A lateral flow immunochromatographic strip test was developed for rapid and sensitive on-site detection of hexoestrol (HES) residues in fish samples with colloidal gold labelling of the anti-HES monoclonal antibody. The strip is composed of a sample pad, a conjugate reagent pad, an absorbent pad and a test membrane containing a control line and a test line. The sensitivity (half inhibitory concentration, IC 50 ) of the strip in the detection of fish extract samples was confirmed to be 1.86 µg kg −1 , and the limit of detection value was 0.62 µg kg −1 . For intra-assay and inter-assay reproducibility, recoveries of HES-spiked samples ranged from 86.3% to 92.3% and 85.8% to 93.4%, coefficients of variation were 2.91–4.64% and 4.24–5.17%, respectively. High-performance liquid chromatography was employed to confirm the performance of the strip. The strip test takes less than 10 min, and thus provides a repaid method for on-site detection of HES residues.

ABSTRACT We report a novel one-step immunochromatographic strip test for the rapid, qualitative detection of nevirapine in plasma samples from human immunodeficiency virus-infected patients. The sensitivity was 100% (95% confidence interval [95% CI], 97.8 to 100%), and the specificity was 99.5% (95% CI, 97.2 to 99.9%). The limit of detection was 25 ng/ml. Immunochromatographic strip tests are simple, rapid, and cheap assays that could greatly facilitate drug level monitoring in resource-limited settings.

An enzyme immunoassay (ELISA) and an immunochromatographic strip were designed for a rapid detection of nortestosterone in dietary supplements. Two polyclonal antibodies and two types of nortestosterone-protein coating conjugates were tested to develop the most appropriate method. Under optimal experimental conditions, the most sensitive ELISA achieved the IC<sub>50 </sub>and the limit of detection values of 6.41 and 0.09 ng/ml, respectively. The assay specificity was tested measuring cross-reactivity of several steroids. The interference with the assay was negligible (&lt; 0.1%), except for cross-reactivity with another frequently abused steroid testosterone (23%). The optimised gold particle-based immunochromatographic strip provided in semi-quantitative test a visual detection limit of 1&nbsp;ng/ml. None of these methods showed the interference using a filtrate of the suspension of non-contaminated sample. After the validation for particular matrices, the ELISA and the strip test could be useful tools for a rapid analysis of nortestosterone in crude extracts of dietary supplements.
