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.

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 purification procedure for fish myosin heavy chain is described. The protein was injected into rabbits for production of antibodies. The specificity of the antibodies was determined by immunoblotting. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay technique was applied to quantify myosin heavy chain bound to isolated polyribosomes of epaxial muscle from fish.

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.
