Abstract
Flumequine (Flu) is a fluoroquinolone veterinary antibiotic, which is easy to accumulate in animals, and Flu residues may cause a latent risk to human physiological health. In this study, a high-affinity monoclonal antibody (2.09 × 109 M-1) to specifically recognize Flu (anti-Flu mAb) was prepared, and then the lateral flow immunochromatographic strips (LFIS) with excellent sensitivity and specificity were developed by combining mAbs with nanoparticles. The linear detection ranges of LFIS based on gold particles (AuNP-LFIS) and gold nanoflowers (AuNF-LFIS) were 1.95-250 ng/mL and 0.39-100 ng/mL, respectively, and two types of LFIS showed high sensitivity and accuracy in actual sample detection. It is noteworthy that the AuNF-LFIS exhibited a higher sensitivity compared to that of the AuNP-LFIS. The LFIS developed in this study were considered to have great application potential in monitoring food safety because of its superiorities including simple operation, high sensitivity, prompted speed and good specificity.
期刊介绍:
Food Chemistry: X, one of three Open Access companion journals to Food Chemistry, follows the same aims, scope, and peer-review process. It focuses on papers advancing food and biochemistry or analytical methods, prioritizing research novelty. Manuscript evaluation considers novelty, scientific rigor, field advancement, and reader interest. Excluded are studies on food molecular sciences or disease cure/prevention. Topics include food component chemistry, bioactives, processing effects, additives, contaminants, and analytical methods. The journal welcome Analytical Papers addressing food microbiology, sensory aspects, and more, emphasizing new methods with robust validation and applicability to diverse foods or regions.
