A new spectrofluorimetric method was developed for the determination of trace amounts of heparin (Hep). Using tetracycline (TC)-europium ion (Eu3+) as a fluorescent probe, in the buffer solution at pH 8.8, Hep can remarkably enhance the fluorescence intensity of the TC-Eu3+ complex at lambda=612 nm and the enhanced fluorescence intensity of Eu3+ is in proportion to the concentration of Hep. Optimal conditions for the determination of Hep were also investigated. The linear range and detection limit for the determination of Hep were 0.02 to 1.6 microg/ml and 4.45 ng/ml, respectively. This method is simple, practical, and relatively free of interference from coexisting substances, and it can be applied successfully to assess Hep in biological samples. By the Rosenthal graphic method, the association constant and binding numbers of Hep with the probe were 4.46 x 10(4) L/mol and 16.2, respectively. Moreover, the enhancement mechanism of the fluorescence intensity in the TC-Eu3+ system, the TC-Eu(3+)-Hep system, and the TC-Eu(3+)-Hep-CTMAB system is also discussed.  相似文献

Two murine monoclonal antibodies to the macrocyclic trichothecene roridin A are described. Screening for antibody production was performed on absorbed anti-mouse immunoglobulin serum as double-antibody solid phase, and further characterization was done on affinity-purified anti-mouse IgG serum. The antibodies, designated 5G11 and 4H10, had affinity constants for roridin A of 9.25 X 10(7) and 1.7 X 10(7) liters/mol, respectively. In monoclonal antibody-based direct enzyme immunoassays, these IgG1 antibodies had detection limits for roridin A of 0.4 ng/ml (0.02 ng per assay) and 1.8 ng/ml (0.09 ng per assay), respectively. Both antibodies were most specific for the tested macrocyclic trichothecenes. The relative cross-reactivities of antibody 5G11 with roridin A, roridin J, verrucarin A, satratoxin G, and satratoxin H were 100.0, 43.8, 16.7, 3.7, and 18.9%, respectively; for antibody 4H10 they were 100.0, 6.3, 64.0, 4.4, and 4.9%, respectively.  相似文献

A heterologous, competitive, solid phase ELISA has been developed which can measure monoamine oxidase (MAO) B concentration (both inactive and active) in human platelets and other tissue extracts. The assay is based on competition between a soluble form of MAO and MAO bound to a solid phase for binding to a limiting amount of a MAO B-specific monoclonal antibody, 3F12/G10. It utilises a crude and easily prepared sample of human liver mitochondrial membranes as the source of solid phase MAO. Optimal assay conditions allow detection of MAO B down to at least 0.5 ng (4.18 fmol; 6.25 ng/ml) of protein. As the assay is sensitive and simple to operate, it will allow a systematic assessment of the role of platelet MAO concentrations in the aetiology of psychiatric and neurologic conditions.  相似文献

A method for the simultaneous determination of +S and -R arotinolol in serum by micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography is described. Stereoselective resolution of the arotinolol enantiomers was achieved using 5 mM sodium taurocholate in 10 mM sodium dihydrogen phosphate buffer of pH 2.5. A 72-cm uncoated fused-silica capillary at a constant voltage of 15 kV was used for the analysis. The analytes of interest were extracted from serum using solid phase extraction. An octadecyl cartridge gave good recoveries in excess of 87% for both +S and -R arotinolol without any interference. The calibration curves were linear over the range of 50-500 ng ml(-1) with +S propranolol as the internal standard and the coefficient of determination was greater than 0.999 (n = 3). The limit of quantitation was 50 ng ml(-1) for each enantiomer and the detection limit using 1 ml serum and a UV detection set et 220 nm was 25 ng ml(-1) (S/N = 2). Precision and accuracy of the method were in the range 0.8-2.7% and 1.2-6.4%, respectively, for +S arotinolol and 1.1-3.9% and 2.2-6.5%, respectively, for -R arotinolol.  相似文献

A solid phase micro-immunoradiometric assay (micro-SPIRA) for the detection of hepatitis e antigen (HBeAg) and antibody has been developed. Chimpanzee anti-HBe/2 was developed by repeated immunizations with purified antigen containing HBeAg/1 and HBeAg/2. An anti-HBe/2 titer of 1:4 was determined by immunodiffusion (ID) analysis. Anti-HBe/1 was not detected. The anti-HBe IgG used in the assay was purified from plasma by a combination of DEAE-cellulose and affinity chromatography. The sensitivity of the micro-SPIRA for antigen and antibody was 193 ng/ml and 65 ng/ml, respectively. By comparing relative endpoint titers obtained by ID to micro-SPIRA, it was determined that micro-SPIRA for antigen and antibody is 320 and greater than 1300 times more sensitive, respectively, than ID. The specificity of the assay was ascertained by the examination of various non-B specimens. The application of the assay to a panel of 50 hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg)-positive specimens resulted in an increase in positivity of 18% for antigen and 22% for antibody.  相似文献

Summary The detection of fibronectin (FN) in osmium-fixed and Araldite-embedded frog skin fragments was studied using a modification of Baskin's procedure (Baskin et al. 1979). Following the removal of Araldite from the semi-thin sections (0.5–1.0 m) with ethanol-NaOH solution, the sections were bleached with hydrogen peroxide. FN was detected by indirect immunoperoxidase method. For precise localization of FN, careful attention was paid to the temperature, antibody concentrations and the quality of the ethanol-NaOH solution. Our results were in agreement with those that we had obtained previously for polyethylene glycol (PEG) sections, suggesting that the present procedure is useful for the detection of FN in Araldite-embedded biological specimens.  相似文献

EDA-containing fibronectin (EDA + FN) is selectively produced under several physiological and pathological conditions requiring tissue remodeling, where cells actively proliferate and migrate. Only a few growth factors, such as transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta1, have been reported to regulate FN splicing at the EDA region. In the present study, we showed for the first time that hepatocyte growth factor/scatter factor (HGF/SF), which is mainly produced by mesenchymal cells and functions as a motogenic and mitogenic factor for epithelial cells, modulates FN splicing at the EDA region in MDCK epithelial cells. HGF/SF treatment increased the ratio of EDA + FN mRNA to mRNA of FN that lacks EDA (EDA - FN) (EDA+/EDA- ratio) more than TGF-beta1 treatment did: at a range from 0.02 to 20 ng/ml, HGF/SF increased the ratio in a dose-dependent manner by up to 2. 1-fold compared with nontreated control, while TGF-beta1 stimulated the EDA+/EDA- ratio by 1.5-fold at the optimum dose of 10 ng/ml. However, TGF-beta1 increased total FN mRNA levels by 3-fold at 10 ng/ml, but HGF/SF did not. We previously demonstrated that fibroblasts cultured at low cell density expressed more EDA + FN than those at high cell density. The same effect of cell density was also observed in MDCK cells. Furthermore, at low cell density, HGF/SF stimulated EDA inclusion into FN mRNA more effectively than did TGF-beta1, whereas at high cell density, TGF-beta1 was more potent than HGF/SF. Simultaneous treatment of cells with HGF/SF and TGF-beta1 synergistically stimulated EDA inclusion into FN mRNA. This stimulation of EDA inclusion into FN mRNA by HGF/SF led to increased EDA + FN protein production and secretion by cells, which was demonstrated by immunoblotting. Thus, our studies have shown that HGF/SF is an enhancer of EDA inclusion into FN mRNA as is TGF-beta1. However, these two factors were different in their effects at low and high cell densities and also in their effects on total FN mRNA levels.  相似文献

Fibronectin (FN) is a major component of the extracellular matrix which plays important roles in a variety of cellular processes including cell adhesion, and migration. The soluble cellular form of FN has a monomer molecular weight of approximately 250 kDa, and generally exists as a dimer of 500 kDa. We have isolated a different form of soluble FN from mouse breast cancer cell line SC115 conditioned medium (CM) and purified it to homogeneity as evidenced by both native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) and sodium dodecyl sulfate PAGE. It still exhibits a monomeric form of about 250 kDa while its form in the CM is stable and soluble with an apparent tetrameric molecular weight in the range of 800-1000 kDa. This form of FN is a potent cell adhesion factor (AF) that induces adhesion to polystyrene, elongation, spreading, alignment or “track” formation, and migration of mouse erythroleukemia cells. Column fractions homogeneous for AF protein were able to stimulate 10% cell adhesion at concentrations of 23 ng/ml and 1.9 ng/cm2. Purified AF induced 50% cell adhesion at 94 ng/ml and 7.5 ng/cm2. AF also increased the migration of human aortic smooth muscle and vascular endothelial cells. However, this form of FN differs from other forms as it does not bind tightly to either gelatin or heparin. Studies of this AF should shed light on adhesion of cells to extracellular matrix molecules and on cell migration, both of which are critical in several biological processes such as wound healing, metastasis, matrix formation and structure, and organ development.  相似文献

3-Nitrotyrosine (3NT) is used as a biomarker of nitrative pathology caused by peroxynitrite (PN), myeloperoxidase (MPO)-, and/or eosinophil peroxidase (EPO)-dependent nitrite oxidation. 3NT measurements in biological materials are usually based on either antibody staining, HPLC detection, or GC detection methodologies. In this report, a procedure is described for the measurement of 3NT and tyrosine (TYR) by LC-MS/MS that is simple, direct, and sensitive. Though highly specialized in its use as an assay, LC-MS/MS technology is available in many research centers in academia and industry. The critical assay for 3NT was linear below 100 ng/ml and the limit of detection was below 100 pg/ml. Regarding protein digested samples, we found that MRM was most selective with 133.1 m/z as the daughter ion. In comparison, LC-ECD was 100 times less sensitive. Basal levels of 3NT in extracted digests of rat brain homogenate were easily detected by LC-MS/MS, but were below detection by LC-ECD. The LC-MS/MS assay was used to detect 3NT in rat brain homogenate that was filtered through a 180 micron nylon mesh. Three fractions were collected and examined by phase contrast microscopy. The mass ratio (3NT/TYR) of 3NT in fractions of large vessel enrichment, microvessel enrichment, and vessel depletion was 0.6 ng/mg, 1.2 ng/mg, and 0.2 ng/mg, respectively. Ultimately, we found that the basal 3NT/TYR mass ratio as determined by LC-MS/MS was six times greater in microvessel-enriched brain tissue vs. tissue devoid of microvessels.  相似文献

A monoclonal antibody to the trichothecene mycotoxin diacetoxyscirpenol   总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0  
A monoclonal antibody to the trichothecene mycotoxin diacetoxyscirpenol (DAS) was produced by a hybridoma, designated 2E5. It secreted antibody of the IgGl subclass and had a detection limit for DAS of 16 ng/ml with a direct enzyme immunoassay on a double antibody solid phase. The relative cross-reactivities with 3α-acetyl-DAS, diacetylverrucarol, neosolaniol, T-2 tetraol tetraacetate, fusarenon X, T-2 toxin, and HT-2 were 2224·5, 53·7, 13·9, 9·2, 6·4, 1·7, 0·6, and 0·35%, respectively.  相似文献

An ion-sensitive field effect transistor (ISFET)-based immunosensor was developed to detect/quantitate beta-Bungarotoxin (beta-BuTx), a potent presynaptic neurotoxin from the venom of Bungarus multicinctus. A murine monoclonal antibody (mAb 15) specific to beta-BuTx was immobilized onto silicon nitride wafers after silanization and activation with glutaraldehyde. A chip based enzyme linked-immunosorbantassay (ELISA) was performed to ascertain antigen binding to the immobilized antibody. To develop an electrochemical immunosensing system for the detection/quantitation of beta-BuTx, an ISFET was used as a solid phase detector. MAb 15 was immobilized on the gate region of the ISFET. The antigen antibody reaction was monitored by the addition of urease conjugated rabbit anti-beta-BuTx antibodies. The sensor can detect toxin level as low as 15.6 ng/ml. The efficacy of the sensor for the determination of beta-BuTx from B. multicinctus venom was demonstrated in mouse model. Toxin concentration was highest at the site of injection (748.0+/-26 ng/ml) and moderate amount was found in the plasma (158.5+/-13 ng/ml).  相似文献

Bovine serum albumin (BSA) microspheres with an average diameter of 12.5 micron were prepared by crosslinking of BSA molecules with glutaraldehyde in the presence of polymethylmethacrylate dissolved in chloroform-toluene. Trypsin and anti-human IgG antibody were immobilized onto their surfaces by the glutaraldehyde-activation method. The catalytic activity and storage stability of the immobilized trypsin were satisfactorily high. The enzyme immunoassay (EIA) method using BSA-microspheres as a solid phase has a high sensitivity (the minimum concentration of detectable antigen in the sample: 0.2 ng/ml) and a wide concentration range (final concentration 0.027-3000 ng/ml) for the detection of human IgG.  相似文献

An enantioseparation of the antipsychotic drug butaclamol in human plasma by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with solid phase extraction is presented. The separation was achieved on the vancomycin macrocyclic antibiotic chiral stationary phase (CSP) Chirobiotic V with a polar ionic mobile phase (PIM) consisting of methanol : glacial acetic acid : triethylamine (100:0.2:0.05, v/v/v) at a flow rate of 0.5 ml/min. The detection wavelength was 262 nm. Bond Elut C18 solid phase extraction cartridges were used in the sample preparation of butaclamol samples from plasma. The method was validated over the range of 100-3,000 ng/ml for each enantiomer concentration (R(2) > 0.999). Recoveries for (+)- and (-)-butaclamol were in the range of 94-104% at the 300-2,500 ng/ml level. The method proved to be precise (within-run precision ranged from 1.1-2.6% and between-run precision ranged from 1.9-3.2%) and accurate (within-run accuracies ranged from 1.5-5.8% and between-run accuracies ranged from 2.7-7.7%). The limit of quantitation (LOQ) and limit of detection (LOD) for each enantiomer in human plasma were 100 ng/ml and 50 ng/ml, respectively.  相似文献

An amperometric biosensor for monitoring the level of protein amylase in human saliva is described. A novel design and the preparation of amylase antibodies and antigens, essential for the development of the biosensor, are reported. The biosensor sensing elements comprise a layer of salivary antibody (or antigen) self-assembled onto Au-electrode via covalent attachment. Molecular recognition between the immobilized antibody and the salivary amylase proteins was monitored via an electroactive indicator (e.g., K(3)Fe(CN)(6)) or a monodispersed silver layer present in solution or electrochemically deposited onto the solid electrode. This electroactive indicator was oxidized or reduced and the resulting current change provided the analytical information about the concentration of the salivary proteins. The limit of detection of 1.57 pg/ml was obtained, in comparison to detection limits of 4.95 pg/ml obtained using potassium ferrocyanide as the redox probe and 10 ng/ml obtained using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Cross-reactivity was tested against cystatin antibodies and was found to be less than 2.26%.  相似文献

An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) using microplates as solid phase, rabbit antiserum against human rotavirus Wa strain as catching antibody, and the same reagent labeled with beta-D-galactosidase as conjugate, has been developed for detection of human rotavirus antigen(s) in stool specimens from patients with acute gastroenteritis. The limit of detection of purified human rotavirus by ELISA was 15.6 ng/ml (1.56 ng/well) of viral protein. The sensitivities of ELISA, electron microscopy, and the reversed passive haemagglutination method (ROTA-CELL) were compared. ELISA was more sensitive than electron microscopy and the reversed passive haemagglutination method. The ELISA blocking assay was useful for detection of an antibody response to human rotavirus in paired sera from children in two institutions during outbreaks of rotavirus gastroenteritis.  相似文献

Astragaloside IV is a novel cardioprotective agent extracted from the Chinese medical herb Astragalus membranaceus (Fisch) Bge. This agent is being developed for treatment for cardiovascular disease. Further development of Astragaloside IV will require detailed pharmacokinetic studies in preclinical animal models. Therefore, we established a sensitive and accurate high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) quantitative detection method for measurement of Astragaloside IV levels in plasma, urine as well as other biological samples including bile fluid, feces and various tissues. Extraction of Astragaloside IV from plasma and other biological samples was performed by Waters OASIS(trade mark) solid phase extraction column by washing with water and eluting with methanol, respectively. An aliquot of extracted residues was injected into LC/MS/MS system with separation by a Cosmosil C18 5 microm, 150 mm x 2.0 mm) column. Acetonitrile:water containing 5 microM NaAc (40:60, v/v) was used as a mobile phase. The eluted compounds were detected by tandem mass spectrometry. The average extraction recoveries were greater than 89% for Astragaloside IV and digoxin from plasma, while extraction recovery of Astragaloside IV and digoxin from tissues, bile fluid, urine and fece ranged from 61 to 85%, respectively. Good linearity (R2>0.9999) was observed throughout the range of 10-5000 ng/ml in 0.5 ml rat plasma and 5-5000 ng/ml in 0.5 ml dog plasma. In addition, good linearity (R2>0.9999) was also observed in urine, bile fluid, feces samples and various tissue samples. The overall accuracy of this method was 93-110% for both rat plasma and dog plasma. Intra-assay and inter-assay variabilities were less than 15.03% in plasma. The lowest quantitation limit of Astragaloside IV was 10 ng/ml in 0.5 ml rat plasma and 5 ng/ml in 0.5 ml dog plasma, respectively. Practical utility of this new LC/MS/MS method was confirmed in pilot pharmacokinetic studies in both rats and dogs following intravenous administration.  相似文献

Radioimmunoassay of the A prostaglandins   总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6  
Antibodies to the (PGA) prostaglandin A were produced in rabbits immunized with a conjugate of PGE2 covalently linked to (BSA) bovine serum albumin by reaction with carbodiimide reagent. A radioimmunoassay was developed using dextran-coated charcoal to separate the free from antibody bound PGA1-3H. The sensitivity of the method was found to be 100 picograms/ml of plasma. Ethyl acetate was used for extraction of plasma and the various classes of PGs were separated by silicic acid column chromatography. Recovery of PGA1-3H throughout the entire procedure was 65-75%. The antibody showed progressively decreasing affinity to PGA2, PGA1, PGE2, PGE1, PGB2, and PGF2alpha, respectively. The mean plasma PGA level in adult males (N=13) was found to be 1.39 + or - 0.55 ng/ml, and 1.62 + or - 0.52 ng/ml in adult females (N=7). Corresponding plasma and serum samples were found to give essentially similar results. Plasma PGA levels in adult males treated with indomethacin for rheumatoid arthritis were 0.18 + or - 0.15 ng/ml (P 0.001 in comparison with the normal adult males). This method is sufficiently sensitive, precise, and rapid to allow the routine estimation of the PGAs in biological samples.  相似文献

Antibodies against aflatoxin Q1 (AFQ1) were obtained from rabbits after immunization of either AFQ1-hemisuccinate or AFQ2a conjugated to bovine serum albumin. Both radioimmunoassay and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assaY (ELISA) were used for the determination of antibody titers and specificities. Antibodies obtained from rabbits after immunization with AFQ1-hemisuccinate-bovine serum albumin had the highest affinity to aflatoxin B1, whereas antibodies obtained from rabbits after immunization with AFQ2a-bovine serum albumin bound most effectively with AFQ2a. AFQ2a antibody was selected for the subsequent direct and indirect ELISA for the detection of AFQ1 in biological fluids. When AFQ2a-peroxidase and AFQ2a antibody were used, direct ELISA was able to detect as low as 2 ppb (ng/ml) of AFQ1 spiked in the urine samples that had been subjected to a Sep-Pak cleanup treatment. In indirect ELISA in which the antigen (AFQ2a-bovine serum albumin) was coated to the solid phase followed by reaction with rabbit antibody and goat anti-rabbit immunoglobulin G-peroxidase conjugate, 50-fold less antibody was used without sacrificing sensitivity. Recoveries of AFQ1 added to urine samples (2 to 40 ppb) were 46.3 to 73% and 65.8 to 85.8% for direct and indirect ELISA, respectively.  相似文献
