Green Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay Based on the Single-Stranded Binding Protein-Assisted Aptamer for the Detection of Mycotoxin.

In this work, a green enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) based on the single-stranded binding protein (SSB)-assisted aptamer was designed for biosensing applications. Combined with the biotin-streptavidin (SA) system and the high catalytic activity of horseradish peroxidase (HRP), this SSB-assisted aptamer sensor was applied for the detection of aflatoxin B1, ochratoxin A, and zearalenone. In this novel ELISA, mycotoxin-protein conjugations were replaced by SSB to avoid the hazard of mycotoxin, whereas antibodies were replaced by aptamer to avoid the complex and tedious preparation of antibodies.

Lateral flow immunoassay integrated with competitive and sandwich models for the detection of aflatoxin M and Escherichia coli O157:H7 in milk.

Pathogens, mycotoxins, or antibiotics may exist in a food sample. Micro- and macromolecular substances must be detected quickly. A rapid and convenient lateral flow immunoassay (LFI) integrated with competitive and sandwich models was developed to detect micro- and macromolecular substances.

Specific colorimetric ELISA method based on DNA hybridization reaction and non-crosslinking gold nanoparticles aggregation for the detection of amantadine.

Amantadine (AMD), a banned antiviral veterinary drug, is still being abused. This study developed a novel enzyme linked immunosorbent assay for the colorimetric detection of AMD involving DNA hybridization reaction and non-crosslinking gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) aggregation. Accordingly, the Primer 1-AuNPs-anti-AMD monoclonal antibody (mAb) could be captured by AMD artificial antigen on ELISA wells.

Novel immunochromatographic assay based on Eu (III)-doped polystyrene nanoparticle-linker-monoclonal antibody for sensitive detection of Escherichia coli O157:H7.

Colloidal gold immunochromatographic assay (ICA) has poor sensitivity when used for Escherichia coli O157:H7 (E. coli O157:H7) detection. Eu (III)-doped polystyrene nanoparticle (EuNP) has a large range of stokes shift, long decay time, and wide excitation spectrum and narrow emission spectra.

Strategy for Accurate Detection of Escherichia Coli O157:H7 in Ground Pork Using a Lateral Flow Immunoassay.

O157:H7 is known to cause serious diseases including hemorrhagic colitis and hemolytic uremic syndrome. A gold nanoparticle lateral flow immunoassay (Au-LFIA) was used to detect O157:H7 in ground pork samples. False-positive results were detected using Au-LFIA; a strain was isolated from the ground pork samples and identified by using CHROmagar plates, API 20E, and 16S RNA sequencing.

Short communication: A novel method using immunomagnetic separation with a fluorescent nanobeads lateral flow assay for the rapid detection of low-concentration Escherichia coli O157:H7 in raw milk.

Escherichia coli O157:H7 is an important serotype of enterohemorrhagic E. coli that was first identified as a human pathogen in 1982. This pathogen causes several serious diseases.

DNA-based hybridization chain reaction and biotin-streptavidin signal amplification for sensitive detection of Escherichia coli O157:H7 through ELISA.

This study reported on a novel sandwich enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the sensitive determination of Escherichia coli O157:H7 (E. coli O157:H7) by using DNA-based hybridization chain reaction (HCR) and biotin-streptavidin signal amplification. The anti-E.

Rapid pretreatment and detection of trace aflatoxin B1 in traditional soybean sauce.

Soybean sauce, a traditional fermented food in China, has different levels of aflatoxin B1 pollution. Two kinds of direct and indirect immunomagnetic bead methods for the pretreatment of aflatoxin B1 were evaluated in this work. A method was established to detect aflatoxin B1 in soybean sauce using an immunomagnetic bead system for pretreatment and ELISA for quantification.
