Hapten heterology was introduced into the steps of hybridoma selection for the development of monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) against deoxynivalenol (DON). Firstly, a novel heterologous DON hapten was synthesised and covalently coupled to proteins (i.e. bovine serum albumin (BSA), ovalbumin and horseradish peroxidase) using the linkage of cyanuric chloride (CC). After immunisation, antisera from different DON immunogens were checked for the presence of useful antibodies. Next, both homologous and heterologous enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays were conducted to screen for hybridomas. It was found that heterologous screening could significantly reduce the proportion of false positives and appeared to be an efficient approach for selecting hybridomas of interest. This strategy resulted in two kinds of broad-selective MAbs against DON and its analogues. They were quite distinct from other reported DON-antibodies in their cross-reactivity profiles. A unique MAb 13H1 derived from DON-CC-BSA immunogen could recognise DON and its analogues in the order of HT-2 toxin ≯ 15-acetyl-DON ≯ DON ≯ nivalenol, with IC50 ranging from 1.14 to 7.69 μg/ml. Another preferable MAb 10H10 generated from DON-BSA immunogen manifested relatively similar affinity to DON, 3-acetyl-DON and 15-acetyl-DON, with IC50 values of 22, 15 and 34 ng/ml, respectively. This is the first broad-specific MAb against DON and its two acetylated forms and thus it can be used for simultaneous detection of the three mycotoxins.

AbstractThere is a common misconception that the generation of hapten-specific monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) requires the use of a heterologous conjugate to ensure carrier-specific antibodies not being detected. In this study, salbutamol (SAL) was used as a model hapten to exhibit the benefits of bovine serum albumin (BSA) as a carrier for developing hapten-specific mAbs. SAL-BSA conjugate would serve as both an immune antigen and a screening antigen during the preparation of SAL-specific mAbs. Six hybridomas were identified to secret mAbs specific for free SAL with minor or negligible cross-reactivity with other β-agonists. Meanwhile, none of hybrodomas secreting anti-BSA antibodies were screened out even though the fetal bovine serum (FBS) added to the medium decreased from 10% to 1% (v/v). Based on one of the six mAbs, 3F12, a direct competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (dcELISA) was developed for meausring SAL. Under the optimized assay, the quantitative working range was from 312.5 to 20,000 pg/mL (R2 = 0.9959), with a limit of detection (LOD) of 142.9 pg/mL. The results showed that BSA is an efficient and suitable protein carrier for facilitating the development of hapten-specific mAbs.

Antibody raised against T-2 toxin cross-reacted poorly with 3′-OH-T-2 toxin. A new immunogen was prepared by conjugation of hemisuccinate (HS) of 3′-OH-T-2 toxin to bovine serum albumin (BSA). Antibodies against 3′-OH-T-2 toxin were demonstrated by a radioimmunoassay 10 wk after immunization of rabbits with this new immunogen using tritiated 3′-OH-T-2 toxin as the testing ligand. Highest titers (1:6,000) were obtained 17 wk after immunization and two booster injections. The antibodies had good cross-reactivity with T-2 toxin, acetyl-T-2 toxin and 3′-OH-acetyl-T-2 toxin. The relative cross-reactivity of this antibody with 3′-OH-T-2, acetyl-T-2, T-2, 3′-OHacetyl-T-2, 3′-OH-T-2-HS, T-2 isomer, HT-2 and 3′-OH-HT-2 was 1, 3, 4, 5, 15, 30, 45 and 175, respectively. No crossreaction was found when 3′-OH-T-2 triol, T-2-triol, T-2-tetraol, DAS and DON at a concentration of 1 μg per assay was tested. The detection limit for 3′-OH-T-2 toxin by the RIA was about 0.1 ng per assay.

Abstract An easy, sensitive, competitive indirect enzyme- linked immunosorbent assay (CI-ELISA) for specti nomycin in chicken plasma was developed. Preparation of a spectinomycin-bovine serum albumin conjugate in which the hapten is linked to the carrier protein through the C-4 position is described. Antibodies raised against antigens in rabbits had excellent specificity for spectinomycin, exhibiting a cross-reactivity of 44.0% with dihydrospectinomy-cin and 13.8% with tetrahydrospectinomycin. No cross-reactivity was observed with other antibiotics. The detection limit of the CI-ELISA was 2 ng/mL (equivalent into 40 ng/mL undiluted chicken plasma) spectinomycin. Known amounts (0.1-100 μg/mL) of spectinomycin were added to chicken plasma and then analyzed. Average recoveries were 97-110%. This procedure may be used without prior extraction of samples.

A stable hybridoma cell line (DD9) has been produced secreting a monoclonal antibody specific for porcine muscle proteins. The DD9 monoclonal antibody (mAb) failed to show a significant cross-reactivity when tested against beef, horse, chicken, and soya proteins, as well as bovine caseins, gelatin, and bovine serum albumin. The DD9 mAb was further used in an indirect ELISA format for detection of defined amounts of porcine meat (1–100%) in beef and chicken meat mixtures immobilized on 96-well plates. Immunorecognition of monoclonal antibodies adsorbed to porcine meat was made with rabbit anti-mouse immunoglobulins conjugated to the enzyme horseradish peroxidase.

Abstract. Highly specific antibodies to 13, 14-dihydro-15-ketoprostaglandin F2α (PGFM) were raised in rabbits. The animals were immunized with PGFM-bovine serum albumin (BSA)-conjugates. Prior to the incubation procedure PGFM was extracted by a rapid method with dichloromethane followed by column chromatography. The antisera dilution was 1:10000 and the cross-reactivity towards prostaglandin A2, E2, F2α, 13, 14-dihydro-15-ketoprostaglandin E2 and the 15-ketoprostaglandin E2 and F2α was < 1%. The limit of detection was 1.9 ± 0.6 pg/ml plasma over the standard range 1.9–250 pg. The intra- and inter-assay variations were 3.9 and 15%, respectively. PGFM was measured throughout the menstrual cycle in female volunteers. In normal ovulatory women (n = 3) plasma levels of PGFM varied between 65.6 to 107.1 pg/ml. No significant variations of plasma PGFM were seen during the cycle. In anovulatory women (n = 4) no difference of PGFM was found during the cycle. PGFM levels in hyperprolactinaemic but ovulating women tend to be higher than in anovulatory, and normoprolactinaemic subjects. These data strongly indicate that PGFM is not correlated with other hormonal parameters tested here in the normal and anovulatory cycles.

Abstract Current immunoassays for digoxin do not distinguish digoxin from its glycosidic metabolites. We have synthesized a novel digoxin/bovine serum albumin conjugate via reductive ozonolysis of the lactone ring such that the carbohydrate moiety of digoxin remains intact. Antibodies raised against this conjugate show minimal cross reactivity to digoxigenin, bisdigitoxide, monodigitoxide, digoxigenin, and digitoxin. With this antibody, digoxin can be measured in the presence of these metabolites.
