ZrO₂@C-based colorimetric/photothermal dual-mode immunosensor coupled with a novel monoclonal antibody for quantification of Aspergillus ochraceus biomass.

Aspergillus ochraceus contaminates agricultural products and produces nephrotoxic, carcinogenic ochratoxin A (OTA), posing severe food safety hazards. A dual-signal lateral flow immunochromatographic assay (dLFIA) based on ZrO₂@C nanoprobes was established for quantitative detection of A. ochraceus biomass. A novel monoclonal antibody (mAb 4B4) was prepared as the capture antibody to immobilize A. ochraceus mycelial lysate antigen on the test line, and a rabbit polyclonal antibody (pAb G2801) as the detection antibody to modify ZrO₂@C composites (synthesized via UiO-66 pyrolysis) into 200 nm colorimetric/photothermal nanoprobes. This dLFIA achieved limits of detection of 0.164 μg/mL (colorimetric) and 0.517 μg/mL (photothermal). This efficient and reliable method allows quantitative analysis of A. ochraceus biomass, which is suitable for routine monitoring of fungal contamination in agro-food matrices.

Tyrosine kinase inhibitors: a clinical perspective.

Cancer treatment has so far been restricted to cytotoxic and hormonal agents. These have been of limited value in their efficacy and their toxicity profile. A new era of targeted therapies is rapidly evolving. A key target being actively pursued is the receptor tyrosine kinase. Several compounds that inhibit this target are in preclinical and clinical development. These compounds broadly fall into two categories: monoclonal antibodies and small-molecule inhibitors. The common targets are epidermal growth factor receptor, Bcr-Abl tyrosine kinase, vascular endothelial growth factor, fibroblast growth factor receptor, and platelet-derived growth factor. Two of these compounds, trastuzumab and imatinib mesylate, have been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for use in specific indications. Other uses are being tested, such as imatinib for gastrointestinal stromal tumor. These compounds will alter cancer care as adjuncts to currently available treatment options.

Colloidal gold-based immunochromatographic assay for detection of ricin.

A rapid immunochromatographic assay was developed to detect ricin. The assay was based on the sandwich format using monoclonal antibodies (Mabs) of two distinct specificities. One anti-ricin B chain Mab (1G7) was immobilized to a defined detection zone on a porous nitrocellulose membrane, while the other anti-ricin A chain Mab (5E11) was conjugated to colloidal gold particles which served as a detection reagent. The ricin-containing sample was added to the membrane and allowed to react with Mab (5E11)-coated particles. The mixture was then passed along the porous membrane by capillary action past the Mab (1G7) in the detection zone, which will bind the particles that had ricin bound to their surface, giving a red color within this detection zone with an intensity proportional to ricin concentration. In the absence of ricin, no immunogold was bound to the solid-phase antibody. With this method, 50 ng/ml of ricin was detected in less than 10 min. The assay sensitivity can be increased by silver enhancement to 100 pg/ml.
