng/ml) by using a stopped flow system. The intra-assay repeatability was found to be about 5% RSD and the inter-assay repeatability below 6% (within 3 days).

Abstract
Novel polymer latexes were prepared that can be applied in several ways for the control and study of cell behavior on surfaces. Acrylic latexes with glass transitions ranging from -30 to 100 degrees C were synthesized by dispersion polymerization in a water and alcohol solution using an amphiphilic comb copolymer as a stabilizing agent. The comb had a poly(methyl methacrylate) backbone and hydrophilic poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) side chains, which served to stabilize the dispersion and create a robust hydrophilic coating on the final latex particles. The end groups of the comb stabilizer can be selectively functionalized to obtain latex particles with a controlled density of ligands tethered to their surfaces. Latexes were prepared with adhesion peptides (RGD) linked to the surface of the acrylic beads to induce attachment and spreading of cells. Coalesced films obtained from the RGD-bearing latex particles promoted attachment of WT NR6 fibroblasts, while films from unmodified latex particles were resistant to these cells. Additionally, RGD-linked beads were embedded in cell-resistant comb polymer films to create cell-interactive surfaces with discrete clustered-ligand domains. Cell attachment and morphology were seen to vary with the surface density of the RGD-bearing latex beads.

Abstract
Immunosensor systems have been developed for the rapid determination of 1-naphthol. In this work, the comparison of performance of immunosensors working in aqueous and organic media was done. Direct, indirect and capture formats were studied. Immunoreagents were immobilized on controlled pore glass (CPG), hidroxysuccinimide agarose gel or on azlactone Protein A/G supports. The Protein A/G-based sensor showed the best performance. In aqueous media, a LOD of 16.2 microg l(-1) and a DR of 33.7-586.6 microg l(-1) were achieved employing Tween 20 at a concentration ranging from 0.01 to 0.05% v/v. Maximum sensitivity was reached with 0.025% of surfactant. Binary mixtures of methanol or acetonitrile with aqueous buffer and ternary mixtures of methanol/isopropanol or ethyl acetate/methanol with the same buffer were studied as organic media. The mixture 50% MeOH-50% 20 mM sodium phosphate, pH 8, with 0.05% (v/v) Tween 20 resulted to be the best. A detection limit of 12.0 microg l(-1) and a dynamic range of 53.6-17,756.0 microg l(-1) were reached. The recycling of Protein A/G-based sensor working in this media was about 300 assays. Preconcentration factors around 250 were achieved using methanol as extracting solvent. It has been demonstrated that the technique can be successful in carrying out the analysis of low solubility in water analytes, such as 1-naphthol. The sensors developed can use higher concentrations of organic solvent (up to 50% methanol) compared to ELISA. On the other hand, the advantage of preconcentration can also be taken for the use of the same procedure as recommended for standard sample treatments.

Abstract
This paper describes the construction of a sensor for the direct monitoring of a recombinant protein, the human insulin analogue (MI3). The surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor incorporates an immobilised, sterilisable affinity-ligand that has been designed to bind to MI3. In practice, gold SPR devices were fabricated with; a 2D assembly of ethanethiol-modified ligand, a 2D mixed-assembly of ethanethiol-modified ligand and mercaptoethanol, a 3D coating of ligand-modified terminal-thiolated poly(vinyl)alcohol (PVA) or a 3D hydrogel of dextran coupled to a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) of mercaptohexaneundecanl-ol. Routine measurement of the concentration MI3 in the concentration range 1-100 mg/l in pilot-scale samples of crude fermentation broth have been achieved with high sensitivity levels and a high signal-to-noise ratio. Analysis can be achieved within < 10 min with the active surface being regenerable for at least 60 cycles over a 6 month period. The coupling of a robust, sterilisable and highly-selective sensor-coating with suitable transducer technologies promises to deliver sensors that are capable of direct in situ monitoring of biopharmaceuticals in industrial bioprocesses.

Abstract
The characterisation and selection of membranes by means of an immunofiltration assay is described. The chemical composition of the membranes was: nitro-cellulose, polyamide, polyvinylidene difluoride, polyethersulfone, cellulose acetate, regenerated cellulose, cellulose nitrate, and glass fibre. In order to characterise the membranes according to their binding capacity, immobilisation stability, sensitivity and hydrodynamic properties, two basic immunofiltration formats were performed. In both formats, enzyme label (horseradish peroxidase, HRP) and colorimetric detection were used. In the immobilised antibody format, three monoclonal antibodies (mAb) against the insecticide carbaryl were immobilised on the membranes by passive adsorption. In the immobilised hapten format, two haptens conjugated to bovine serum albumin (BSA) were immobilised. Immobilon-P was the best membrane with regard to the characterisation criteria and permitted the filtration of large volume (5.0 ml) through the membrane without release of the receptor. The immobilisation of the receptor (antibody or haptenic conjugate) was pH dependent. Good results with regard to mAb-antigen recognition, were obtained using 50 mM carbonate/bicarbonate buffer, pH 9.6. However, the most sensitive assays were achieved using, 10 mM phosphate buffer, 137 mM NaCl, 2.7 mM KCI (PBS), pH 7.4 as immobilisation buffer. Furthermore, all these results permit the choice of the best membrane for the rapid and sensitive determination of carbaryl. This study will assist the development of dipsticks, immunoelectrodes, membrane-based immunoreactors or immunoconcentration devices that are based on the use of membranes as immunosupports.

Abstract
The application of an inert membrane-based, enzyme-linked immunofiltration assay (ELIFA) to the characterization of immunosorbents suitable for flow immunosensor development is described. For direct assays, eight monoclonal antibodies (MAb) raised against the insecticide carbaryl were immobilized on three sorbents, namely, controlled pore glass (CPG), hydrazide derivatized agarose beads and a hydrophilic polymer with immobilized Protein A/G. The interaction between immobilized antibodies and antigen was directly detected using a carbaryl hapten conjugated to horseradish peroxidase. Immunosorbent characterization was based on both sensitivity and re-usability. Optimal immunosorbent regeneration was achieved using 0.1 M glycine/HCl, pH 2.0 as the desorbent solution. The best covalent immunosorbent was obtained by immobilizing LIB-CNA36 MAb on hydrazide derivatized agarose beads. The best immunosorbent obtained by reversible immobilization was LIB-CNH45 MAb on Protein A/G. Using this support the eventual irreversible denaturation of covalently immobilized MAbs was overcome. For indirect assays, N-hydroxisuccinimide derivatized agarose beads and glutaraldehyde-activated CPG were used as sorbents for hapten immobilization via the amino groups of a carrier protein. In this format, antigen-MAb interactions were detected using a peroxidase-conjugated rabbit anti-mouse immunoglobulin. The highest sensitivity was achieved by LIB-CNH45 MAb in combination with derivatized agarose beads. All these results demonstrated the suitability of ELIFA as a fast, precise and easy-to-use technique for immunosorbent selection.
