Since December 2019, a novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) has resulted in a global pandemic of coronavirus disease (COVID-19). Although viral nucleic acid test (NAT) has been applied predominantly to detect SARS-CoV-2 RNA for confirmation diagnosis of COVID-19, an urgent need for alternative, rapid, and sensitive immunoassays is required for primary screening of virus. In this study, we developed a smartphone-based nanozyme-linked immunosorbent assay (SP-NLISA) for detecting the specific nucleocapsid phosphoprotein (NP) of SARS-CoV-2 in 37 serum samples from 20 COVID-19 patients who were diagnosed by NAT previously. By using SP-NLISA, 28/37 (75.7%) serum samples were detected for NP antigens and no cross-reactivity with blood donors’ control samples collected from different areas of China. In a control assay using the conventional enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), only 7/37 (18.91%) serum samples were detected for NP antigens and no cross-reactivity with control samples. SP-NLISA could be used for rapid detection of SARS-CoV-2 NP antigen in primary screening of SARS-CoV-2 infected individuals.

ABSTRACTThe utility of the IgG fraction of human filarial serum immunoglobulin in detecting circulating antigen by sandwich enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was studied. 27 of 33 sera from persons with microfilaracmia, 19 of 30 sera from clinical cases of filariasis, 4 of 30 sera from normal persons from a region endemic for filariasis showed the presence of circulating filarial antigen. All the 20 normal sera from the area where filariasis was not endemic gave negative reaction for filarial antigen. Those sera from persons with microfilaracmia that showed the presence of circulating antigen also showed an apparent positive correlation between the microfilarial density and the antigen titre.

Food analysis based on the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) is simple, sensitive and rapid, but requires a costly colorimetric instrument. The aim of this work was to develop a portable, low-cost and user-friendly colorimetric instrument for colorimetric ELISA and aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) detection. The principle of the developed instrument was employing a light-emitting diode to generate the signal light and using a light-dependent resistor to measure the signal light absorbed by the oxidized 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethyl benzidine. The absorption spectra revealed that the solution absorbed signal light more strongly after reaction with H2SO4, and blue light would be favorably absorbed. Evaluations on the stability and accuracy of the instrument and interference from ambient light showed that the fabricated instrument was stable, accurate, capable of quantitative detection and insensitive to ambient light changes. In addition, this instrument is user-friendly since it could calculate and report the final amount of AFB1 to the operator. Measurements of maize and peanuts showed that the instrument provided as accurate results as the professional equipment. With the low fabrication cost (about RMB 129 or USD 20), portability, and user-friendliness, this instrument presents attractive potential in the rapid detection of AFB1.

A double-antibody sandwich ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) has been successfully developed for the detection of defined amounts of pig meat (1–50%) in raw beef. Antibodies against pig sarcoplasmic extracts were produced in rabbits. Pig-specific antibodies were affinity purified by removing antibodies which crossreacted with horse, chicken or beef extracts followed by immunoadsorption and elution from a pig-extract column. The ELISA involved capturing antigens in sarcoplasmic extracts with pig specific antibodies immobilized on 96-well plates, detecting bound antigen with pig specific, horseradish peroxidase-labeling antibody, and measuring peroxidase activity by the conversion of a clear substrate to a colored product.

Abstract This study investigated beta-casomorphin 7 (BCM7) in yogurt by means of LC-tandem MS (MS/MS) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and use LC-MS/MS as the “gold standard” method to evaluate the applicability of a commercial ELISA. The level of BCM7 in milk obtained from ELISA analysis was much lower than that obtained by LC-MS/MS analysis and trended to increase during fermentation and storage of yogurt. Meanwhile, the results obtained from LC-MS/MS showed that BCM7 degraded during stages of yogurt processing, and its degradation may have been caused by X-prolyl dipeptidyl aminopeptidase activity. As a result, the commercial sandwich ELISA kit was not suitable for the quantification of BCM7 in fermented dairy milk.

Background. Malaria control efforts are limited in rural areas. A low-cost system to monitor response without the use of electricity is needed. Plasmodium aldolase is a malaria biomarker measured using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) techniques. A three-part system using ELISA was developed consisting of a microfluidic chip, hand crank centrifuge, and a smartphone. Methods. A circular microfluidic chip was fabricated using clear acrylic and a CO2 laser. A series of passive valves released reagents at precise times based upon centrifugal force. Color change was measured via smartphone camera using an application programmed in Java. The microchip was compared to a standard 96-well sandwich ELISA. Results. Results from standard ELISA were compared to microchip at varying concentrations (1–10 ng/mL). Over 15 different microfluidic patterns were tested, and a final prototype of the chip was created. The prototype microchip was compared to standard sandwich ELISA (n=20) using samples of recombinant aldolase. Color readings of standard ELISA and microfluidic microchip showed similar results. Conclusion. A low-cost microfluidic system could detect and follow therapeutic outcomes in rural areas and identify resistant strains.

A competitive ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) was performed to detect and quantify bovine milk in ovine and caprine milk and cheese using a monoclonal antibody (AH4 MAb) against bovine β-casein. Ovine or caprine milk and cheese containing bovine milk were added simultaneously with the AH4 MAb to the wells of a microtiter plate that had been previously sensitized with commercial bovine β-casein. The bovine caseins in milk or cheese samples compete with the bovine β-casein bound to the plate for the AH4 MAb binding sites. Further immunorecognition of AH4 MAb bound to the bovine β-casein immobilized onto the plate was attained with rabbit anti-mouse immunoglobulin conjugated to peroxidase. Subsequent enzymic conversion of the substrate showed clear differences in absorbance values during assay of mixtures of ovine and caprine milk and cheese containing various amounts of bovine milk. The competitive ELISA developed in this work allows the quantitative detection of bovine milk in ovine and caprine milk and cheese samples in the range of 0.5 to 25% of substitution.
