Development of an immunoassay for clenbuterol (CLB) detection required an anti-CLB antibody as an important bioreceptor. In this study, we report our work on production and purification of a rabbit-derived polyclonal anti-CLB antibody. The antibody was then purified by nProtein A Sepharose affinity column and the antibody purity was confirmed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) analysis. The activities of purified antibody were evaluated based on high antibody titer determined from enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The sensitivity and selectivity of this antibody was evaluated and exhibits negligible cross-reactivity to antibiotics other than β-agonist families. Evaluation of the antibody as bioreceptor in immunoassay was performed using direct competitive ELISA and exhibited linear calibration plot (R² = 0.9484). The antibody was used to detect the content of CLB in spiked milk samples and the recovery of more than 92% indicating significant performance as bioreceptor for the development of a rapid and simple immunoassay.
为了开发用于检测克伦特罗(CLB)的免疫分析方法,需要将克伦特罗抗体作为重要的生物受体。在本研究中,我们报告了兔源多克隆抗 CLB 抗体的生产和纯化工作。然后,通过 nProtein A Sepharose 亲和柱对抗体进行纯化,并通过十二烷基硫酸钠-聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳(SDS-PAGE)分析确认抗体的纯度。根据酶联免疫吸附测定(ELISA)确定的高抗体效价评估纯化抗体的活性。评估了该抗体作为免疫分析中的生物受体的灵敏度和选择性,并且对除β-激动剂家族以外的抗生素表现出可忽略不计的交叉反应性。使用直接竞争 ELISA 评估抗体作为生物受体的性能,并显示出线性校准曲线(R²=0.9484)。该抗体用于检测添加到牛奶样品中的 CLB 含量,回收率超过 92%,表明其作为生物受体在开发快速简单的免疫分析方面具有重要性能。
