Abstract Sensitive or simple methods for the rapid determination of cholesterol in biological fluids have been developed during the past 10 years. Sensitivity has been increased by fluorimetry of the Lieberman—Burchard reaction for cholesterol. Measurement of the reaction of cholesterol with ferric chloride is simpler. Still, there are great differences between the results when different methods are used to measure the microquantities of cholesterol present in small volumes of serum or cerebrospinal fluid. In the proposed method, the simpler ferric chloride technique has been made highly sensitive by use of fluorometry. As little as 100 µl of cerebrospinal fluid, containing less than 1 µg of cholesterol, may be used, and the reaction is stable for as long as 1 h. Interference was negligible from pigments (such as bilirubin and hemoglobin), certain drugs, and ionic substances that might be expected to affect fluorescence.

An enzyme amplified immunosensor for highly sensitive detection of Ractopamine (RAC) in foodstuff was developed based on quartz crystal microbalance (QCM). The high sensitivity was achieved by enzyme-AuNPs signal amplification strategy and magnetic β-cyclodextrins (β-CD) enrichment capacity. The novel QCM immunosensor which combines with the advantages of high selectivity of immunoassays and the high sensitivity of QCM has been developed for the determination of trace residues of RAC in food production. Under optimum conditions, the differences in the frequencies (∆f) of the QCM were proportional to the concentration of RAC over the range from 0.01 to 10 ng mL-1. The minimal detection limit was 0.01 ng mL-1. Due to its high sensitivity, acceptable stability and good selectivity, the immunosensor realized reliable quantification of RAC in real foodstuff. The proposed project has the potential to become a successful on-site screening method in food safety.

A highly sensitive chemiluminescence enzyme immunoassay (CLEIA) method for the determination of bisphenol A (BPA) was developed, which used a secondary antibody labeled with horseradish peroxidase detected with a luminol-based substrate. Under the optimized conditions, the linear range was 0.01μg/mL~0.74μg/mL, and the detection limit was 0.008μg/mL. The average recovery for BPA in barreled water was 104%. This developed method could be applied for the selective, high-throughput, and rapid determination of BPA in barreled water.
