Immobilization and assay of low-molecular-weight phosphomannosyl receptor in multiwell plates 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A novel sensitive binding assay for quantitation of a low-molecular-weight phosphomannosyl receptor (41-46 K) was devised. The receptor was immobilized by immunochemical means in the wells of polystyrene multiwell plates. The lysosomal enzyme ligand, testicular beta-galactosidase, was added and receptor-bound beta-galactosidase was measured by conventional colorimetric analysis using p-nitrophenyl beta-galactoside as substrate. Inhibitors of the binding of beta-galactosidase to the receptor were removed prior to addition of beta-galactosidase and did not interfere with the assay. Low-molecular-weight phosphomannosyl receptor was readily quantitated in the range of 4 to 100 ng of receptor protein. Binding of beta-galactosidase to the receptor was specifically inhibited by 5 mM mannose 6-phosphate. The receptor exhibited optimum binding of beta-galactosidase at pH 5.7 and was saturated with beta-galactosidase at 320 munits/ml in the presence of 20 mM MnCl2. The requirement for MnCl2 was greatly diminished at higher concentrations of beta-galactosidase. Application of the assay procedure to the quantitation of the low-molecular-weight phosphomannosyl receptor in mammalian tissues is discussed. 相似文献

A high-performance liquid chromatographic method for the quantification of acrolein following incubation of cyclophosphamide (CP) with human liver microsomes was developed. Based on the formation of the fluorescent derivative 7-hydroxyquinoline by condensation of acrolein with 3-aminophenol quantitation was performed without prior extraction or other sample cleanup procedures. The method showed sufficient sensitivity with a limit of detection of 5 ng/ml and a limit of quantification of 10 ng/ml. The suitability of the method is shown for enzyme kinetic studies. 相似文献

Three high-performance liquid chromatographic methods are described for the detection of the novel antifolate anticancer drug (6R)-5,10-dideaza-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrofolate (lometrexol): one with fluorometric detection and two with detection by UV absorbance. An assay for plasma lometrexol using UV detection (288 nm) and reversed-phase chromatography was developed, with a quantitation limit of 0.2 μg/ml and linearity up to 10 μg/ml. This assay was modified for measurement of lometrexol in urine, with a quantitation limit of 2 μg/ml and linearity up to 25 μg/ml. An alternative assay for plasma lometrexol using derivatization and fluorescence detection (excitation at 325 nm, emission at 450 nm) was also developed, which proved twenty-fold more sensitive (quantitation limit of 10 ng/ml) than the UV assay, and which was linear up to 250 ng/ml. The fluoremetric method requires sample oxidation with manganese dioxide prior to analysis, and uses ion-pair chromatography with tetramethylammonium hydrogensulphate as an ion-pair reagent. All assays use a similar preliminary solid-phase extraction method (recovery as assessed by UV absorption >73%), with C10-desmethylene lometrexol added for internal standardisation. Each assay is highly reproducible (inter-assay precision in each assay is <10%). Applicability of the fluorescence-based assay to lometrexol in plasma and the UV-based assay lometrexol in urine is demonstrated by pharmacokinetic studies in patients treated as part of a Phase I clinical evaluation of the drug. 相似文献

A simple reproducible assay to determine the concentration of 24,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 in blood plasma is described. This technique employs quantitation of the steroid by direct spectrophotometric analysis, rather than competitive protein binding assay after partition and high-pressure liquid chromatographic purification of plasma extracts. The concentration of metabolite observed in normal adult plasma is 2.4 ± 1.1 ng/ml. 相似文献

A method for the enantiospecific quantitation of two commonly prescribed non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (ketoprofen and ibuprofen) is described. The method involves formation of a mixed anhydride of the drug with ethylchloroformate and subsequent conversion to an amide by reaction with optically active amphetamine. The subsequently formed diastereomers are separated by gas chromatography—mass spectrometry using selected-ion monitoring. The assay is capable of quantifying ketoprofen (2 ng/ml) and ibuprofen (3 ng/ml) enantiomers from a 200-μl sample of synovial fluid or plasma and is particularly suitable for protein binding studies. 相似文献

A rapid high-performance liquid chromatographic method for the quantitation of mirtazapine in human plasma is presented. The method is based on a liquid-liquid extraction and reversed-phase chromatography with fluorimetric detection. The separation was performed on a Luna microm C(18)(2) 50 x 4.6 mm I.D. column using an isocratic elution. Zolpidem hemitartrate was used as the internal standard. The between-day precision expressed by relative standard deviation was less than 5% and inaccuracy does not exceed 6%. A low limit of quantitation (1.5 ng/ml) and a short time of analysis (4 min) makes this assay suitable for pharmacokinetic studies. 相似文献

A simple, sensitive, and rapid gas chromatographic–mass spectrometric method is described for the simultaneous detection and quantitation of nicotine and its metabolite, cotinine, in urine and serum. The analytes and their respective deuterated internal standards were extracted by liquid–liquid extraction coupled to centrifugation and evaporation. The detection limit of the assay was 0.16 ng/ml for both nicotine and cotinine. The limit of quantitation for each analyte was 1.25 ng/ml. 相似文献

Immunoreagents based on polymer dispersions consisting of unimodal polyacrolein (PAL) microspheres with diameters in the range 0.3-2.0 microns have been prepared and evaluated by various immunoassay techniques such as immunoradiometric assay of ferritin and microtitre particle agglutination and immunofiltration dot assay of group-specific polysaccharide of S. pyogenes (A-PS) in comparison with conventional carriers and methods. The antibodies were covalently or indirectly bound to the PAL. The coupled antibodies to ferritin retained a high average affinity (Ka = 4.5 x 10(9) M-1). In comparison with microcrystalline cellulose-based immunosorbent, more than an order-of-magnitude lower amount of PAL-IgG was necessary for the analysis of ferritin. Use of PAL-IgG gave a higher sensitivity of assay with a detection limit of 0.7 x 10(-13) M l-1 and a wider concentration range of antigen detection (about four orders of magnitude) without manifestation of the high-dose hook effect. Particle agglutination assay of A-PS in microtitre plate was shown to be a simple, demonstrative and highly sensitive one-step analytical method with a detection limit of 0.05 ng A-PS/ml or 10(4) cells/ml. The sensitivity of immunofiltration assay using both enzyme and latex markers was shown to be approximately the same (50 ng A-PS/ml) and the duration of the assay was 3-5 min. No cross-reaction of latex conjugates with non-A Streptococcus cell lysates were observed. 相似文献

Staphylococcus aureus enterotoxin A (SEA) is a leading cause of food poisoning. The current test for functional activity of SEA requires monkeys or kittens. The major drawbacks of animal assays are lack of quantitation, poor reproducibility, low sensitivity, and high cost. In this report we describe and evaluate an alternative assay using T-cell proliferation to measure SEA activity in food. Human and rat lymphocytes proliferate in response to concentrations of SEA as low as 1 pg/ml, well below the pathogenic dose of 100 ng. This proliferation assay is highly sensitive, quantitative, and simple. Nonradioactive assays of T-cell proliferation were also suitable for detecting and measuring SEA, although with a 10-fold lower sensitivity. To evaluate the utility of this assay for food testing, four different food samples were mixed with SEA. In each sample, SEA was detected at a concentration of 1 ng/ml. Heat-inactivated SEA produced no detectable proliferation. These results demonstrate that an in vitro cell proliferation assay is an advantageous alternative to existing animal assays for measuring SEA activity in food. 相似文献

A biotin-lipopolysaccharide (biotin-LPS) conjugate was synthesized from LPS smooth from Salmonella minnesota, yielding a conjugate with a biotin/LPS ratio equal to 1:1 and endotoxic activity of 0.08 EU ng(-1). The conjugate was used in an amperometric competitive assay to determine endotoxins with endotoxin-neutralizing protein (ENP) as the recognition element. The assay is performed on a modified electrode, involving the covalent binding of carboxymethyl dextran (CMDex) to a cystamine-modified gold electrode and then the covalent binding of the recognition protein, ENP, to CMDex. The assay is carried out by incubating the modified electrode in an LPS sample to which biotin-LPS was added. Both species compete for the recognition sites on the modified surface. After the incubation stage and a careful rinsing, the electrode is immersed in a solution containing neutravidin-horseradish peroxidase conjugate (N-HRP), which binds to the sites containing biotin-LPS on the electrode. The system is rinsed and a current signal is generated by the addition of hydrogen peroxide and a redox mediator. The assay is able to detect LPS from Salmonella minnesota at concentrations as low as 0.1 ng ml(-1), equivalent to 0.07 EU ml(-1). 相似文献

Laboratory scale development of a two site micro enzyme linked immuno assay kit is described. The kit comprises rabbit anti human alphafetoprotein (AFP), anti human AFP IgG peroxidase conjugate and standard AFP. All the above reagents were prepared in the laboratory. The kit is eminently suitable for early screening of blood sample of pregnant women for neural tube defects of their fetuses and for the quantitation of AFP as a tumor marker. The assay kit was used to determine AFP in 76 sera from women at different stages of pregnancy. During 1st trimester AFP level was 18 to 119 ng/ml, during 2nd trimester the concentration varied from 85 to 302 ng/ml and during 3rd from 103 to 580 ng/ml. No evidence for maternal antibody to AFP was found. The above data agree with AFP level in pregnant women reported by earlier workers, using RIA or ELISA. The present ELISA kit would hopefully be much cheaper than internationally available ELISA kits for human AFP. 相似文献

BAPTA free acid was identified as the main metabolic product of 1,2-bis(2-aminophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N',N'-tetraacetic acid tetra(actoxymethyl ester) (BAPTA-AM), a neuroprotective agent in cerebral ischemia, in rats. In this paper, liquid chromatography-ultraviolet (LC-UV) and mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) methods were employed for the determination of BAPTA free acid in rat urine and feces and rat plasma, respectively. By liquid-liquid extraction and LC-UV analysis, a limit of quantitation of 1000 ng/ml using 0.2 ml rat urine for extraction and 250 ng/ml using 1 ml rat fecal homogenate supernatant for extraction could be reached. The assay was linear in the range of 1000-50,000 ng/ml for rat urine and 250-10,000 ng/ml for rat fecal homogenate supernatant. Because the sensitivity of the LC-UV method was apparently insufficient for evaluating the pharmacokinetic profile of BAPTA in rat plasma, a LC-MS/MS method was subsequently developed for the analysis of BAPTA free acid. By protein precipitation and LC-MS/MS analysis, the limit of quantitation was 5 ng/ml using 0.1 ml rat plasma and the linear range was 5.0-500 ng/ml. Both methods were validated and can be used to support a thorough preclinical pharmacokinetic evaluation of BAPTA-AM liposome injection. 相似文献

The development of a sandwich enzyme immunoassay for rat retinol-binding protein using molecular biological techniques was described. Rat retinol-binding protein gene cloned by the PCR method was expressed by a fusion vector pEZZI8 in Escherichia coli strain HB101. A recombinant retinol-binding protein fused with IgG-binding domain ZZ of protein A was purified with IgG-Sepharose. Antibody against the recombinant protein was found to be specific to rat retinol-binding protein in plasma by immunoblot analysis. Affinity-purified anti-recombinant protein IgG was biotinylated and used for the sandwich enzyme immunoassay. In this assay, the measurable range is 1.9-60 ng/ml and the coefficients of variation within and between the assay series (assay range: 4-30 ng/ml) are 4.30 ± 4.33 and 5.32 ± 1.45%, respectively. Cross-reactivity of the immunoassay was examined using bovine, human, and mouse serum. There was a cross-reaction only with mouse serum. In an in vitro experiment, retinol-binding protein produced by rat hepatocytes could be measured by the sandwich enzyme immunoassay. 相似文献

We have developed and optimized an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for absolute quantitation of human beta-glucuronidase. This is a double antibody sandwich system employing two murine monoclonal antibodies specific for human beta-glucuronidase developed in our laboratories. The method involves (a) coating of the high binding polystyrene microtitration plate with the first antibody (7B6 IgG), (b) blocking of remaining active sites with 3% bovine serum albumin in phosphate-buffered saline, (c) application of samples, (d) addition of the biotinylated second antibody (6D2 IgG), (e) addition of streptavidin-horseradish peroxidase, and (f) development of color with o-phenylenediamine dihydrochloride-H2O2 and reading in a microplate reader at a wavelength of 490 nm. The method is highly sensitive with an optimal range of 10 to 100 ng/ml of the enzyme and is reproducible with intraday and interday precisions of 3.2 and 4.1%, respectively. The enzyme contents of 20 urine and 20 bile samples quantitated by this ELISA method were, respectively, 148 +/- 101 and 6380 +/- 3780 ng/ml (means +/- SD) which correlated well with their enzyme activities. Such a method for absolute quantitation of human beta-glucuronidase is essential for studying its pathophysiologic roles in cholelithiasis and carcinogenesis and can also be used clinically as an indicator for tissue damage or malignancy. 相似文献

A method for the determination of elastase activity is described which uses soluble α-[3H]elastin as substrate. Soluble α-elastin was shown to have the same substrate specificity as natural insoluble elastin. At a substrate concentration of 1 mg/ml, approximately three times half-saturating substrate concentration, the assay is rapid, 1 h, sensitive, 10 ng/ml elastase, and linear up to an enzyme concentration of 250 ng/ml. The addition of 1000 μ/ml Trasylol or 10?4mN-α-tosyl-l-lysyl chloromethane and 10?4m tosyl-l-phenylalanyl chloromethane allowed the specific measurement of elastase activity in the presence of trypsin and chymotrypsin activity. 相似文献

A sensitive high-performance liquid chromatographic assay has been developed and validated for the determination of methyl N-[5-[[4-(2-pyridinyl)-1-piperazinyl]carbonyl]-1H-benzimidazol-2-yl] carbamate (CDRI compound 81/470) in normal rat blood. The method described herein is simple, with improved selectivity and sensitivity over a previously reported HPLC method. The limit of quantitation is 10 ng/ml (method 1) and 2.5 ng/ml (method 2) in blood, as compared with 40 ng/ml for the previous method. The standard curve in blood is linear over the concentration range 10–1000 ng/ml in method 1 and 2.5–1000 ng/ml in method 2 and the extraction recovery is higher than 80% for both methods. 相似文献

Gemcitabine-squalene is a new prodrug that self-organizes in water forming nanoassemblies. It exhibits better anti-cancer properties in vitro and in vivo than gemcitabine. A liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry assay of gemcitabine-squalene and gemcitabine was developed in human plasma in order to quantitate gemcitabine and its squalene conjugate. After protein precipitation with acetonitrile/methanol (90/10, v/v), the compounds were analyzed by reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography and detected by tandem mass spectrometry using multiple reaction monitoring. The method was linear over the concentration range of 10-10,000 ng/ml of human plasma for both compounds with an accuracy lower than 10.4% and a precision below 14.8%. The method showed a lower limit of quantitation of 10 ng/ml of human plasma for dFdC and dFdC-SQ. A preliminary in vivo study in mice was shown as application of the method as no significant difference between human and mice plasma for the analysis of dFdC and dFdC-SQ was demonstrated. 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
