  • Title: Development of a monoclonal antibody against ochratoxin A and its application in enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and gold nanoparticle immunochromatographic strip.

    Journal: Anal Chem; 2008 Sep 15; 80(18):7029-35. PubMed ID: 18698802.
    Abstract:
    A monoclonal antibody (mAb) specific to ochratoxin A (OTA) was produced from a stable hybridoma cell line, 9C9H9, generated by the fusion of P3/NS1/1-AG4-1 myeloma cells with spleen cells isolated from a BALB/c mouse immunized with OTA-keyhole limpet hemocyanin. The 9C9H9 mAb belongs to the immunoglobulin G1 (kappa chain) isotype. A competitive direct enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (cdELISA) and a competitive indirect ELISA were established for antibody characterization. The concentrations causing 50% inhibition of binding of OTA-horseradish peroxidase to the antibody by OTA, OTB, and OTC were found to be 0.32, 0.17, and 0.28 ng/mL, respectively, in the cdELISA. A sensitive and rapid mAb-based gold nanoparticle immunochromatographic strip was also developed using this mAb. This strip has a detection limit of 5 ng/mL for OTA and can be completed in 10 min. Analysis of OTA in coffee samples revealed that data obtained from immunochromatographic strip were in a good agreement with those obtained from cdELISA. The mAb-based cdELISA and immunochromatographic strip assay established in this study were sensitive and accurate for rapid screening of OTA in coffee samples.
