| Popis: | Sensitive, rapid and reproducible detection of staphyloccocal enterotoxin B (SEB) in a range of different biological matrices was achieved using the ORIGEN((R)) Immunoassay System (Igen, Inc). The homologous immunoassay format consisted of a double antibody sandwich in which a biotinylated capture antibody, pre-bound to streptavidin-coated paramagnetic beads, was used to bind antigen from test samples. A detector antibody, labeled with ruthenium (II) tris-bipyridal chelate, was added and, when bound to the bead immunocomplex, generated light in the presence of an excess of tripropylamine. The light was detected and measured by the ORIGEN analyzer. The sensitivity of this assay was 1 pg of enterotoxin per ml of serum, urine, tissue, or buffer and was highly reproducible. Concentration curves generated from SEB standards produced consistently wide linear ranges (0.1-100 ng/ml), making quantitation possible with only two dilutions of sample (undiluted and 1:1000). The assay used 50 microl of sample per test and required a 30 min incubation period in addition to a 1 min per tube reading time (50 tubes maximum). This assay was significantly better in terms of sensitivity, linear range, and assay time than the standard microplate enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and should permit early SEB detection in clinical samples, food, and environmental samples. |
