Competitive indirect enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (Ci-ELISA) was used to obtain the preliminary data for the detection of irradiated beef. Ci-ELISA was individually formatted with polyclonal antibodies produced from 2 kinds of bovine proteins, myosin and bovine serum albumin (BSA). Beef round, loin and tender loin were vacuum-packaged and subdivided into 3 groups of 1) irradiation; 2) irradiation and chilled at 4$^{\circ}C$ for 7 day; 3) irradiation and frozen at 2$0^{\circ}C$ for 2 months to observe the changes under different storage and/or distribution conditions. Irradiation was performed at 3, 5 and 7 kGy. Protein solutions prepared from the sample were tested by formatted Ci-ELISA. Detected concentrations of myosin and BSA decreased with the increased irradiation dose in all samples with different reduction rates. Myosin was more susceptible to freezing than BSA. Samples irradiated at 5 kGy or above could be differentiated from non-irradiated ones by Ci-ELISA. These results indicate that immunological assay can be used as a detection method for irradiated beef.

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.

Coxiella burnetii (C burnetii) is the causative agent of Q fever in animal and human. The distribution of the disease has been documented around world. In this study we developed the competitive enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(cELISA) and compared it with indirect immunofluorescent assay(IFA). A monoclonal antibody(Mab) against C burnetii and a peroxidase-conjugated anti-mouse IgM were used as an indicator system competing against antibody in animal serum or as an indicater of the absence of antibody. Sera were considered antibody positive when the percentage inhibition index(PI index) is upper than 30. PI index is calculated as 100-[sample OD/Mab OD)${\times}100$]. Among 162 bovine serum samples, 23 samples were antibody positive both in cELISA and IFA. And 156 samples showed same results. From goat with experimentally induced infection with C burnetii the antibody was detected 20 days early in cELISA compared to IFA. On the basis of present findings, it was demonstrated that cELISA is a reliable diagnostic method for The detection of specific antibodies against C burnetii infection.

The Hen's egg is widely used in many processed foods as an ingredient and is one of the most prevalent food allergens in children. To detect egg proteins in processed foods, we developed a competitive indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ciELISA) using an anti-ovomucoid (OM) antibody, which was produced by immunization of rabbits with OM, the most heat-stable component of the egg proteins. The detection limit of this quantitative assay system was 30 ng/mL. Cross-reactivity of the anti-OM antibody toward OM, ovalbumin, skim milk, casein, whey protein isolate, and isolated soy protein was 100, 0.4, 0.2, 0.04, 0, and 0%, respectively. In the spike test of egg white powder in milk replacer, commercial sausage, and in-house sausage, the assay recoveries ($mean{\pm}SD$) were $129{\pm}13.7%$, $73.9{\pm}12.5%$, and $65.5{\pm}13.6%$, respectively. When egg white in a commercial crab meat analog and sausage was determined by ciELISA, the assay recovery was found to be 108% and 127%, respectively. The combined results of this study indicate that this novel ciELISA for OM detection could be applied for the quantification of hen's egg proteins in processed foods.

Brucellosis is a serious zoonosis, recognized worldwide. It primarily affects animals, which act as reservoirs for human infection as well as being of economic significance to the agri-food industry. Bangladesh has been reported as an endemic area for brucellosis. So a cross sectional study was conducted to determine the seroprevalence and potential risk factors of brucellosis in cattle in Dinajpur and Mymensingh districts of Bangladesh. A total of 182 cattle were examined by Rose Bengal Plate Test (RBPT) between September 2008 and October 2009. Then Positive, doubtful, and negative samples were further confirmed with slow agglutination test (SAT) and both indirect and competitive enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (iELISA and cELISA). A questionnaire was used to collect epidemiological information of the animals. The overall animal-level prevalence was 3.30%. Brucellosis seroprevalence was higher (4.76% by cELISA) in cattle above 48 months than those under 48 months. Female showed higher seroprevalence (10.67%) than male (6.25%). Higher seroprevalence was also found in cattle bred naturally (20.0%) than artificially (8.77%) and cattle that aborted or with previous abortion record (22.22%) showed higher seroprevalence than non-aborted (7.69%). The sensitivity of RBT and SAT was found 100% as compared to cELISA standard test, whereas specificity of RBT (95.35%) was higher than that of SAT (94.32%).

Monoclonal antibodies have been generated against a generic hapten, ο,ο-diethyl ο-(5-carboxy-2-fluorophenyl) phosphorothioate, for the determination of organophosphorus (OP) pesticides in a class-specific manner. In an indirect competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) format, employing a heterologous coating antigen, these monoclonal antibodies showed desirable properties for use in the class-specific determination, i.e., broad specificity and high sensitivity. The IC50 values of four commonly used ο,ο-diethyl OP pesticides were fairly uniform ranging from 0.1 to 0.3 ㎛/mL. The IC50 values of three ο,ο-dimethyl derivatives were between 0.3 and 1.4 ㎛/mL. These values, together with the limits of detection (LOD), were better, in terms of the specificity and sensitivity, compared with the values obtained previously with polyclonal antibodies.

우리 나라에 중요한 식품의 원료인 메주에 대한 균독소($Aflatoxin\;B_1$와 Ochratoxin A) 생성 여부를 인위적인 혹은 자연적인 환경에서 조사하였다. 채집된 메주에서 균을 분리하여 접종함으로, 인위적인 환경인 독소생성 배지와 콩을 이용한 배지를 이용하여 균독소 생성을 관찰하였다. 조선 전통메주에서 채집된 메주 균인 불완전 진균들은 몇 몇 균이 독소를 생성하였으나, 멸균된 날 콩에는 다만 $2{\sim}3$개의 분리균들이 $Aflatoxin\;B_1$와 Ochratoxin A를 분비하였다. 그러나, 언급된 두 개의 균독소가 함께 생성하는 분리균은 관찰되지 않았다. 그러나, 조선 전통메주에서는 어떤 채집된 메주에서도 위의 균독소가 $0.01{\sim}100\;ng$ 범위에서 관찰되지 않았다. 이러한 결과로 메주 제조에 관련된 메주 균에서 털곰팡이(Mucor species)가 메주 제조에 초기에 작용한 균으로 전통 메주의 발효와 균독소 생성과 관계에서 중요한 것으로 사료된다.

3,3',4,4'-Tetrachlorobiphenyl (IUPAC PCB77) is one of seven indicative polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in the surface sediments. The current study presents a novel polyclonal antibody for the determination of the PCB77 using indirect competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Under optimum conditions, PCB77 was determined within the concentration range of 0.01-100 ${\mu}g\;L^{-1}$, with a detection limit of 0.057 ${\mu}g\;L^{-1}$. The assays were tested for their cross-reactivity profiles using 3 selected congeners and 4 Aroclor products. The assays were highly specific for coplanar PCB congeners, but less specific for Aroclor1248. The spiked recoveries from five sediment samples were 86%-114% for PCB77 from ELISA, which were satisfactory. The current study demonstrated that the developed antiserum and immunoassay procedure can be used to detect PCB77 in environmental samples. The results of the sediment analysis were confirmed by conventional GC/ECD.

가열 처리된 우육, 돈육, 계육, 양육과 염소육과의 종판별을 위한 효소면역측정법(ELISA)을 확립하기 위하여 염소육을 $98^{\circ}C$에서 15분간 열처리해서 추출액을 분리하였다. 열에 안정한 주요 단백질(TS)은 분자량이 36과 38kDa이었고 두 분자량대의 단백질의 pI값은 4.5로 확인되었으며 면역원으로 사용하기 위해 이온교환 (DEAE-Sephadex A-50)과 겔 여과(Sephadex G-75) 크로마토그래피로 정제하였다. 분리, 정제된 TS단백질을 토끼에 면역하여 염소육에 대해 특이성을 갖는 항체를 생산하고 항TS 항체를 이용하여 간접경합 ELISA를 확립하였다. 항TS 항체는 가열 처리된 계육, 우육, 돈육, 양육과는 반응성이 전혀 없었고 동일하게 처리된 염소육과 지표단백질인 TS에만 반응성을 보였다. 따라서, 본 연구에서 확립한 간접경합 효소면역측정법은 가열 처리된 육류 중 염소육 판별에 웅용 가능함을 시사하였다.
