چکیده

We describe an internally referenced immunochemical test-strip for use in the rapid detection of morphine. The method is based on the "enzyme-channelling" immunoassay technique, and a glucose oxidase-horseradish peroxidase enzyme pair is used to immunospecifically generate an insoluble, colored reaction product on the test-strip surface. Test strips are composed of two active surfaces, each of which contain co-immobilized glucose oxidase and antibody. The indicator pad contains antibody directed against the drug, and the color that develops on its surface is inhibited by the presence of drug in the sample. The reference pad contains anti-peroxidase and is used to set the assay detection limit and normalize for variations in temperature, timing, and sample interference. The 10-min assay protocol involves incubating the strip in sample, then incubating it in a developer solution containing glucose, a peroxidase chromogenic substrate, and a peroxidase conjugate of the analyte. The ratio of the color formed on the indicator pad to that formed on the reference pad is used to score the test as positive or negative for drug at a predetermined concentration.

Development of Oral Morphine Rapid Test by Using Yolk Immunoglobulin

Avian antibody technology has been used in diagnosis and therapy. A”lab-on-a-chip” system for detecting morphine in an oral fluid sample was described. An antibody against morphine was obtained in an avian system. The immunogen (M-C6-HS-BSA) was injected into Leghorn chicken. Furthermore, this antibody could be used in developing an enzyme immunoassay and immunochromatography to detect morphine...

Development of a Lateral Flow Immunoassay Using Recombinant Dense Granular Antigen (GRA) 7 to Detect Anti-Toxoplasma gondii IgG Antibodies

Toxoplasma gondii is an intracellular protozoan parasite that causes toxoplasmosis and is of medical importance in pregnant women and immunosuppressed patients. In recent years, many methods have been developed for the detection of infection caused by this parasite; however, most of the developed methods are not adequately sensitive. The dense granular antigen (GRA) ...

Homogeneous enzyme immunoassay for opiates in urine.

An assay technique, homogeneous enzyme immunoassay, is described for the quantitative determination of morphine derivatives in biological fluids. An enzyme is labeled with morphine. When the enzymelabeled morphine is bound by antimorphine antibodies, the enzyme is rendered inactive. Free morphine competes with enzyme-morphine for antibody binding sites preventing inhibition of enzyme activity. ...
