Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of detection technology, specifically relating to a safrole hapten and its preparation method, artificial antigen, antibody and application. Background Technology
[0002] Safrole (4-allyl-1,2-methylenedioxybenzene, C 10 H 10 Safrole (O2) is a naturally occurring organic compound belonging to the phenylpropene class of compounds. It is widely distributed in plants of the Lauraceae family (such as sassafras and camphor trees) and the Piperaceae family. In rotten and deteriorated spice plants, the content of safrole increases dramatically.
[0003] Safrole is toxic, can damage the liver, and may be carcinogenic. Currently, common methods for safrole detection include liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). These methods suffer from complex and cumbersome sample preparation, expensive equipment, and high costs, and cannot achieve efficient and rapid detection and monitoring of safrole. Furthermore, the detection limit of the currently reported safrole immunoassay method is only 200 ng / mL, indicating low sensitivity. Therefore, to strengthen the regulation of safrole, there is an urgent need to establish a rapid detection method for safrole that is simple to operate, highly sensitive, and accurate. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To solve all or part of the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0006] .
[0007] The two safrole haptens provided by this invention have spacer arms of suitable length. After coupling with carrier proteins, both allow the haptens to be fully exposed while minimizing recognition of the spacer arm, thus generating superior antibody recognition of safrole. If the spacer arm of the hapten is too short, the carrier protein may mask the characteristic structure of the analyte, resulting in a poor antibody response. If the spacer arm is too long, the hapten molecule may fold conformationally, becoming masked by the carrier protein, and thus more readily generating antibodies targeting the spacer arm.

[0068] This embodiment provides a safrole hapten and its synthesis method, and identifies the synthesized safrole hapten.
[0069] 1. Synthesis of safrole hapten SF-1
[0070] The synthetic route for the safrole hapten SF-1 is shown below:
[0071]
[0072] Specifically, the steps include the following:
[0073] (1) Dissolve 1 eq sesamol, 1.2 eq bromopropene and 1.2 eq potassium carbonate in acetonitrile and reflux overnight; after the reaction, extract with ethyl acetate and water and retain the organic phase; add 15 g silica gel powder to the organic phase and evaporate to dryness using a rotary evaporator. Purify by column chromatography using the developing solvent (volume ratio, petroleum ether: ethyl acetate: formic acid: 80:20:1) to obtain 5-(allyloxy)benzo[D][1,3]dioxolane.
[0074] (2) 5-(allyloxy)benzo[D][1,3]dioxolane was heated to 180 °C and reacted overnight. After the reaction was completed, it was dissolved in ethyl acetate. 15 g of silica gel powder was added to the organic phase and the mixture was evaporated to dryness using a rotary evaporator. The mixture was purified by column chromatography using the developing solvent (volume ratio: petroleum ether: ethyl acetate: formic acid: 79:30:1) to obtain 6-allylbenzo[d][1,3]dioxolane-5-ol.
[0075] (3) 1 eq of 6-allylbenzo[d][1,3]dioxolane-5-ol, 1.2 eq of potassium carbonate, and 1.2 eq of tert-butyl 4-bromobutyrate were added to acetonitrile and refluxed overnight.

[0076] (4) 1 eq of tert-butyl 6-(6-allylbenzo[D][1,3]dioxolane-5-oxy)butyrate and 3 eq of hydrochloric acid were added to 1,4-dioxane and reacted for 3 h. After the reaction was completed, the mixture was dried by rotary evaporator to obtain 4-(4-allylbenzo[D][1,3]dioxolane-5-oxy)butyrate, which is the safrole hapten SF-1.
[0077] 2. Identification of safrole hapten SF-1
[0078] The 1H NMR spectrum of the safrole hapten SF-1 is as follows: 1 H NMR (600 MHz, DMSO- d 6) δ 11.83(s, 1H), 6.98 – 6.38 (m, 2H), 6.08 – 5.73 (m, 3H), 5.27 – 4.71 (m, 2H), 4.06(t, J = 6.2 Hz, 2H), 3.49 – 3.03 (m, 2H), 2.51 (t, J = 9.3 Hz, 2H), 2.08 (tt, J = 9.0, 6.2 Hz, 2H).
[0079] The mass spectrometry results for the safrole hapten were: MS: 264.1, ESI-[MH] + :263.1.
[0080] The mass spectrometry and NMR results show that the mass spectrometry results correspond to the molecular weight of the safrole hapten, and the number of protons in the NMR spectrum corresponds to the number of protons in the safrole hapten skeleton structure. This indicates that the safrole hapten, denoted as SF-1, was successfully prepared, and its structural formula is shown in formula (I).
[0081] .
[0082] 3. Synthesis of safrole hapten SF-2
[0083] The synthetic route for the safrole hapten SF-2 is shown below:
[0084]
[0085] The preparation method of safrole hapten SF-2 is basically the same as that of SF-1, except that tert-butyl 4-bromobutyrate is replaced with tert-butyl 2-bromoacetate. The rest is the same as the preparation method of SF-1, and will not be described in detail here.
[0086] 4. Identification of safrole hapten SF-2
[0087] The 1H NMR spectrum of the safrole hapten SF-2 is as follows: 1 H NMR (600 MHz, DMSO- d 6) δ 12.90 (s, 1H), 6.66 (d, J = 3.8 Hz, 2H), 6.11 – 5.78 (m, 3H), 5.24 – 4.92 (m, 2H), 4.69 (s, 2H), 3.55 – 3.12 (m, 2H).
[0088] The mass spectrometry results for the safrole hapten were: MS: 236.07, ESI-[MH] + : 235.07.
[0089] The mass spectrometry and NMR results show that the mass spectrometry results correspond to the molecular weight of the safrole hapten, and the number of protons in the NMR spectrum corresponds to the number of protons in the safrole hapten skeleton structure. This indicates that the safrole hapten, denoted as SF-2, was successfully prepared, and its structural formula is shown in formula (II).
[0090] .
[0091] Example 2
[0092] This embodiment provides a safrole artificial antigen and its synthesis method, and identifies the synthesized safrole artificial antigen.
[0093] 1. Synthesis of safrole artificial antigen
[0094] (1) The safrole hapten SF-1 (3.156 mg, 0.012 mol) prepared in Example 1 was added to a brown reaction vial, EDC (3.5 mg, 0.018 mol) and NHS (2.1 mg, 0.018 mmol) were added, dissolved in 100 μL DMF, and stirred at room temperature for 3 h to obtain the hapten activation solution;
[0095] (2) Dissolve BSA (bovine serum albumin, 10 mg, 0.00015 mol) in 1 mL PBS buffer (0.01 mol / L, pH=7.4) to obtain BSA solution. Stir the BSA solution and hapten activation solution at 4 °C overnight.
[0096] (3) Collect the reaction solution, transfer it to the prepared dialysis bag, and then put it into 5 L of 0.01 M PBS buffer; dialyze at 4 ℃ for 3 days, and change the solution with pre-cooled 0.01 M PBS buffer every 8 hours;
[0097] (4) After dialysis purification, safrole artificial antigen, denoted as SF-1-BSA, was obtained. After concentration determination and ultraviolet spectroscopy identification, it was stored in a -20 ℃ refrigerator.
[0098] The artificial antigen SF-2-OVA prepared according to the above method is different from the preparation of SF-1-BSA only in that OVA (chicken egg albumin) is used instead of BSA, and SF-2 prepared in Example 1 is used instead of SF-1. The rest is the same as the preparation method of SF-1-BSA, and will not be repeated here.
[0099] 2. Identification of safrole artificial antigen
[0100] BSA, OVA, SF-1, SF-2, SF-1-BSA, and SF-2-OVA were identified by scanning using the ultraviolet full-wavelength method (200-350 nm).
[0101] Figure 1 These are ultraviolet full-wavelength scan images of safrole hapten SF-1, safrole artificial antigen SF-1-BSA, and BSA, as shown. Figure 1 As shown, by comparing the highest absorbance values of each substance before and after conjugation, it was found that the absorption curve of SF-1-BSA is significantly different from that of the carrier protein BSA. SF-1 has a strong absorption peak above 343 nm, while after conjugation with BSA, the absorption peak of SF-1-BSA is similar to that of BSA at 230 nm but significantly higher than that of BSA at 280 nm, and the curve relative to the hapten SF-1 shows a significant shift. Since all unreacted components were removed by dialysis during the post-conjugation dialysis process, the characteristic peaks of the conjugation product are contributed by the protein-bound drug molecules, indicating that the reaction product is a complex of the carrier protein BSA and SF-1.
[0102] Figure 2 These are ultraviolet full-wavelength scan images for the identification of safrole hapten SF-2, safrole artificial antigen SF-2-OVA, and OVA, as shown below. Figure 2As shown, similarly, the absorption curve of SF-2-OVA showed characteristic peaks that were different from those of OVA and SF-2, indicating that the reaction product was a complex of the carrier protein OVA and SF-2.
[0103] The above results demonstrate that the artificial antigens SF-1-BSA and SF-2-OVA of safrole were successfully prepared in this invention, and their structural formulas are shown in formulas (III) and (IV), respectively:
[0104] ;
[0105] In formula (III), the carrier protein is BSA, and in formula (IV), the carrier protein is OVA.
[0106] Example 3
[0107] This embodiment provides a safrole monoclonal antibody and its preparation method, specifically including the following steps:
[0108] 1. Animal immunization
[0109] Using the safrole artificial antigen SF-1-BSA prepared in Example 2 as the immunogen, SF-1-BSA was diluted to 5 mg / mL with 0.01 mol / L PBS, then mixed with an equal volume of Freund's complete adjuvant and thoroughly emulsified. This mixture was then used to immunize 8-week-old female BALB / c mice. For the first immunization, three female BALB / c mice were subcutaneously inoculated at multiple sites in the abdomen, with an antigen dose of 100 μg / mouse, administered in 0.1 ml per mouse. A second immunization was performed 14 days later, using an equal volume of Freund's incomplete adjuvant emulsified with the immunogen, at the same dose as the first immunization. Three booster immunizations were administered. After immunization, tail serum was collected. Its titer and inhibition rate were determined. Mice with the best results were selected for a pulse immunization, with an antigen dose of 100 μg / mouse.
[0110] 2. Cell fusion
[0111] Three days after the sprint immunization, cell fusion was performed using the standard PEG (polyethylene glycol, molecular weight 1450) method, with the following specific steps:
[0112] a. After euthanizing mice by blood collection from the eyeballs, immediately disinfect them in 75% alcohol for about 5 minutes. Aseptically remove the spleen of the mice, grind it moderately with the rubber tip of a syringe and pass it through a 200-mesh cell sieve to obtain a spleen cell suspension. Collect the suspension, centrifuge (1000 rpm, 7 min), wash the spleen cells three times with RPMI-1640 medium, and after the last centrifugation, dilute the spleen cells to a certain volume, count them, and set them aside for later use.
[0113] b. Collection of SP2 / 0 cells: 7-10 days before fusion, SP2 / 0 tumor cells were cultured in RPMI 1640 medium containing 10% FBS (fetal bovine serum) in a 5% CO2 incubator. The number of SP2 / 0 tumor cells should reach (1-4) × 10⁻⁶ cells before fusion. 7 To ensure that SP2 / 0 tumor cells are in the logarithmic growth phase before fusion, tumor cells are collected and suspended in RPMI-1640 basal culture medium for cell counting during fusion.
[0114] c. Mix the two cell lines, bring the volume to 15 mL, centrifuge (1000 rpm / min, 7 min), and discard the supernatant. Remove the centrifuge tube, gently shake at 60°C in a circular motion, and then begin preparation for fusion. The fusion time should be controlled as follows:
[0115] First minute: Slowly add PEG dropwise;
[0116] Second minute: Continue rotating (1 minute);
[0117] Third minute: Add 1 mL of basal culture medium;
[0118] Fourth minute: Add 3 mL of basal culture medium;
[0119] Fifth minute: Add 8 mL of basal culture medium;
[0120] Sixth minute: Add 8 mL of basal culture medium;
[0121] After fusion, the cell culture was centrifuged (1000 rpm / min, 7 min), and the 200 mL HAT culture medium was removed and placed in a clean bench for later use.
[0122] d. After centrifuging the hybridoma cells, discard the supernatant, aspirate 2 mL of HAT medium into a centrifuge tube, gently and slowly pipette to mix evenly, then transfer the cell solution in the centrifuge tube to 200 mL of HAT medium, gently shake the medium to disperse the cells evenly, and then plate them.
[0123] 3. Cell selection and cell line establishment
[0124] On day 3 of cell fusion, the fused cells were screened with RPMI-1640 medium with a half-replacement. On day 5, the medium was completely replaced with RPMI-1640 transition medium containing 20% fetal bovine serum and 2% 50×HT. On day 7, the cell supernatant was collected for screening.
[0125] The screening process consisted of two steps: First, positive cell wells were selected using ic-ELISA. Second, safrole was used as a standard, and its inhibitory effect on positive cells was determined using ic-ELISA. Cell wells that showed good inhibition of the safrole standard were selected, and subcloning was performed using the limiting dilution method. The cells were then tested using the same method after seven days. Subcloning was performed three times using the above method to finally obtain the safrole monoclonal antibody cell line AP-H6C.
[0126] 4. Preparation and identification of safrole monoclonal antibodies
[0127] BALB / c mice aged 8-10 weeks were injected intraperitoneally with 1 mL of sterile paraffin oil; 7 days later, each mouse was injected intraperitoneally with 1×10 6 Ascites fluid was collected from safrole hybridoma cells starting on day 7. The ascites fluid was then purified for antibody treatment using immunoaffinity chromatography. Under neutral conditions, Protein G bound to IgG immunoglobulins in the ascites fluid, causing other impurities to flow out and be discarded. Then, IgG was desorbed from Protein G under acidic conditions using 0.01 M glycine buffer to obtain high-purity IgG immunoglobulins. The pH of the IgG immunoglobulin solution was adjusted to neutral using 0.01 M Tris-HCl buffer, followed by dialysis to desalt, ultimately yielding high-purity safrole monoclonal antibodies. The purified monoclonal antibodies were stored at -20 °C.
[0128] 5. Sensitivity evaluation of safrole monoclonal antibody (indirect competitive ELISA method)
[0129] Using the safrole artificial antigen SF-2-OVA prepared in Example 2 as the coating agent, it was diluted with coating buffer (0.05 M carbonate buffer, pH 9.6) to a concentration of 500 ng / mL, and 100 μL / well was used to coat a 96-well microplate. The plate was incubated overnight (12 h) at 4 °C.
[0130] Discard the coating solution, wash twice with PBST (0.01 M PBS, 0.06 % v / v Tween-20), and pat dry;
[0131] Add 120 μL of blocking buffer (PBST containing 7% skim milk powder) to each well and block at 37 °C for 1 h;
[0132] Discard the sealing liquid, tap the plate, dry at 37°C, and then pack it in a self-sealing bag for later use.
[0133] The safrole monoclonal antibody prepared using SF-1-BSA as an immunogen was diluted with PBST at a volume ratio of 1:128000. The safrole standard was diluted with PBST to different concentrations to obtain safrole standard dilutions with concentrations of 10000 ng / mL, 1000 ng / mL, 125 ng / mL, 70 ng / mL, 50 ng / mL, 20 ng / mL, 10 ng / mL, 5 ng / mL, 1 ng / mL, 0.1 ng / mL, 0.01 ng / mL and 0.001 ng / mL.
[0134] Add 50 μL / well of safrole standard dilution buffer at different concentrations (three parallel groups), then add 50 μL / well of diluted safrole monoclonal antibody, incubate at 37 ℃ for 40 min, wash five times, and pat dry;
[0135] Add 100 μL / well of goat anti-mouse secondary antibody-HRP (diluted 5000 times with PBST), incubate at 37 ℃ for 30 min, wash five times, and pat dry;
[0136] Add 100 μL / well of colorimetric reagent and develop for 10 min;
[0137] The reaction was terminated by adding 50 μL of 10% H2SO4 solution, and the OD value was read at 450 nm.
[0138] ELISA standard curve plotting: Plot B / B0 as the ordinate (B represents the absorbance OD of standards with different concentrations of safrole). 450 B0 is the absorbance value (OD) of the blank control well. 450 The standard curve was obtained by fitting the logarithm of the concentration of safrole standard to the x-axis using the Logistic function, and the formula for the standard curve was derived.
[0139] Figure 3 The standard curve of the indirect competitive ELISA method, constructed using SF-2-OVA as the coating antigen and the safrole monoclonal antibody prepared in this example, is shown below. Figure 3 As shown, the limit of detection (LOD) was 2.50 ng / mL, and the half-maximum inhibitory concentration (IC50) was [missing value]. 50 The concentration was 20.04 ng / mL, and the quantitative detection range was 5.39~74.60 ng / mL.
[0140] 6. Specificity evaluation of safrole monoclonal antibodies
[0141] Dihydrosafrole, piperine ring, and sesamol are safrole analogs. The specificity of the safrole monoclonal antibody prepared in this example was evaluated by cross-reactivity experiments.
[0142] The method for sensitivity evaluation described above differs only in that the safrole standard is replaced with standards for dihydrosafrole, piperine, and sesamol, and the IC50 values of each structural analog are obtained by performing the tests at the same dilution factor.
[0143] The cross-reactivity rate (CR) of safrole is calculated using the following formula: CR (%) = IC50 (safrole) / IC50 (structural analog) × 100%. The lower the cross-reactivity rate, the stronger the specificity.
[0144] Table 1. Cross-reactivity results of safrole monoclonal antibodies with safrole and its analogues
[0145] ;
[0146] Note: NR indicates no reaction, meaning that the safrole monoclonal antibody of the present invention does not recognize this analogue.
[0147] As shown in Table 1, the cross-reactivity of the safrole monoclonal antibody to safrole was 100%, and the IC50 was [missing value]. 50 The concentration was 20.44 ng / mL, with no cross-contamination against dihydrosafrole, piperine, and sesamol. This indicates that the antibody used for detecting safrole has high recognition ability and specificity for safrole, and can effectively eliminate interference from methylenedioxybenzene analogs (such as dihydrosafrole, piperine, and sesamol), making it specifically suitable for the detection of safrole.
[0148] The above results indicate that the safrole monoclonal antibody prepared in this invention exhibits excellent detection performance, high sensitivity, and strong specificity for safrole.
[0149] Example 4
[0150] This embodiment provides a combination of safrole immunogen and coating antigen.
[0151] Using the safrole artificial antigen SF-2-OVA prepared in Example 2 as the coating antigen, and the safrole monoclonal antibody prepared in Example 3 using SF-1-BSA as the immunogen, the combined effect of the immunogen and coating antigen was evaluated by serum titers and inhibition rates obtained through an indirect competitive ELISA method. The specific operating steps are as follows:
[0152] 1. Dilute the coating agent to a concentration of 1000 ng / mL with coating buffer (0.05 M carbonate buffer, pH 9.6), add 100 μL / well to coat a 96-well microplate, incubate overnight at 4 ℃, discard the coating buffer, and wash twice with PBST (0.01 M PBS, 0.06% Tween-20 (v / v));
[0153] 2. Add 120 μL of blocking solution (PBST containing 7% skim milk powder) to each well, block at 37 ℃ for 1 h, discard the blocking solution, plate, and dry in a drying oven at 37 ℃ for later use;
[0154] 3. Dilute the safrole monoclonal antibody with PBST at volume ratios of 1:4000, 1:8000, 1:16000, 1:32000, 1:64000, 1:128000, and 1:256000, and set up blank control wells (using PBST instead); dilute 1 mg / mL safrole standard 1000 times with PBST to obtain a safrole standard dilution solution with a concentration of 1 μg / mL;
[0155] 4. Potency column setup: First, add 50 μL of PBST to each well, then add 50 μL of safrole monoclonal antibody at different dilution ratios to each well, and finally add 50 μL of PBST to the last well instead of the antibody.
[0156] 5. Inhibition column setup: First, add 50 μL of safrole standard dilution buffer to each well, then add 50 μL of safrole monoclonal antibody at different dilution ratios to each well, and finally add 50 μL of PBST to the last well instead of antibody.
[0157] 6. Incubate at 37℃ for 40 minutes, wash 5 times, and then plate.
[0158] 7. Add goat anti-mouse secondary antibody-HRP (diluted 5000 times with PBST), incubate at 37 ℃ for 30 min, wash 5 times, and plate.
[0159] 8. Add the color developing solution and incubate at 37 ℃ for 10 min;
[0160] 9. Terminate the reaction by adding 10% v / v H2SO4 and read the OD value at 450 nm; calculate the titer and inhibition rate. The titer is the OD value. 450 The antibody dilution factor corresponding to approximately 1.0 is: inhibition rate = (OD value of titer - OD value of inhibition) / OD value of inhibition × 100%.
[0161] This invention also employs the same methods described above to conjugate SF-1 with lactoferrin (LF), SF-1 with chicken ovalbumin, and SF-2 with lactoferrin to prepare artificial antigens SF-2-LF, SF-1-OVA, and SF-1-LF. Different combinations of immunogens and coating antigens were then constructed using these combinations, and the combined effects of the immunogens and coating antigens were evaluated using the same methods described above. The results are shown in Table 2.
[0162] Table 2. ELISA detection results for different immunogens and coating antigens.
[0163] ;
[0164] As shown in Table 2, the monoclonal antibody prepared using the artificial antigen SF-1-BSA of safrole as an immunogen and SF-2-OVA is the optimal combination of immunogen and coating agent. Under this combination, the monoclonal antibody can not only specifically recognize the target analyte safrole, but also has good antibody sensitivity and can be used to specifically recognize the target analyte safrole.

[0166] This embodiment provides an ELISA kit for detecting safrole, specifically including:
[0167] 1. Composition
[0168] (1) The enzyme-labeled plate coated with the coating agent is prepared by the following method:
[0169] The SF-2-OVA prepared in Example 2 was used as the coating agent. It was diluted to 500 ng / mL with the coating stock solution (0.05 M carbonate buffer, pH 9.6). 100 μL of the solution was added to coat 96-well microplates and incubated overnight at 4°C in the dark. The liquid in the wells was discarded, and the plates were washed twice with the washing solution in this kit for 30 s each time. The plates were then patted dry. Then, the blocking solution in this kit was added at 120 μL / well and incubated at 37°C in the dark for 1 h. The liquid in the wells was discarded, and the plates were patted dry. After drying, the plates were vacuum sealed with aluminum foil for storage.

[0176] (8) Diluent: 0.2 mol / L phosphate buffer; dilute the diluent 20 times with water before use (i.e., add 1 part of diluent to 19 parts of water, prepare fresh before use) to obtain the working solution of the diluent;
[0177] (9) Blocking solution: pH 7.3, 0.2 mol / L phosphate buffer containing 2% casein.
[0178] 2. Instructions for use
[0179] (1) Sample testing
[0180] Number the wells corresponding to the samples and standards in this kit sequentially. Perform two parallel wells for each sample and standard, and record the positions of the standard and sample wells. Dilute the antibody with the required amount of diluent at a 1:40 volume ratio (i.e., add 1 part antibody to 40 parts diluent; prepare fresh before use) to obtain the antibody working solution. Dilute the enzyme-labeled secondary antibody with the required amount of diluent at a 1:10 volume ratio (i.e., add 1 part enzyme-labeled secondary antibody to 10 parts diluent; prepare fresh before use) to obtain the enzyme-labeled secondary antibody working solution.
[0181] Add 50 μL of standard or sample to the corresponding well, then add 50 μL of antibody working solution to the corresponding well, gently shake to mix, cover with a cover plate and incubate at 25 ℃ in the dark for 40 min.
[0182] Shake off the liquid in the well and add 250 μL of washing working solution per well. Wash thoroughly 4-5 times, with 10 s intervals between each wash. Discard the washing working solution in the well and pat dry with absorbent paper (any air bubbles not removed after patting can be punctured with an unused pipette tip).
[0183] Add 100 μL / well of enzyme-labeled secondary antibody working solution to the corresponding microwell, gently shake to mix, cover with a cover plate membrane, and incubate at 25 ℃ in the dark for 30 min.
[0184] Shake off the liquid in the well and add 250 μL of washing working solution per well. Wash thoroughly 4-5 times, with 10 s intervals between each wash. Discard the washing working solution in the well and pat dry with absorbent paper (any air bubbles not removed after patting can be punctured with an unused pipette tip).
[0185] Add 50 μL of substrate chromogenic solution A per well, then add 50 μL of substrate chromogenic solution B per well, gently shake to mix, cover with a cover plate and incubate at 25 °C in the dark for 10 min.
[0186] Add 50 μL of stop solution per well, gently shake to mix, set the microplate reader to 450 nm, and measure the OD value of each well.
[0187] (2) Drawing the standard curve
[0188] Plot B / B0 as the ordinate (B represents the absorbance OD of standards at different concentrations). 450 B0 is the absorbance value (OD) of the blank control well. 450 The standard curve was obtained by using the logarithm of the concentration of the standard as the abscissa and performing curve fitting with the Logistic function.
[0189] (3) Calculation of sample concentration
[0190] OD of the sample 450 Substituting the average value into the formula of the standard curve above, we obtain the concentration of the sample. Multiplying this by the corresponding dilution factor gives the actual concentration of safrole in the sample.
[0191] In summary, the artificial antigens prepared using the two safrole haptens provided in this invention, due to the appropriately long spacer arms connecting the target epitope and the carrier protein, not only keep the characteristic structure of the target molecule away from the carrier protein but also maximize the exposure of the hapten to the immune system. Based on this, the resulting safrole monoclonal antibodies exhibit high titer, strong specificity, and high affinity. The ELISA detection method constructed based on the safrole artificial antigens and monoclonal antibodies provided in this invention demonstrates excellent specificity and high sensitivity, with a limit of detection (LOD) of 2.50 ng / mL and a half-inhibitory concentration (IC50). 50 The concentration is 20.04 ng / mL, and the quantitative detection range is 5.39~74.60 ng / mL. It has no cross-reactivity with safrole analogues and can perform rapid qualitative and quantitative detection of safrole in samples. The operation is simple and the detection results are accurate and reliable.
