Establishment of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for aristolochic acid.

In recent years, the nephrotoxicity and carcinogenicity of aristolochic acid have attracted worldwide attention, and the traditional Chinese medicine containing this ingredient has been banned in many places, affecting the TCM industry. To meet this challenge, researchers have developed various detection methods, such as high-performance liquid chromatography, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and thin-layer chromatography. A rapid detection method must therefore be developed to ensure safety. A polyclonal antibody capable of recognizing aristolochic acid was prepared, and an indirect competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ic-ELISA) was established to detect the amount of aristolochic acid in the sample to be measured. Methods Using 1-(4-chlorophenyl) cyclobutylamine as a hapten, immunogens and coating antigens were obtained by coupling with bovine serum albumin (BSA) and chicken ovalbumin (OVA) using the active ester method. UV scanning confirmed the successful coupling of the conjugate, and New Zealand white rabbits were immunized. The obtained antibody serum was screened for the best antibody by ic-ELISA detection. Use the chessboard method to determine three optimal combinations of original coating concentration and antibody dilution ratio, establish a standard curve for each combination to obtain the best combination, and establish a rapid detection method. Finally, the standard aristolochic acid A was added to the purchased apple vinegar and canned coffee for recycling experiments to verify the detection method.By changing the antigen antibody concentration, the antibody showed the highest sensitivity to aristolochic acid standard at the original coating, 1000-fold dilution, IC
