Methamidophos (Met) is a broad spectrum organophosphorus insecticide and acaricide.Even a trace of its residue is harmful to humans and many animals.In this study,the synthesis and identification of colloidal gold particles and antibody-colloidal gold conjugates were performed,and the preparation of colloidal gold immunochromatography strip was conducted for detection of Met residue.The size of colloidal gold particles was checked using a transmission electron microscope (TEM).The formation of antibody-coll...

To purify Methamidophos (Met) monoclonal antibodies with two methods and compare immune activity of purified antibodies. Method Caprylic acid ammonium sulphate precipition (CAASP) method and Sepharose protein-A (SPA) affinity chromatography method were used to purify Met monoclonal antibodies, UV spectrum scanning was used to determine protein content and recovery of purified antibodies, sodium dodecylsulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) was used to analyze the purity of purified antibodies, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to determine immune activity of purified antibodies. Results Antibody protein content and recovery rate with CAASP method were 7.62 mg/mL and 8.05% respectively, antibody protein content and recovery rate with SPA method were 6.45 mg/mL and 5.52% respectively. Purity of antibodies purified by SPA method was higher than that by CAASP method. The half-maximal inhibition concentration (IC50) of antibodies purified by SPA to Met was 181.26 靏/mL, and the linear working range and the limit of quantification (LOD) were 2.43-3896.01 靏/mL and 1.03 靏/mL, respectively. The IC50 of antibodies purified by CAASP to Met was 352.82 靏/mL, and the linear working range and LOD were 10.91-11412.29 靏/mL and 3.42 靏/mL, respectively. Conclusion Antibodies purified by SPA method are better than those by CAASP method, and Met monoclonal antibodies purified by SPA method can be used to prepare gold-labelled testing paper for analyzing Met residue in vegetable and drink water.
