Detection of TNT-derivatives with recombinant phages
نویسندگان
چکیده
New immunoreagents for detection of TNT-derivatives TNP and TNP-Tris were developed using phage display technique. The monovalent and pentavalent recombinant phages carrying scFv specific for TNT were constructed and compared with each other to define the impact of valency and molecule dimension on antibody binding in immunoassay. Also, the bifunctional phages were generated, which carried TNT-specific scFvs as well as enzyme β-lactamase as a model marker on its surface. The most sensitive recombinant phages were selected and used for detection of TNP-Tris in a competitive ELISA based on immobilized antigen. Preincubation and partial phages saturation with a sample containing antigen allowed competition with immobilized hapten and displacement of free antigen. The phages exposing enzyme were used as immunoreagents for single step detection. The other phages were detected with specific marked antibodies. To date, the results presented in this paper are the first ever published regarding the recombinant phages for the detection of TNT.

Detection and evaluation of non-recombinants in cDNA libraries by multiple cloning region PCR.
Bacteriophages that are routinely used in cDNA libraries do not require any biological selection for forming plaques. Thus parental non-recombinant phages are always found in variable proportions together with recombinant ones in all cDNA libraries. The presence of non-recombinants in significant proportions dilutes the abundance of rare cDNA species and makes library screening difficult. If th...

Background and Objective : Bacteriophage vectors recently have been considered as a gene transfer and vaccine delivery vehicles chiefly due to their low cost, safety, and physical stability. Since, little is known about phage mediated gene transfer in mammalian hosts, A group of invitro experiments were performed to ascertain gene transfercapability of these vehicles .
