Abstract
Triclosan (TCS), triclocarban (TCC), and chlorophene (CP) are widely used antimicrobial agents with persistent environmental residues, posing potential ecological and health risks. Thus, developing a sensitive, rapid on-site screening method is highly significant. In this study, computer simulation was first employed to screen the haptens of TCS, TCC and CP to prepare highly specific and high affinity monoclonal antibodies with half-maximal inhibitory concentrations of 1.044, 0.964, and 1.704 ng/mL, respectively. Based on this, a multi-immunochromatography assay (MICA) was established to simultaneously and rapidly detect TCS, TCC, and CP in lake water, wastewater and sludge, with calculated limits of detection of 1.138, 1.090, and 2.525 μg/kg in lake water; 1.147, 1.093, and 2.511 μg/kg in wastewater; and 1.668, 1.493, and 3.106 μg/kg in sludge, respectively. Analysis of real samples confirmed strong consistency between MICA and HPLC-MS/MS results, with high accuracy, stability, and reliability, supporting its application for on-site screening of large batches of samples.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Hazardous Materials serves as a global platform for promoting cutting-edge research in the field of Environmental Science and Engineering. Our publication features a wide range of articles, including full-length research papers, review articles, and perspectives, with the aim of enhancing our understanding of the dangers and risks associated with various materials concerning public health and the environment. It is important to note that the term "environmental contaminants" refers specifically to substances that pose hazardous effects through contamination, while excluding those that do not have such impacts on the environment or human health. Moreover, we emphasize the distinction between wastes and hazardous materials in order to provide further clarity on the scope of the journal. We have a keen interest in exploring specific compounds and microbial agents that have adverse effects on the environment.
