چکیده

Five monoclonal antibodies were obtained after fusion of mouse P3 x 63 myeloma cells with spleen cells isolated from BALB/c mice that had been immunized with aflatoxin B1-adducted DNA complexes with methylated bovine serum albumin. Selected hybridomas were found to produce monoclonal antibodies specific for modified DNA containing both the 2,3-dihydro-2-(N7-guanyl)-3-hydroxyaflatoxin B1 and the putative 2,3-dihydro-2-(N5-formyl-2',5',6'-triamino-4'-oxo-N5-pyrimidyl)-3-hydroxyaflatoxin B1, suggesting that these DNA adducts share a common antigenic determinant. Enzyme immunoassay conditions using these monoclonal antibodies were optimized, and DNA isolated from the livers of rats given dosages of aflatoxin B1 ranging from 0.01 to 1.0 mg aflatoxin B1 per kg body weight was tested. A level of modification in DNA of 1 aflatoxin B1 residue per 1,355,000 nucleotides can be quantitatively measured. Monoclonal antibodies will be useful probes for studying the molecular interactions of aflatoxin B1 with DNA and the occurrence of aflatoxin B1:DNA adducts in tissues and cells of humans exposed to this environmental carcinogen.

Quantitation of Aflatoxin B,-modified DMA Using Monoclonal Antibodies1

Five monoclonal antibodies were obtained after fusion of mouse P3 x 63 myeloma cells with spleen cells isolated from BALB/c mice that had been immunized with aflatoxin B,-adducted DMA complexed with methylated bovine serum albumin. Selected hybridomas were found to produce monoclonal anti bodies specific for modified DMA containing both the 2,3dihydro-2-(/V7-guanyl)-3-hydroxyaflatoxin B, and th...

High-affinity monoclonal antibodies for aflatoxins and their application to solid-phase immunoassays.

Monoclonal antibodies specific for aflatoxin B1, aflatoxin B2, aflatoxin M1, and the major aflatoxin-DNA adducts were obtained following fusion of mouse SP-2 myeloma cells with spleen cells of mice immunized with aflatoxin B1 covalently bound to bovine gamma globulin. The aflatoxin-modified protein used to immunize mice was produced chemically by activating aflatoxin B1 to a 2,3-epoxide derivat...

Rapid and sensitive detection of aflatoxins using immunomagnetic bead-based recovery and real-time qPCR assay

Several mold species of Aspergillus produce secondary metabolites called Aflatoxins. These aflatoxins can be carcinogenic and are considered potential threats to human and animal health when ingested. Aflatoxins occur naturally in food and feed products in microgram to milligram per gram of food or feed quantities thus detection methodology should be sensitive and specific which is not obtained...

Quantitation of aflatoxin B1-DNA adducts in woodchuck hepatocytes and rat liver tissue by indirect immunofluorescence analysis.

A quantitative indirect immunofluorescence technique was developed utilizing a monoclonal antibody (6A10) recognizing the imidazole ring-opened form of the major N-7 guanine adduct of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1). This method was used to investigate adduct formation in woodchuck hepatocytes treated in culture and in liver tissue of rats treated i.p. with AFB1. Fluorescein isothiocyanate-labeled secondar...

Production and characterization of monoclonal antibodies for aflatoxin B1.

Hybridomas that secreted antibodies for aflatoxin B1 were selected using two immunization protocols referred to as A and B. Protocol A is a standard immunization method and resulted in the selection of only two clones that produced monoclonal antibodies against aflatoxin B1. In protocol B a unique immunization schedule which resulted in the generation of 10 hybridomas is described. Of the 10, o...
