Okadaic Acid Detection through a Rapid and Sensitive Amplified Luminescent Proximity Homogeneous Assay.

ABSTRACT: Okadaic acid (OA), a marine biotoxin produced by microalgae, poses a significant threat to mariculture, seafood safety, and human health. The establishment of a novel, highly sensitive detection method for OA would have significant practical and scientific implications. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to develop an innovative approach for OA detection. A competitive amplified luminescent proximity homogeneous assay (AlphaLISA) was developed using the principle of specific antigen-antibody binding based on the energy transfer between chemiluminescent microspheres. The method was non-washable, sensitive, and rapid, which could detect 2 × 10^-2-200 ng/mL of OA within 15 min, and the detection limit was 4.55 × 10^-3 ng/mL. The average intra- and inter-assay coefficients of variation were 2.54% and 6.26%, respectively. Detection of the actual sample results exhibited a good correlation with high-performance liquid chromatography. In conclusion, a simple, rapid, sensitive, and accurate AlphaLISA method was established for detecting OA and is expected to significantly contribute to marine biotoxin research.

Project description:Infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) is a coronavirus responsible for major health problems in the poultry industry. New virus strains continue to appear, causing large economic losses. To develop a rapid and accurate new quantitative assay for diagnosis of the virus without DNA extraction, we selected highly specific single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) aptamers with a high affinity to IBV, using the systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment (SELEX) technology for aptamer screening, followed by high-throughput sequencing technology. Two of these aptamers, AptIBV5 and AptIBV2, were used to establish homogenous and solid-phase proximity ligation assays (PLAs). The developed assays were evaluated for their sensitivity and specificity using collected field samples and then compared to the newly developed sandwich enzyme-linked aptamer assay (ELAA) and reverse transcription-quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR), as the gold-standard method. The solid-phase PLA showed a lower limit of detection and a broader dynamic range than the two other assays. The developed technique may serve as an alternative assay for the diagnosis of IBV, with the potential to be extended to the detection of other important animal or human viruses. IMPORTANCE Infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) causes high morbidity and mortality and large economic losses in the poultry industry. The virus has the ability to genetically mutate into new IBV strains, causing devastating disease and outbreaks. To better monitor the emergence of this virus, the development of a rapid and highly sensitive diagnostic method should be implemented. For this, we generated aptamers with high affinity and specificity to the IBV in an ssDNA library. Using two high-affinity aptamers, we developed a sandwich ELAA and a very sensitive aptamer-based proximity ligation assay (PLA). The new assay showed high sensitivity and specificity and was used to detect IBV in farm samples. The PLA was compared to the newly developed sandwich ELAA and qRT-PCR, as the gold-standard technique.
