Popis: In this study, we developed a monoclonal antibody against 2,3’,4,5’,6-pentabromodiphenylether (BDE-121) using a synthesized hapten, and established an indirect competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (IC-ELISA), using gold nanoparticles, to amplify the signal. The monoclonal antibody showed high specificity, with a half inhibitory concentration (IC50) value of 2.78 ng/mL, towards BDE-121. The developed IC-ELISA exhibited high sensitivity and stability as well as good recovery. The intra-assay deviation is below 6.8% and the inter-assay deviations range from 6.5% to 8.7%. The assay of the actual samples was found to be consistent with those of gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS).
