The invention discloses an indirect competitive
enzyme-linked immunosorbent
assay (ELISA) for measuring heavy
metal mercury, belonging to a method for measuring heavy
metal mercury in an
environment water sample. The method comprises the following steps: taking a
monoclonal antibody for specially identifying mercury-chelating agent EDTA compound Hg-EDTA as the base,
coating the coated
antigen mercury-chelating agent-albumen on a 96-hole ELISA plate; incubating at 4 DEG C over night and then sealing by
phosphate buffer solution PBS including 1% of
gelatin, after washing the ELISA plate, addinga mixing solution of the specificity mercury
monoclonal antibody and samples to be measured, incubating at 37 DEG C and then washing the plate, adding an ELISA secondary
antibody, incubating at 37 DEGC, adding an
enzyme reaction substrate after washing the plate, and adding a reaction stop solution for stopping the reaction after the incubation, and then measuring the
absorbance value of each hole by an ELISA reader; obtaining a standard competitive inhibit curve, then executing
Logit transition on the curve, and drawing the
standard curve of the mercury in the sample to carry out the quantitative analysis. The method is suitable for the measurement of trace mercury in an
environment water sample, simultaneously provides the
technical support for the fast scene measurement of heavy metalpollution emergency in order to remedy the
pollution accident and go back to work in time.
