[0037] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0038] It should be noted that the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Therefore, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. Furthermore, in the description of this invention, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.

[0039] According to one aspect of the present invention, a method for qualitative / quantitative detection of fluoroquinolone compounds is provided. The method for qualitative / quantitative detection of fluoroquinolone compounds according to embodiments of the present invention utilizes an immunoprobe for extraction. This immunoprobe has graphene oxide (GO) coated on the surface of a metal probe. GO has a large specific surface area and abundant oxygen-containing functional groups, such as carboxyl groups on its surface, which can provide abundant reaction sites for covalent coupling of biomolecules. A large amount of streptavidin can be coupled through graphene oxide, and then a broad-spectrum antibody is adsorbed onto the surface of the metal probe through streptavidin-biotin coupling. The antibody immobilization is large, resulting in high accuracy and precision of detection. Furthermore, this detection method can extract fluoroquinolone compounds without sample pretreatment, making the extraction method simple and efficient. The detection method of the embodiments of the present invention uses open-circuit mass spectrometry, which has sensitivity comparable to HPLC-MS / MS. For example, the detection limit is 0.08-0.16 ng / mL in phosphate buffered saline and 0.21-0.32 ng / mL in diluted milk. Compared with HPLC-MS / MS, this method is simple and rapid, with a sample enrichment time of only about 10 min, a detection time of <1 min, and a high recovery rate of 81.94% to 102.08%.

[0040] The detection method of this invention utilizes an immunoassay probe for extraction, significantly reducing sample preparation (dilution only) and enrichment time (only 10 minutes). Compared to existing non-mass spectrometry analysis techniques (such as enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, magnetic relaxation immunosensors, and fluorescence sensors), this mass spectrometry-based approach can rapidly and simultaneously determine multiple analytes without chemical or enzyme labeling, providing accurate molecular weight information and avoiding false positive results.

[0041] For ease of understanding, the method for qualitative / quantitative detection of fluoroquinolone compounds is explained herein. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the method includes:

[0042] S100 provides test solution

Thus, extraction is performed using an immunoprobe coated with graphene oxide (GO). GO has a large specific surface area and abundant oxygen-containing functional groups, such as carboxyl groups, which can provide abundant reaction sites for covalent coupling of biomolecules. A large amount of streptavidin can be coupled through graphene oxide, and then broad-spectrum antibodies are adsorbed onto the surface of the metal probe through streptavidin-biotin coupling. This results in a large amount of antibody immobilization and high detection accuracy and precision.

[0046] refer to Figure 1 According to an embodiment of the present invention, the fluoroquinolone immune probe comprises:

[0047] Metal Probe 100:

[0048] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the metal probe 100 is a tungsten needle (TN). Therefore, the tungsten needle tip spraying technique does not require complex sample pretreatment, has good conductivity and stable spraying, and offers advantages such as high sensitivity and high analysis speed when coupled with mass spectrometry. Furthermore, the tungsten needle has high chemical stability, can be cleaned with 5% nitric acid to remove adsorbed compounds, leaves no residue after cleaning, and can be reused. It features simplicity, real-time processing, speed, and low cost.

[0049] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the tungsten needle has a length of 2-10 cm and a tip length of 1-10 micrometers. Therefore, the tungsten needle with the above specifications exhibits stable electrical conductivity, high tip ionization efficiency under high voltage, low organic solvent elution, and high sensitivity for target compound detection.

[0050] Graphene oxide layer 200:

[0051] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the graphene oxide layer 200 covers at least a portion of the surface of the end of the metal probe 100, and the surface of the graphene oxide layer is modified with streptavidin. Thus, graphene oxide (GO) has a large specific surface area and abundant oxygen-containing functional groups, such as carboxyl groups on its surface, which can provide abundant reaction sites for the covalent coupling of biomolecules. A large amount of streptavidin can be coupled through graphene oxide, thereby facilitating subsequent antibody conjugation.

[0052] Antibody layer 300:

[0053] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the antibody layer is coated on at least a portion of the surface of the graphene oxide layer, and the antibody layer comprises a biotin-modified broad-spectrum antibody, wherein the broad-spectrum antibody specifically binds to fluoroquinolone compounds. Thus, through streptavidin and biotin conjugation, the broad-spectrum antibody is adsorbed onto the surface of the metal probe, resulting in a large amount of antibody immobilization and high detection accuracy and precision.

[0054] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the thickness of the graphene oxide layer is 1-3 micrometers.

[0055] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the amount of broad-spectrum antibody immobilized is approximately 10-25 micrograms per probe, that is, 10-25 μg of broad-spectrum antibody is immobilized on the surface of one fluoroquinolone compound immunoprobe. The large amount of immobilized broad-spectrum antibody is beneficial to the accuracy and sensitivity of extraction and detection.

[0056] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the broad-spectrum antibody comprises: a heavy chain variable region (VH) containing antigen-determining regions (CDRs) 1, 2, and 3; and a light chain variable region (VL) containing antigen VL CDRs 1, 2, and 3; wherein the amino acid sequences of the VH CDRs 1, 2, and 3 are as shown in SEQ ID NO: 3, 4, and 5, respectively, and the amino acid sequences of the VL CDRs 1, 2, and 3 are as shown in SEQ ID NO: 6, 7, and 8, respectively.

[0057] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the VH comprises the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 1, and the VL comprises the amino acid sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 2.

[0058] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the extraction time is 8-15 minutes, preferably 10 minutes. This allows for sufficient contact and enrichment of the antibody with the fluoroquinolone compounds in the sample, which is beneficial for improving the accuracy of detection. If the extraction time is too short, the antibody will not have sufficient contact with the fluoroquinolone compounds in the sample, resulting in incomplete enrichment and leading to a lower-than-expected result. If the extraction time is too long, the antibody enrichment will have reached a plateau, resulting in an excessively long reaction time.

[0059] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the extraction process is carried out under conditions of pH 5-8. This results in high antibody binding activity on the surface of the immunoprobe and a high proportion of adsorbed fluoroquinolone compounds.

[0060] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the concentration of the fluoroquinolone compound is not higher than 20 ng / mL. If the concentration of the fluoroquinolone compound is higher than 20 ng / mL, the antibody on the surface of the immune probe is saturated and the remaining fluoroquinolone compound cannot be enriched. To further understand the aforementioned fluoroquinolone-based immunoprobe, this invention provides a method for preparing the immunoprobe, characterized by comprising: coating the surface of a metal probe tip with an adhesive liquid and making a first contact with graphene oxide powder to obtain a graphene oxide-coated probe; activating the carboxyl groups of the graphene oxide coated on the probe to obtain an activated probe; making a second contact with streptavidin to allow streptavidin to react with the activated graphene oxide to obtain a streptavidin-modified probe; performing a protein blocking treatment on the streptavidin-modified probe to obtain a blocked probe; and making a third contact with a biotin-modified broad-spectrum antibody to obtain the fluoroquinolone-based immunoprobe, wherein the broad-spectrum antibody specifically binds to the fluoroquinolone compound.

[0061] According to the method for preparing the aforementioned fluoroquinolone compound immune probes according to embodiments of the present invention, graphene oxide is adhered to the surface of a metal probe using an adhesion liquid. Graphene oxide has a large specific surface area and abundant oxygen-containing functional groups, such as carboxyl groups on its surface, which can provide abundant reaction sites for covalent coupling of biomolecules. A large amount of streptavidin can be coupled through graphene oxide, and then a broad-spectrum antibody can be adsorbed onto the surface of the metal probe through the coupling of streptavidin and biotin. The prepared immune probe has a large amount of antibody immobilization, high detection accuracy and precision, and is simple to use.

[0062] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the graphene oxide powder has a thickness of 0.8-1.2 nanometers and a width of 1-15 micrometers.

[0063] According to embodiments of the present invention, the adhesive liquid can be used as long as it can adhere GO powder to the probe, and the type is not particularly limited. For example, it can be anti-mildew 580 glass glue.

[0064] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the activation treatment is carried out using 1-ethyl-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide (EDC). Therefore, the activation effect is good.

[0065] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the second contact time is 0.5-1.5 hours. This facilitates the full coupling of streptavidin to GO.

[0066] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the third contact time is 15-45 minutes, and the temperature is 30-45 degrees Celsius. Thus, broad-spectrum antibodies that are beneficial for biotin modification are coupled to the surface of the graphene oxide layer via the binding of biotin and streptavidin.

[0067] S300 Analysis and Testing

[0068] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the enriched immune probe is subjected to qualitative / quantitative analysis and detection.

[0069] According to embodiments of the present invention, the fluoroquinolone compound is at least one selected from norfloxacin (NOF), enoxacin (ENO), pefloxacin (PEF), ofloxacin (OFL), lomefloxacin (LOM), and sarafloxacin (SAR).

[0070] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the analytical detection is an open-type electrospray mass spectrometry detection. Using the immunoprobe of this embodiment as the sample introduction substrate, when a high voltage is applied, an electrospray is formed at the tip of the probe, which then enters the mass spectrometer for analysis.

[0071] The inventors discovered that when the spray voltage applied to the metal probe is fixed, the distance between the tip of the metal probe and the mass spectrometer inlet has a significant impact on the mass spectrometer response; both excessively large and small distances will reduce the mass spectrometer response signal. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the tip of the immunoassay probe is 2-10 mm from the open electrospray mass spectrometer inlet, preferably 5 mm.

[0072] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the spray ionization conditions for the electrospray mass spectrometry are: spray voltage: +2000-5000V. The inventors have found that when the high-voltage power supply voltage is +2000-3600V, the signal intensity of quinolone compounds increases with the increase of voltage. When the voltage is +3600-5000V, the signal intensity of six fluoroquinolone compounds decreases with the increase of voltage. Preferably, the high-voltage power supply voltage is selected as +3600V.

[0073] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the spray desorption solvent for open-cell electrospray mass spectrometry detection is a methanol solution containing 5% formic acid, and an internal standard of 30 ng / mL can be added. -1 NOFD5 and OFLD3.

[0074] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the detection conditions for the open-type electrospray mass spectrometry are: scanning mode: ESI. + Detection method: Multiple reaction monitoring (MRM); Air curtain pressure: 30 psi; Residence time: 100 ms; This makes the detection of the target object more stable, and the accuracy and sensitivity of the detection are high.

[0075] According to embodiments of the present invention, the multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) parameters of mass spectrometry for six fluoroquinolone compounds are shown in Table 1.

[0112] (3) A high voltage of +3.6kV was applied to the tip of the extraction probe to generate spray ionization at the tip. The analysis was performed in positive ion mode using a Qtrap 5500 mass spectrometer (AB SCIEX, Redwood, USA) and the drug was quantitatively determined in MRM mode.

[0113] (4) The ratio of the quantitative ion peak area generated by the analyte to the quantitative ion peak area of ​​the IS was used as the signal for analysis. The sum of the signals from the first three sprays was used to determine the amount of analyte. Data acquisition and analysis were performed using Analyst 1.5.1 software (AB SCIEX, Redwood, USA), and the results are as follows: Figure 2 As shown in the figure. The results indicate that the ratio gradually decreases with the increase of the number of sprays, and after the third spray, the ratio gradually approaches the measured value of 0 ng / mL. The target signal intensity is taken as the sum of the signals from the first three sprays (accounting for more than 80%).

[0114] 3. Investigate the selectivity of TN@GO-SA-biotin-Ab

[0115] Specifically, 50 ng / mL sulfadiazine (SDZ) and doxycycline (DXY) were added as system interferants to a 5 ng / mL FQs solution to investigate the selectivity of TN@GO-SA-biotin-Ab for FQs analytes. The results are as follows: Figure 3 a. Compared with TN@GO, TN@GO-SA, and TN@GO-SA-IgG, TN@GO-SA-biotin-Ab significantly increased the signal intensity of FQs. Furthermore, in the presence of high concentrations of interfering drugs, the TN@GO-SA-biotin-Ab system significantly enhanced the enrichment of FQs. The TN@GO, TN@GO-SA, and TN@GO-SA-IgG systems relied solely on non-specific adsorption of GO. QNs could be specifically recognized by TN@GO-SA-biotin-Ab. Similarly, using actual blank milk matrix samples as a control group, the addition of 5 ng / mL of FQs to the control group and milk matrix samples was compared with the results shown below. Figure 3 b indicates that TN@GO and TN@GO-SA showed no significant difference compared to the control group, while the signal of TN@GO-SA-biotin-Ab was significantly higher than that of the control group. The experimental results demonstrate that the immune probes of this invention exhibit good specificity for fluoroquinolone compounds.

[0116] 4. Optimization of TN@GO-SA-biotin-Ab conditions

[0117] Specifically, the key parameter affecting the enrichment effect was optimized: biotin-Ab concentration ( Figure 4 a) Reaction time ( Figure 4 b) pH Figure 4 c) FQs concentration ( Figure 4 d).

[0118] 5. Determination of Standard Curve

[0119] Specifically, under optimal system conditions, the linearity of fungicides (FQs) (spray solvent: methanol containing 30 ng / mL IS) was evaluated in a PBS matrix using the prepared TN@GO-SA-biotin-Ab combined with TNS-MS. The solvent standard curve obtained by plotting the logarithms of the six FQ concentrations on the x-axis is shown below. Figure 5 As shown in the results, the six FQs exhibited good exponential linearity at concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 10 ng / mL, with an LOD range of 0.08 to 0.16 ng / mL.

[0120] 6. Evaluate the analytical values ​​of TNS@GO-SA-biotin-Ab in actual samples.

[0121] Due to matrix interference in mass spectrometry detection, the MS / MS spectra of blank milk and undiluted milk supplemented with 50 ng / mL FQs were examined. Firstly, the presence of the six FQs was confirmed by peaks obtained from the adsorption and determination of the added milk using TNS@GO-SA-biotin-Ab. The verification results are as follows. Figure 6 As shown, this demonstrates that TNS@GO-SA-biotin-Ab exhibits excellent qualitative and quantitative performance in the matrix after employing this simple undiluted strategy.

[0122] 7. Methodological validation of mass spectrometry detection

[0123] This study investigated the detection of six different concentrations of fluoroquinolone antibiotics in a blank milk matrix using an open-air electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) method. Specifically, certain amounts of fluoroquinolone antibiotics (FQs) were added to the blank milk matrix to achieve final concentrations of 1, 5, and 10 ng / mL. 100 μL of the spiked milk was diluted 10-fold with PBS before analysis. TN@GO-SA-biotin-Ab was placed in the diluted sample and reacted at room temperature for 10 min to complete enrichment. Finally, the TN@GO-SA-biotin-Ab was removed, washed with deionized water, dried, and analyzed by TNS-MS.

[0124] Meanwhile, using HPLC-MS / MS analysis as a control, the above milk samples were analyzed. Specifically, the spiked milk was extracted with acetonitrile, vortexed for 10 min, and centrifuged at 10000 rpm / min for 10 min. The supernatant was collected, dried under nitrogen at 40℃, and then reconstituted with 5% acetonitrile aqueous solution before HPLC-MS / MS analysis. The HPLC-MS / MS detection conditions were as follows: Chromatographic system: Shimazu LC-30AD; Mass spectrometer: AB Sciex Qtrap 5500; Zorbaxeclipse+C18 column (2.1 mm × 150 mm, 3.5 μm) (Agilent Technologies Inc., Pala). FQs were separated by chromatography at Alto, CA, USA; flow rate: 0.40 mL / min; injection volume: 5 μL; mobile phase: acetonitrile (phase A) and 0.1% FA aqueous solution (phase B); gradient elution program was used, the elution program was: initial volume ratio of phase B was 95% at 0.1 min, decreased to 85% from 0.1 min to 3 min, decreased to 0% from 3 min to 7 min, increased to 95% within 0.1 min, and held at 95% for 2.9 min, with a total run time of 10 min; mass spectrometry was performed in MRM mode with positive ion source mode; mass spectrometry parameters of FQs (precursor ion, daughter ion, collision energy, declustering voltage) were optimized by peristaltic pump injection; the spray ionization voltage was +5500 V. Data acquisition and processing were performed using Analyst 1.5.1 software. Measurements were conducted using a matrix-matched standard curve. The RSDs ranged from 1.11% to 14.44% when the corresponding spiked concentrations were 5, 20, and 50 ng / mL, respectively. The results are shown in Table 2. Compared with traditional HPLC-MS / MS analysis, this technique exhibits better accuracy, indicating that TN@GO-SA-biotin-Ab can effectively enrich fibrillated quantifiers (FQs), and TNS-MS can effectively analyze FQs.

[0127] 9. Reproducibility test of immune probes

[0128] The reusability of TN@GO-SA-biotin-Ab was tested using 5 ng / mL FQs. Figure 7 After repeated use of TN@GO-SA-biotin-Ab three times, it was found that the proportion dropped sharply after only one use, and then tended to stabilize. This may be because antibody inactivation reduces enrichment capacity.
