Detection of staphylococcal enterotoxins A, B, C, D, and E in foods by radioimnunoassay, using staphyloccal cells containing protein A as immunoadsorbent.
A sensitive radioimmunoassay utilizing Staphylococcus aureus cells containing protein A as a coprecipitant was developed for the detection and quantitation of staphylococcal enterotoxins A, B, C, D, and E in a variety of foods. The enterotoxins were extracted from the foods by a simple and rapid procedure. The sensitivity of the assay is 1.0 ng or less of enterotoxin per g of food.
متن کاملEvaluation of a commercial enzyme immunoassay kit (RIDASCREEN) for detection of staphylococcal enterotoxins A, B, C, D, and E in foods.
The RIDASCREEN SET kit (R-Biopharm GmbH, Darmstadt, Germany), a commercial staphylococcal enterotoxin (SE) visual immunoassay kit, was evaluated for its efficacy. The kit utilizes monovalent capture antibodies against SE types A to E (SEA to SEE); therefore, it simultaneously detects and identifies the enterotoxin types. The major advantages of the kit are (i) a high degree of specificity (exce...
متن کاملPolyvalent antiserum agar system for the detection of staphylococcal enterotoxins A, B, C, and E.
A polyvalent antiserum agar system in capillary tubes was developed and evaluated for the detection of enterotoxins A, B, C, and/or E present in culture supernatant fluids.
متن کاملComparative evaluation of different enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay systems for the detection of staphylococcal enterotoxins A, B, C, and D.
We compared four versions of the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for their suitability for detecting staphylococcal enterotoxins. The sandwich with labeled antibody proved to be the best. We used it with a sorbent consisting of antibody-coated polystyrene spheres reacted with 20 ml of food extract. The sensitivity of the test was 0.1 ng of enterotoxin per ml, which is far below clinical relev...
متن کاملThermal inactivation of staphylococcal enterotoxins B and C.
Thermal inactivation profiles of staphylococcal enterotoxins B (SEB) and C (SEC) at 80, 100, and 121 C showed that SEC is more resistant than SEB to heat. After 24 h of incubation at 25 C, some reactivation (recovery of serological reactivity) occurred in toxins that had been inactivated by heat. If the toxin was stirred during heating, reactivation did not occur. An examination of the reactiva...
