aflatoxins are a group of fungal toxic metabolites, which are contaminated certain food commodities. elisa is one of the sensitive methods for detection of aflatoxins. preparation and stabilizing of a proper conjugated tracer for detection of aflatoxins is probably the main step for designing an elisa method. in current study, different stabilizers were applied to stabilize a newly prepared con...

A new signal amplification strategy based on simultaneous application of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) was employed to improve the sensitivity of an electrochemical immunoassay for detection of human IgG (hIgG), as a model antigenic protein. This immunoassay system was fabricated on magnetic carboxyl-functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (COOH-MWCNT/Fe3...

A fully automated flow-injection immunoassay based on sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) is described for the model system: protein G-sepharose, rabbit IgG and horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-labelled protein A. After injecting rabbit IgG and HRP-labelled protein A into a cartridge containing protein G-sepharose sequentially, a mixture of hydrogen peroxide and the redox indicator, ...

a new signal amplification strategy based on simultaneous application of gold nanoparticles (aunps) and horseradish peroxidase (hrp) was employed to improve the sensitivity of an electrochemical immunoassay for detection of human igg (higg), as a model antigenic protein. this immunoassay system was fabricated on magnetic carboxyl-functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (cooh-mwcnt/fe3o4 na...

Undiluted urine mixed directly with HRP suppresses generation of enzyme product to less than 80% of that seen in buffer controls. Incubating dilutions of various urine preparations with HRP immobilized on concanavalin A coated microtiter plates reveals that the source of urine or HRP, and the type of HRP substrate used have minimal effect on the degree of HRP suppression; only dilutions of urin...

A novel magnetic nanoparticle-based electrochemical immunoassay of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) was designed as a model using CEA antibody-functionalized magnetic beads [DNA/Fe(3)O(4)/ZrO(2); Fe(3)O(4) (core)/ZrO(2) (shell) nano particles (ZMPs)] as immunosensing probes. To design the immunoassay, the CEA antibody and O-phenylenediamine (OPD) were initially immobilized on a chitosan/nano gold...

Ultrasensitive photoelectrochemical immunoassay of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) is proposed using an antibody-modified nanostructured TiO(2) electrode combined with bifunctional gold nanoparticles modified with the PAH antigen and horseradish peroxidase (HRP). The HRP-catalyzed reaction prompts the electron transfer between the electrode and electrolyte causing an excellent photocataly...

A sensitive dual immunoassay was proposed for the determination of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and α-fetoprotein (AFP) based on signal amplification. Monoclonal antibodies immobilized on magnetic mesoporous silica particles (Fe(3)O(4)/SiO(2)) were prepared as the primary probe. Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) labeled antibodies co-coated with HRP on gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were used as the...

The bioconjugation of an antibody to an enzymatic reporter such as horseradish peroxidase (HRP) affords an effective mechanism by which immunoassay detection of a target antigen can be achieved. The use of heterobifunctional cross-linkers to covalently link antibodies to HRP provides a simple and convenient means to maintain antibody affinity while imparting a functional reporter used for antig...
