Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of immunoassay technology, and in particular to artificial complex antigens, broad-spectrum detection antibodies, and ELISA detection methods for sulfonamides and tetracycline antibiotics. Background Technology

[0002] Antibiotics can enter the environment at any stage from production to consumption. Residual antibiotics in the environment can lead to the development of antibiotic resistance genes and alter the microbial ecosystem. Furthermore, due to accumulation in the food chain, antibiotics can cause unpredictable harm to humans. Currently, antibiotic pollution of water bodies is increasingly serious, with medical and health services, livestock farming, and aquaculture being the main sources of antibiotic pollution in environmental waters. Although the degree of pollution varies greatly from place to place, the detection frequency is high. In my country, the types of antibiotics with the highest detected concentrations are, in descending order: sulfonamides, tetracyclines, macrolides, quinolones, and chloramphenicol. Therefore, developing rapid and efficient detection methods for antibiotics is particularly important.

[0003] Currently, the main methods for detecting antibiotics in water bodies, both domestically and internationally, are instrumental analysis methods. These methods have high requirements for instrument conditions, and the pretreatment procedures are relatively complex and time-consuming. ELISA, utilizing antigen-antibody specific reactions, effectively compensates for the shortcomings of instrumental analysis methods. Because it does not require expensive equipment and offers high specificity, high sensitivity, and simple and rapid operation, it has shown unique advantages in on-site screening and rapid detection of large numbers of samples.

[0004] Current research has explored ELISA methods for detecting antibiotics in water. These methods all employ a carrier protein coupled with a hapten to prepare an artificial antigen, which is then used to immunize animals to prepare specific polyclonal / monoclonal antibodies, leading to the development of corresponding ELISA detection methods. However, given the wide variety of antibiotics, a single ELISA method can only measure the content of one type of antibiotic. If it is necessary to determine the total amount of a particular class of antibiotics or several classes of antibiotics in a sample, multiple measurements are required, followed by data aggregation, inevitably increasing workload and extending detection time. Summary of the Invention

However, these should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0103] Example 1: Synthesis of Artificial Complex Antigen

[0104] Prepare a methanol / PBS (pH = 7.2, 0.01 mol / L) mixed solution at a volume ratio of 1:1. Add 80 mg SA to 20 mL of the methanol / PBS mixed solution and mix thoroughly. Add 1.4 g BSA or 0.6 g OVA to 50 mL of PBS solution and mix thoroughly. Add 1 mL of 25% GA and stir at room temperature for 4 h to prepare the artificial antigen SA-BSA / SA-OVA. Then add 200 mg TC, mix thoroughly, and add another 1 mL of 25% GA. Stir at room temperature for 4 h to prepare the composite artificial antigen SA-BSA-TC / SA-OVA-TC. Place the solution in a dialysis bag and dialyze with PBS (pH = 7.2, 0.01 mol / L) at 4 °C for 72 h, changing the solution every 12 hours. After dialysis, determine the protein content of the dialysis product and store it at -20 °C for later use.

[0105] The synthetic route of the artificial composite antigen of this invention is as follows: Figure 1 As shown.

[0106] After diluting the composite artificial antigen to 1 mg / mL (based on protein concentration), ultraviolet spectroscopy was performed, and the results are as follows. Figure 2 As shown. By Figure 2 It can be seen that SA-BSA-TC and SA-OVA-TC have the light absorption characteristics of BSA, OVA, TC and SA. At the same time, the maximum absorption peak has shifted to a certain extent, which shows its own characteristics, indicating that SA and TC are successfully coupled with BSA and OVA.

[0107] Example 2: Preparation of broad-spectrum detection antibodies

[0108] BALB / c female mice were immunized using the immunization protocol shown in Table 1. Each mouse was immunized four times on days 0, 3, 28, and 49. For each immunization, 100 μg, 50 μg, 50 μg, and 50 μg of artificial complex antigen were mixed with equal volumes of FCA, FCA, and FICA to prepare immunizing agents. Mice were immunized by subcutaneous injection at multiple sites on the back of the neck.

[0109] Table 1 Immunization regimen

[0110]

[0111] Blood was collected from mouse tails to obtain antiserum. The titer of the antiserum against SAs and TCs antibiotics was determined using an indirect noncompetitive ELISA (inELISA), and the sensitivity to SAs and TCs antibiotics was determined using an indirect competitive ELISA (icELISA). This method was used to detect the specificity of the composite antibody against SAs and TCs antibiotics. Antibody IgG was separated using a saturated ammonium sulfate precipitation method.

[0112] The specific steps for determining antiserum titer are as follows (in ELISA):

[0113] ① Coating: Dilute the coating antigen to 1 μg / mL with coating buffer, add 100 μL / well to the microplate, and coat overnight at 4℃;

[0114] ② Blocking: Pour out the liquid from the wells of the microplate and blot dry. Add 250 μL of blocking buffer to each well, incubate at 37°C for 1 hour, pour out the liquid from the wells, and blot dry. Add 200 μL of washing buffer to each well, gently shake for 90 seconds, pour out the liquid from the wells, and blot dry. Repeat washing 3 times.

[0115] ③ Add the serum to be tested: Dilute the antiserum serially from 1:4000 to 1:256000 using antibody dilution buffer, 100 μL / well. Incubate at 37℃ for 1 h, pour out the liquid from the wells, and blot dry. Wash 3 times.

[0116] ④ Add enzyme-labeled secondary antibody: Dilute HRP-labeled goat anti-mouse IgG1 at a ratio of 1:10000 with antibody dilution buffer, 100 μL / well. Incubate at 37℃ for 1 h, pour out the liquid from the wells, and pat dry. Wash 3 times.

[0117] ⑤ Color development: Add 100 μL of freshly prepared substrate color development solution to each well and react at room temperature in the dark for 15 min.

[0118] ⑥ Termination: Add 50 μL of termination solution to each well.

[0119] ⑦ Result determination: The absorbance at 492 nm was measured using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) reader.

[0120] The titer of the antiserum is calculated using the midpoint titer, which is the serum dilution at which the absorbance value is closest to 1.0. This dilution is then used as the working concentration of the antibody to determine its sensitivity.

[0121] The specific steps for determining the sensitivity of antiserum are as follows (icELISA):

[0122] ① Wrapped: Same as above.

[0123] ② Closed: Same as above.

[0124] ③ Competition: Various antibiotic standard solutions were serially diluted 2-fold from 4000 μg / L to 7.812 μg / L using antibody dilution buffer. The solutions were added to 96-well plates at 50 μL / well. Then, 50 μL of antiserum at twice the working concentration was added to each well, and the mixture was thoroughly mixed. A positive control well was included (50 μL of pure water + 50 μL of antiserum at twice the working concentration). The plates were incubated at 37°C for 1 hour. The liquid in the wells was poured out and patted dry. The plates were washed 3 times.

[0125] ④ The subsequent steps of adding enzyme-labeled secondary antibody, color development, termination, and result determination are the same as above.

[0126] A regression analysis was performed with the inhibition rate on the ordinate and the natural logarithm of the antibiotic concentration on the x-axis to calculate the IC50 concentration of the antibiotic that produces 50% inhibition. 50 IC 50 The lower the value, the higher the sensitivity.

[0127] The titer and sensitivity of mouse antiserum are shown in Table 2.

[0128] Table 2. Titer and Sensitivity of Mouse Antiserum

[0129]

[0130] As shown in Table 2, when SA-BSA-TC is used as the immunogen and SA-OVA-TC is used as the coating antigen, the resulting broad-spectrum detection antibody has good specificity and high sensitivity.

[0131] Example 3: Establishment and Specificity Detection of ELISA Detection Method

[0132] (1) Determination of coating agent concentration and antibody dilution ratio

[0133] Dilute the coating stock (SA-OVA-TC) to concentrations of 2, 1, 0.5, 0.25, and 0.125 μg / mL, and coat the ELISA plates overnight at 4°C.

Take the OD... 450 Combinations with IC50 values ​​around 1 were used for icELISA assays. The optimal combination was the one with the highest IC50 values ​​among all combinations. 50 The combination with the smallest value.

[0134] The specific steps of square titration are as follows:

[0135] The hapten was coated at concentrations of 2, 1, 0.5, 0.25, and 0.125 μg / mL and incubated overnight at 4°C. The broad-spectrum antibody was diluted at 1:16000, 1:32000, 1:64000, 1:128000, 1:256000, and 1:512000 and then subjected to checkerboard titration.

[0145]

[0146] Table 4 shows that when the original coating concentration is 0.5 μg / mL and the antibody dilution ratio is 128000, the IC50 against most SA and TC antibiotics is [data missing]. 50 The optimal combination is chosen to have the lowest possible concentration and highest sensitivity, with an original coating concentration of 0.5 μg / mL and an antibody dilution ratio of 128,000.

Then, 50 μL of a 1:64000 diluted composite antibody was added to each well and mixed thoroughly, resulting in antibiotic standard solution concentrations of 1, 2.5, 5, 10, 25, 50, and 100 ng / mL, and a final composite antibody dilution ratio of 1:128000. A positive control well was also included (50 μL of pure water + 50 μL of a 1:64000 diluted composite antibody). The plates were incubated at 37°C for 1 hour. The liquid in the wells was poured out and patted dry. The plates were washed three times.
