A competitive direct enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (cdELISA) was developed for selective and rapid detection of a glycopeptide antibiotic, teicoplanin (TP). TP was conjugated to bovine serum albumin (BSA) for use as an immunogen. Repeated subcutaneous injections of 0.5 mg of the conjugate was effective in generating specific polyclonal antibody (PAb) toward TP in rabbits, as determined by cdELISA. TP-horseradish peroxidase conjugate (TP-HRP) was used as an enzyme marker. The cdELISA was developed based on a competition reaction between TP-BSA PAb and TP-HRP conjugate. The TP-BSA PAb was highly sensitive (detection limit, 0.3 ng/ml and specific toward teicoplanin, showing no cross-reactivity to other glycopeptide antibiotics including vancomycin. There were good correlations ($r^2$=0.84 and 0.76, respectively) between cdELISA and microbiological assay, and high-performance liquid chromatography. The cdELISA system developed in this work is expected to be useful not only for selective and rapid monitoring of TP but also for study of TP pharmacokinetics.

본 연구는 polymerase chanin reaction(PCR)기법과 DNA enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(DNA ELISA) 기법을 이용하여 토양내 식물병원균인 Ralstonia solanacearum를 검출하고자 하였다. 토양 시료로부터 분석에 사용될 R. solanacearum DNA를 추출하기 위하여 몇 가지 방법을 비교 평가한 결과 기존의 DNA 추출 방법에 비하여 Guanidin isothiocyanate와 Chelex-100 resin을 사용하는 방법 이 토양 내에 존재하는 다양한 중류의 반응 저해 물질과 R. solanacearum만의 고유한 PCR반응 저해물질들을 제거하는 데에 효과적이었다. R. solanacearum만을 특이적으로 검출하기 위해 fliC유전자 부위에 특이적인 몇 종의 primer들을 제작하였다. 이들 중 높은 민감도와 특이도를 나타내는 두 set의 primer RsolfliC(forward; 5-GAACGCCAACGGTGCGAACT-3 and reverse; 5-GGCGGCCTTCAGGGAGGTC-3, designed by J. $Sch\ddot{o}nfeld$ et al.)와 RS_247 (forward; 5-GGCGGTCTGTCGGCRG-3 and reverse; 5-CGGTCGCGTTGGCAAC-3, designed by this study)를 선정하여 nested PCR을 수행할 수 있도록 고안하였다. Nested PCR primer에 biotin을 표지하였고 nested PCR산물의 내부 서열과 특이적으로 교잡반응을 할 수 있는 probe를 제작하여 PCR 결과를 DNA-EIA반응으로 확인 분석할 수 있도록 하였다. Primary PCR과 nested PCR의 산물을 전기영동 상에서 확인한 결과, nested PCR이 약 $10^2$정도의 높은 민감도를 나타내었고 DNA-EIA의 경우 $10^2P{\sim}10^3$정도의 민감도를 상승시켜주는 것으로 확인되었다.

The levels of maternal immunity enhancing factor(MIEF), which is an immunomodulatory protein identified from bovine colostrum, were determined by indirect competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) for the colostrum and normal milk collected during the first two weeks of lactation. The mean concentration of MIEF in the colostrum of the first day of lactation was $109\;{\mu}g/ml$, and fell from the third day of lactation to $3{\sim}4\;{\mu}g/ml$. The molecular weight of the purified MIEF determined by reducing SDS-PAGE and TSK G2000SW column chromatography was 22,000 and 24,000 daltons, respectively, showing that MIEF is a monomeric peptide in its native form. To examine the capacity of MIEF to induce differentiation of B Lymphocytes, human tonsillar Iymphocytes were cultured in the presence of different concentrations of MIEF, and then antibody secreting cells were enumerated by enzyme-linked immunospot(ELISPOT) assay. When added to cultures of human tonsillar Lymphocytes, MIEF induced differentiation of resting B Iymphocyte to antibody secreting plasma cells as efficiently as LPS.

The viral hemorrhagic septicemia virus (VHSV) has an extensive host range, and infects farmed and wild fish inhabiting both freshwater and marine ecosystems. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) is highly useful in diagnosing viral hemorrhagic septicemia. However, ELISA shows high, non-specific background reaction with fish antibodies. In this study, we optimized the antigen and antibody concentrations used for detecting specific antibodies in VHSV-infected olive flounder to reduce non-specific binding, and improve the sensitivity of ELISA. The results suggested that OD (optical Density) values were valid when ELISA was performed with $0.1{\mu}g/well$ of virus, involving blocking with blocking buffer (Roth, Roti-Block), 1:300-1:600 dilution with flounder antisera, and 1:1000 dilution with anti-flounder IgM and HRP-conjugated goat anti-mouse IgG for detecting the VHSV antibody in flounder sera. Furthermore, 11 different VHSV strains isolated in Korea from 2012 to 2016 were used to infect the fish. The results showed no correlation between viral pathogenicity and antibody production. This research is a basic study on the application of antibody detection in the diagnosis of viral hemorrhagic septicemia in the olive flounder.

Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed for the rapid detection of Fusarium species, known as harmful fungi in food. One of the hybridoma cell lines (lB8) which produced a monoclonal antibody (Mab) specific to Fusarium extracellular polysaccharide (EPS) was screened and the Mab was produced and purified. A detection limit of the sandwich ELISA against F. moniliforme EPS was $0.001\;\mu\textrm{g}/ml$ in the standard curve. Among the 59 strains tested, most Fusarium species showed hight reactivity with Mab lB8, even when the culture broths were diluted 100,000 times. On the other hand, the other genera, except A. versicolor and Trichoderma viride, had no reactivity. When 1 to $100\;\mu\textrm{g}$ of F. moniliforme EPS was spiked into rice, potato, and mandarine orange, the average recoveries were 151%, 84%, and 94%, respectively, determined by sandwich ELISA. The correlation coefficients between the EPS levels determined by sandwich ELISA and the dry mycelial weight of the liquid culture of F. moniliforme, as well as between the EPS and colony forming unit in solid culture of potato, were 0.97 and 0.91, respectively.

To develop an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for detecting mold, we produced anti-mold polyclonal antibodies by immunizing extracellular polysaccharide (EPS) of Aspergillus flavus or Penicillium citrinum in rabbits subcutaneously. Using the purified antibody (Ab) and Ab-HRP conjugate, a sandwich ELISA for EPS was established. The standard curve of the ELISA showed the detection limit for P citrinum EPS to be $0.003{\;}\mu\textrm{g}/ml$. The cross-reactivities of the anti-P citrinum EPS Ab toward components of P citrinum such as EPS, liquid, and solid culture mycelium were 100, 10.5, and 0.58%, respectively, and those toward components of A. flavus such as EPS, liquid and solid culture mycelium, and spore were 300, 0.67, 0.29, and 0%, respectively. When the reactivities toward culture broths of 59 mold strains were tested by the sandwich ELISA, most of the Aspergillus (16 of 18) and Penicillium (14 of 16) strains along with one of the two Cladosporium strains gave positive signals in the culture broths even when diluted 1,000 fold, while the rest of species such as Fusarium, Absidia, Alternaria, and Candida gave negative signals. When the water extracts of 30 corn samples were analyzed by the sandwich ELISA, the EPS in the com could be detected in the concentration range of $0.1-1.6{\;}\mu\textrm{g}/g$.

In order to develop an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for zearalenone (ZEA) in corn, we produced antisera by immunizing rabbits with ZEA-6'-carboxymethyloxime-BSA, purified polyclonal anti ZEA antibodies, and subsequently established a competitive indirect ELISA. The antibodies showed low cross-reactivity of 9.6~1.4% against ZEA analogues such as $\alpha$-zearalenol, $\beta$-zearalenol, $\alpha$-zearalanol, and $\beta$-zearalanol. From the standard curve of the ELISA for ZEA in corn, the detection range was found to be 0.3~1, 000 ng/ml. When artificially contaminated corns were assayed by the ELISA, the average recovery of ZEA spiked to 30~1, 000 ng/g was 109% (96~123%), although that of ZEA spiked to 10 ng/g was somewhat high (258%). The average coefficient of variation (CV) of the recovery was 18.0% (0.9~28.3%). When 9 corn samples naturally contaminated were assayed 3 times, the average CV of the determinitions was 27.7% (9.3~52.4%). Therefore, the ELISA was elucidated to be a practical tool for the detection of ZEA of 30 ng/g and more from corn.

The monoclonal antibody to chloramphenicol(CAP) was produced to develop an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) for residual CAP. An immunogen(CAP-BSA) was prepared by immunogen, antibody titer was measured by indirect ELISA. Spleen cells form the immunized mouse were fused with SP2/OAg14 myeloma cells. Among hybridomas selected in HAT media, 6 clones shown high antibody titer to CAP were subjected to cloning by limit dilution, and all of the monoclonal antibodies(MCA1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7 and 9) produced by each clone were identified as IgG1 by ELISA isotyping analysis. Competitive ELISA condition was established by using the purified monoclonal antibody MCA1 as primary antibody and CAP-HSA conjugate as coating antigen. Standard curve of CAP(n=28) showed that the lowest detection limit of CAP is 20ng/ml level. The cross-reactivities of the 6 monoclonal antibodies showed that CAP sodium succinate. CAP base, P-nitrophenol, and p-nitrobenzyl alcohol were 89∼178, 0.050∼2.237, 0.056∼0.794 and 0.013∼7.939%, respectively. No cross-reactivities were observed with phenylalanine, tyrosine, glutamine, thiamphenicol, neomycin, streptomycin, gentamicin, sulfamethazine, sulfathiazole, chlortetracycline and p-aminobenzoic acid.
