Abstract

2

Salbutamol (SAL) and ractopamine (RAC) have been illegally used to promote

3

protein synthesis and to increase the feed conversion rate in livestock. However, the

4

residues of SAL and RAC could cause potential hazards for human health. The

5

Ministry of Agriculture of China banned the use of SAL and RAC as growth

6

promoters. In this paper, we enclosed detail information on developing a rapid and

7

sensitive gel-based immunoassay for on-site screening SAL and RAC residues in pork.

8

The detection time was shortened to 20 min. The limits of detection were 0.5 μg/kg

9

for SAL and RAC by visual detection, while, the quantitative gel-based immunoassay

10

enabled the detection of SAL (0.051 μg/kg) and RAC (0.020 μg/kg) in spiked pork

11

samples. The gel-based immunoassay showed promise as a multiplexed immunoassay

12

for on-site surveilling of SAL and RAC residues in pork.

1. Introduction

15

β-Agonists, a class of phenylethanolamine compounds, are widely used for the

16

treatment of respiratory diseases. Among them, salbutamol (SAL) and ractopamine

17

(RAC) are two typical representatives, and they are originally used as tocolytics,

18

bronchodilators, and heart tonics in human and veterinary medicine.

19

years, β-agonists have been illegally used to promote protein synthesis and to increase

20

the feed conversion rate in animal husbandry.

21

chemicals could pose potential hazard on human health, such as food poisoning,

22

cardiovascular and central nervous diseases. 6-8 Therefore, the Ministry of Agriculture

23

of China and some other countries banned the use of β-agonist as growth promoters in

24

animal husbandary. 9

However, the residues of these

25

Because these compounds could enhance the growth rates and feed efficiency,

26

β-agonists were still illegally used in food-animal producing. Thus, it is urgent to

27

develop rapid and sensitive analytical methods for screening of trace residues for

28

surveillance. 10 During the last two decades, some analytical methods were developed

29

for the analysis of β-agonists residues in various food matrices. Of all, GC-MS,

30

LC-MS and LC-MS/MS are widely used for the determination of SAL and RAC

31

residues.

32

instruments,

33

procedures. Hence, they are not suitable for on-site screening purpose.

34

Immunoassays are widely used as screening method in food safety, environmental

35

monitoring and clinic diagnosing. Recently, enzyme linked immunosorbent assay

36

(ELISA), lateral-flow tests, surface plasmon resonance sensors and other analytical

37

methods were developed for rapid screening of veterinary drug residues.

38

However, lateral-flow tests have low sensitivity; ELISA is time-consuming, and SPR

39

needs special equipment. 23, 24 Thus, a rapid and sensitive analytical method is needed

40

for screening purpose.

3, 9, 18-22

41

In this study, a rapid and sensitive non-instrumental method was developed for

42

simultaneous detection of SAL and RAC residues. The principle of gel-based

43

immunoassay was similar to traditional ELISAs.

44

the specific combination of antigen and antibody reacted. After the addition of

45

chromogenic substrate, a blue color development was visible. The cut-off value was

46

defined as the concentration of target analyte at which there was no color

47

development. Furthermore, the colour intensity of the color development was

48

evaluated to make a quantitative detection. To our knowledge, it is the first time that a

49

qualitative and quantitative gel-based immunoassay was developed for simultaneously

50

screening two kinds of β-agonists residues.

51

2. Materials and methods

52

Reagents and materials

25

Gel was used as a carrier where

53

SAL and RAC standards were purchased from China Institutes for Food and

54

Drug Control (Beijing, China). Anti-SAL antibody, anti-RAC antibody, SAL-HRP and

55

RAC-HRP conjugates were obtained from Beijing WDWK Biotechnology Co., Ltd

56

(Beijing, China). CNBr-activited sepharose 4B was purchased from GE Healthcare 4

ACS Paragon Plus Environment

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry

57

(New Jersey, USA). Goat anti-mouse IgG were purchased from Jackson

58

Immuno-Research Inc. (Pennsylvania, USA). Bond Elut SPE cartridges (1 mL) and

59

polyethylene frits were purchased from Agilent Technologies (California, USA).

60

Solutions and buffers

61

Phosphate-buffered saline (PBS, 0.01 M, pH 7.4), chromogenic substrate (0.1%

62

TMB, H2O2 in 0.05 M citrate buffer, pH 4.5), coupling buffer (NaHCO3 buffer

63

containing 0.5 M NaCl, pH 8.3), blocking buffer (coupling buffer containing 0.2 M of

64

glycine, pH 8.0) and acetate buffer (pH 4.0, containing 0.5 M NaCl) were prepared in

65

this study.

66

Preparation of the gels

67

Gel coupled with anti-mouse IgG (AM-CG) was carried out according to the

68

instruction of the manufacturer and previous researches. 23 The anti-SAL antibody and

69

anti-RAC antibody were immobilized onto the gel to prepare the anti-SAL gel and

70

anti-RAC gel. Preparation of blocked gel (BG, gel coupled with glycine) was similar

71

with the AM-CG that described above, by using glycine to block the active site of the

72

coupled gels. The prepared gel was suspended in PBS containing 0.03% Proclin 300,

73

and stored at 4 °C before use.

74

Gel-based immunoassay

75

The first frit was placed on the bottom at the 1 mL Bond Elut Reservoir, and 200

76

μL of anti-RAC gel was added to the column. The second frit was used to cover the

77

RAC test-layer, and the third frit was added to the column to produce an air gap layer

78

(0.3 cm). Then, 200 μL of anti-SAL gel was added to the column above the third frit, 5

ACS Paragon Plus Environment

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry

79

and the fourth frit was used to cover the SAL test-layer. The prepared columns were

80

stored at 4 °C until use.

81

Sample treatment and trace residues analysis

82

The pork samples were purchased from outlet of Beijing, and all samples were

83

verified as free of SAL and RAC using LC-MS/MS. 8 Then, 1 g of pork sample was

84

extracted using 3 mL of trichloroacetic acid. After centrifugation, the pH of the

85

extracting solution was adjusted to pH 7.0 using 1 M NaOH. Then, about 3 mL of the

86

extracting solutions were added to the test column from the inlet. The sample extracts

87

should pass through the column at the speed of 1 drop per second. Then, 200 μL of

88

diluted RAC-HRP and SAL-HRP conjugates solution was added to the test layer, and

89

incubated for 6 min. Then, 6 mL of PBST-NaCl solution was added in order to

90

remove the unbound conjugates. After adding 300 μL of the chromogenic substrate,

91

the visual color was observed after incubation for 5 min.

92

Quantitative interpretation and assay validation

93

The qualitative gel-based immunoassay could only provide a rough result with

94

naked eyes, which resulted in a low sensitivity. In order to improve its sensitivity, the

95

images of the gel-based immunoassays were record and were saved in JPG format,

96

and the colour intensity of test layers were evaluated by “Adobe Photoshop CS5”, and

97

values of saturation (parameter S, HSB mode) were obtained for quantitative analysis.

method. 8 Blank pork samples spiked with SAL and RAC standards were analyzed by

102

both the quantitative gel-based immunoassay and the well-established LC-MS/MS

103

method which detection limits for SAL and RAC were 0.04 μg/kg and 0.10 μg/kg,

104

respectively. Correlation of the two methods was compared, and further validation

105

was carried out according to Commission Decision 2002/657/EC.

106

3 Results and discussion

107

Principle of the gel-based immunoassay

108

The principle of the gel-based immunoassay was similar with traditional ELISAs.

109

While, the gel-based immunoassay used sepharose 4B gels as carrier for immobilizing

110

antibody. There were two test layers and one air gap layer in the developed

111

immunoassay. For test layer, CNBr-activated sepharose 4B bead was utilized as

112

carrier media to immobilize anti-SAL and anti-RAC antibodies. Then target analytes

113

in samples would compete with HRP-analyte conjugates to combine with antibody in

114

the test layer. After the addition of chromogenic substrate and the color development,

115

the results can be observed by naked eyes. The negative results would present a

116

visible blue color on the respective test layers, while the positive results presented no

117

or negligible color. The cut-off value was defined as the lowest concentration of

118

anlayte which results in no color development. Compared with traditional

119

immunoassays, the gel-based immunoassays have a larger loading volume, which

120

could greatly improve the sensitivity.

121

Optimization of gel-based immunoassay 7

ACS Paragon Plus Environment

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry

122

Compared with traditional immunoassays, the non-specific adsorption effects

123

could greatly affect the sensitivity of the gel-based immunoassay. In this study, the

124

concentration of the antibodies and HRP-analyte conjugates were optimized first.

125

Dilutions of SAL-HRP ranged from 1:8000 to 1:40000 in 0.01 M PBS (pH 7.4), while,

126

dilutions of anti-SAL antibody ranged from 1:4000 to 1:20000 were used for

127

optimization. In consideration of color development and non-specific adsorption

128

effect, SAL-HRP dilution at 1:8000 and anti-SAL antibody dilution at 1:10000 were

129

chosen. The optimization of RAC test-layer was similar to the SAL test-layer, and the

130

RAC-HRP dilution at 1:20000 and anti-RAC antibody dilution at 1:10000 were

131

chosen as optimal. If the concentrations of antibody and HRP tracer are higher than

132

the selective level, non-specific adsorption’s interference can influence on the visual

133

color development results, and lower concentrations of antibody and HRP tracer may

134

lead to weak color development.

135

Washing buffer is also important for eliminating nonspecific adsorption.

136

Different volumes (2, 4, 6 and 8 mL) and different ionic strength (NaCl concentration

137

at 0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.5, 1.0 M in washing buffer) were investigated. Increasing both of the

138

volume and ionic strength under a certain level could greatly minimize the

139

non-specific adsorption effect. The results revealed that 6 mL of the washing buffer

140

(NaCl concentration was 0.5 M) could effectively decrease the nonspecific adsorption

141

to insignificant levels.

142

In order to simultaneously screen two analytes, the reaction time (incubation

143

time of HRP conjugates and detection time of chromogenic substrate) should be 8

ACS Paragon Plus Environment

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry

144

optimized for both test layers. As shown in Figure 1A, the parameter S (saturation, %)

145

value could increase when prolong the incubation time with HRP conjugates. The

146

non-specific adsorption effect appeared when the incubation time was over 6 min.

147

Thus, 6 min was chosen as optimal for incubation time of HRP conjugates. The

148

optimization procedure of detection time was similar to the optimization procedure of

149

incubation time. As shown in Figure 1B, 5 min was chosen as optimal detection time

150

in consideration of the non-specific adsorption effect and the color development

151

intensity.

152

Assay specificity

153

β-Agonists are a class of phenylethanolamine compounds with synthetic

154

chemical structure. The specificity of the gel-based immunoassay was evaluated by

155

determining the cross-reactivity using other β-agonists. In this study, clenbuterol

156

(CLE), cimaterol, terbutaline, zipaterol, clorprenaline, brobuterol and bambuterol

157

were tested. There was no elimination of the color intensity in the test layers for the

158

other β-agonists at a high concentration (100 ng/mL), which indicated that the

159

gel-based immunoassay is high specific for detecting SAL and RAC residues (Figure

160

2).

161

Sample preparation and trace residues analysis

162

The complex food matrix effect could greatly influent the immunoassays. Due to

163

the high sample loading capacity, sample matrix effect could be reduced greatly using

164

a comparatively simple preparation procedure. The results of the gel-based

165

immunoassay in standard solution were shown in Figure 3A. The color of the test 9

166

layers fades when increasing analyte concentration in standard solution. When the

167

concentration was higher than the cut-off level (defined as qualitative LODs), it could

168

occupy enough binding sites of antibodies, and lead to the color disappeared. From

169

the results of Figure 3A, the qualitative LODs were 0.5 μg/kg for SAL and RAC,

170

respectively. Spiked pork samples were prepared and tested by the developed

171

gel-based immunoassays. As shown in Figure 3B, the cut-off values were 0.5 μg/kg

172

for screening of SAL and RAC residues in pork, and these results indicated that the

173

matrix effects showed negligible effects on the assay sensitivity.

174

Probabilities of positive and negative results were tested to prevent false negative

175

results due to matrix interferences. In this study, 50 blank samples and 50 spiked

176

samples (spiked with SAL and RAC at 0.5 μg/kg) were tested by the developed

177

gel-based immunoassays. As summarized in Table 1, the false positive and false

178

negative rates were 8% and 4% for SAL residue analysis, while the results were 2%

179

and 4% for RAC residue analysis, which indicated the permission of this method to be

180

used in the detection of these two analytes.

181

Quantitative analysis and assay validation

182

More intuitive results could be obtained by quantifying the colour intensity of the

183

test layers in Figure 3A. According to previous research, the colour intensity was

184

obtained from the images, and the results were tested for three times and the average

185

value and standard deviation was calculated. B/B0 ratio was selected to express the

186

competitive inhibition curve where B0 and B were the parameter S values obtained

187

from binding at zero and certain concentrations of standards. A four parameter logistic 10

ACS Paragon Plus Environment

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry

Page 12 of 34

188

equation was used to fit the immunoassay data. The calibration curve and analytical

189

performance were shown in Figure 4. Comparing with observed by naked eye, it has

190

higher resolution to decide the cut-off value. The calculated LODs of SAL and RAC

191

were 0.051 μg/kg and 0.020 μg/kg, respectively. The color quantization plays an

192

important role for improving the sensitivity, which were about 10 to 20 times better

193

than qualitative gel-based immunoassays.

194

To evaluate the accuracy and precision of the quantitative gel-based

195

immunoassay, an LC-MS/MS method was used as a reference method for comparison.

196

As shown in Table 2, both methods had satisfactory recoveries and the coefficient of

197

variations (CVs). The average recoveries of SAL and RAC of the gel-based

198

immunoassay were in the range of 78-109%, and CV was in the range of 8.5-16.7%.

199

As shown in Figure 5, the linear regression of the two methods was

200

y=0.7231x+0.1196 with the R2 of 0.9439 for SAL residue analysis, and

201

y=0.8566x+0.0311 with the R2 of 0.9538 for RAC residue analysis. These results

202

indicated that the correlation of the two methods was satisfying, and the described

203

gel-based assay was proved to be rapid, sensitive and precise for screening of SAL

204

and RAC residues in pork.

205

Comparison with other multiplexed immunoassays

206

Several immunoassays have been developed for multi-residue detection of

207

-agonists. Zuo et al. established a hapten microarray for simultaneous determination

208

of SAL, RAC and CLE in pig urine, which obtained the detection limits for SAL and

209

RAC

were

0.01

g/L

and

0.5

g/L

respectively.

212

8.5 pg/mL for RAC. Han et al. also developed a time-resolved chemiluminescence

213

with lateral flow immunoassays, while the sensitivity was lower in the developed

of SAL and RAC residues in pork samples, which capable of sifting a minimum of 0.5

225

g/kg of both SAL and RAC by naked eye, 0.051 g/kg of SAL and 0.020 g/kg of

226

227

revealed the suitability of this assay as a tool for fast, sensitive, cost-effective and

228
