To detect Ciprofloxacin (CPFX) residues in food stuffs of animal origin rapidly by immune method, preparation of high quality polyclonal antibody against CPFX was the most critical step of project. We produced two kinds of antigens for CPFX, using carrier protein bovine serum albumin (BSA) and ovalbumin (OVA) by a modified carbodiimide method, and then the hapten-protein conjugates were characterized by ultraviolet spectrophotometry in detecting qualitatively comparable hapten density, before being used for the immunization and detection purposes. The production of polyclonal antibodies (PcAbs) were sought following the generation of appropriate CPFX-BSA conjugate. One PcAb against Ciprofloxacin (CPFX) was produced and the titer polyclonal antibody could reach 6.25×105. In the optimized ELISA, the PcAb showed 50% inhibition at 10.93 ng/mL for CPFX in buffer.

Soybean superior varieties with high yields and are resistant to abiotic stress have been largely released, although some varieties grown in the field are not resistant to SMV. In addition, the opportunity to obtain lines of hope as prospective varieties with high yield and resistance to SMV is very small. The method for evaluating soybean germplasm is based on serological observations of 98 accessions of leaf samples from SMV inoculation with T isolate. The evaluation results of 98 accessions based on visual observations showed 31 genotypes reacting very resistant or healthy to mild resistant category to SMV T isolate  with a percentage of symptom severity of 0 −30 %. Among 31 genotypes there are 2 genotypes (PI 200485; M8Grb 44; Mlg 3288) with the category of visually very resistant and resistant, respectively and  Mlg 3288  with the category of mild resistant.  They have a good agronomic appearance with a weight of 100 seeds (˃10 g) and react negatively with polyclonal antibodies to SMV, except Mlg 3288 reaction is not consistent, despite the weight of 100 seeds (˃ 10 g). Leaf samples from 98 accessions revealed various symptoms of SMV infection in the field. This diversity of symptoms is caused by susceptibility to accession, when infection occurs, and environmental factors. Keywords—: soybean; genotipe; Soybean mosaic virus (SMV); disease severity; polyclonal  antibody

Milk Samples

Objectives: Staphylococcus aureus is a Gram-positive microorganism. S. aureus can grow in various foods and cause food poisoning by secreting enterotoxins. The most common enterotoxins involved in food poisoning are staphylococcal enterotoxin A and staphylococcal enterotoxin B, but Staphylococcal Enterotoxin A (SEA) is predominant. The main types of food contaminated with SEs are meat and meat products, poultry and eggs, milk and dairy products. The aim of this study was to develop a rapid and sensitive fluorescence immunoassay for detection of staphylococcal enterotoxin A in milk. Methods: Monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies for SEA were produced and characterized. Competitive fluorescence immunoassay based on Magnetic Nanoparticles (MNPs) was performed and optimized. MNPs were used as a solid carrier of the antibodies. The first step of the assay was immunoreaction between the immobilized antibody onto MNPs and SEA in milk sample. Then the fluorescein-SEA conjugate was added to the sample. Thus, competitive immunoreaction between MNP-mAb/MNP-pAb with SEA and SEA-FITC was performed. These immuno-complexes were separated by a magnetic separator and the obtained supernatants were analyzed. The fluorescent signal from the excess of conjugated SEA was proportional to the SEA contained in the milk. The assay duration was only 30 min. Results: The fluorescence immunoassays performed with polyclonal antibody had linear ranges from 5 pg/mL to 100 ng/mL SEA in a buffer, and from 50 pg/mL to 50 ng/mL SEA in spiked milk samples. While the same assays performed with monoclonal antibody had linear ranges from 1 pg/mL to 20 ng/mL SEA in buffer, and from 10 pg/mL to 10 ng/mL SEA in spiked milk samples. The detection limits of the developed immunoassays performed in milk were: 48 pg/mL with polyclonal antibody and 9 pg/mL with monoclonal antibody. Conclusion: A rapid and sensitive fluorescence immunoassay based on magnetic nanoparticles with a polyclonal and monoclonal antibody for determination of staphylococcal enterotoxin A in milk was developed.

Abstract Background The predominant genotype of Toxoplasma in China is the Chinese 1 (ToxoDB#9) lineage. TgCtwh3 and TgCtwh6 are two representative strains of Chinese 1, exhibiting high and low virulence to mice, respectively. Little is known regarding the virulence mechanism of this non-classical genotype. Our previous RNA sequencing data revealed differential mRNA levels of TgMIC1 in TgCtwh3 and TgCtwh6. We aim to further confirm the differential expression of TgMIC1 and its significance in this atypical genotype. Methods Quantitative real-time PCR was used to verify the RNA sequencing data; then, polyclonal antibodies against TgMIC1 were prepared and identified. Moreover, the invasion and proliferation of the parasite in HFF cells were observed after treatment with TgMIC1 polyclonal antibody or not. Results The data showed that the protein level of TgMIC1 was significantly higher in high-virulence strain TgCtwh3 than in low-virulence strain TgCtwh6 and that the invasion and proliferation of TgCtwh3 were inhibited by TgMIC1 polyclonal antibody. Conclusion Differential expression of TgMIC1 in TgCtwh3 and TgCtwh6 may explain, at least partly, the virulence mechanism of this atypical genotype.

Snake envenomation can result in hemorrhage, local necrosis, swelling, and if not treated properly can lead to adverse systemic effects such as coagulopathy, nephrotoxicity, neurotoxicity, and cardiotoxicity, which can result in death. As such, snake venom metalloproteinases (SVMPs) and disintegrins are two toxic components that contribute to hemorrhage and interfere with the hemostatic system. Administration of a commercial antivenom is the common antidote to treat snake envenomation, but the high-cost, lack of efficacy, side effects, and limited availability, necessitates the development of new strategies and approaches for therapeutic treatments. Herein, we describe the neutralization ability of anti-disintegrin polyclonal antibody on the activities of isolated disintegrins, P-II/P-III SVMPs, and crude venoms. Our results show disintegrin activity on platelet aggregation in whole blood and the migration of the SK-Mel-28 cells that can be neutralized with anti-disintegrin polyclonal antibody. We characterized a SVMP and found that anti-disintegrin was also able to inhibit its activity in an in vitro proteolytic assay. Moreover, we found that anti-disintegrin could neutralize the proteolytic and hemorrhagic activities from crude Crotalus atrox venom. Our results suggest that anti-disintegrin polyclonal antibodies have the potential for a targeted approach to neutralize SVMPs in the treatment of snakebite envenomations.

In this study, we synthesized amino propyl ciprofloxacin (CPLX-NH2) as a ciprofloxacin (CPLX) derivative. Moreover, the immune antigen CPLX-NH2-BSA and coating antigen CPLX-NH2-OVA were prepared via CPLX-NH2 coupling with bovine serum albumin (BSA) and ovalbumin (OVA), respectively. Subsequently, the Kunming mice were immunized with immune antigen to obtain the polyclonal antibody with high titer. The regression equation of CPLX-NH2 antibody was y = –17.395x + 89.331 (R2 = 0.9961); IC50 and limit of detection (LOD) were 182.39 and 20.09 ng/mL, respectively. These results were superior to that of CPLX antibody. Meanwhile, the CPLX-NH2 antibody showed cross-reactivity to fluoroquinolones (FQNs) residues. The results of the study indicated that the proper modification of the drug, namely, the addition of a suitable spacer arm between the drug and the carrier protein will improve the efficacy of the antibody, which is a favorable concept for preparation of antibody.

Flavivirus Infection

The closely related flaviviruses, dengue and Zika, cause significant human disease throughout the world. While cross-reactive antibodies have been demonstrated to have the capacity to potentiate disease or mediate protection during flavivirus infection, the mechanisms responsible for this dichotomy are still poorly understood. To understand how the human polyclonal antibody response can protect against, and potentiate the disease in the context of dengue and Zika virus infection we used intravenous hyperimmunoglobulin (IVIG) preparations in a mouse model of the disease. Three IVIGs (ZIKV-IG, Control-Ig and Gamunex®) were evaluated for their ability to neutralize and/or enhance Zika, dengue 2 and 3 viruses in vitro. The balance between virus neutralization and enhancement provided by the in vitro neutralization data was used to predict the IVIG concentrations which could protect or enhance Zika, and dengue 2 disease in vivo. Using this approach, we were able to define the unique in vivo dynamics of complex polyclonal antibodies, allowing for both enhancement and protection from flavivirus infection. Our results provide a novel understanding of how polyclonal antibodies interact with viruses with implications for the use of polyclonal antibody therapeutics and the development and evaluation of the next generation flavivirus vaccines.

Sterol Carrier Protein 2

Sterol carrier protein-2 (SCP-2) is a nonenzymatic protein of 13.5 kD which has been shown in in vitro experiments to be required for several stages in cholesterol utilization and biosynthesis. The subcellular localization of SCP-2 has not been definitively established. Using affinity-purified rabbit polyclonal antibodies against electrophoretically pure SCP-2 from rat liver, we demonstrate by immunoelectron microscopic labeling of ultrathin frozen sections of rat liver that the largest concentration of SCP-2 is inside peroxisomes. In addition the immunolabeling indicates that there are significant concentrations of SCP-2 inside mitochondria, and associated with the endoplasmic reticulum and the cytosol, but not inside the Golgi apparatus, lysosomes, or the nucleus. These results were confirmed by immunoblotting experiments with proteins from purified subcellular fractions of the rat liver cells carried out with the anti-SCP-2 antibodies. The large concentration of SCP-2 inside peroxisomes strongly supports the proposal that peroxisomes are critical sites of cholesterol utilization and biosynthesis. The presence of SCP-2 inside peroxisomes and mitochondria raises questions about the mechanisms involved in the differential targeting of SCP-2 to these organelles.
