OBJECTIVETo develop a more reliable and stable method for determining monoclonal antibody (mAb) affinity constant based on competitive antibody/antigen binding.
METHODSThe Kd value was calculated based on the relationship between the binding proportion of the antigen and the original concentration of the mAb that competed for the binding site of the antigen.
RESULTSThe Kd values measured with this improved method under two different conditions were 2.61x10(-12) mol/L and 2.39x10(-12) mol/L, and those with Friguent method in these two conditions were 5.57x10(-10) mol/L and 1.41x10(-10) mol/L, respectively.
CONCLUSIONCompared with Friguent method, the Kd values measured with this improved method are closer to the actual value, and the measurement results under different experiment conditions are more stable.

This study was undertaken to purify cystic fluid (CF) antigen of Taenia solium metacestodes by affinity chromatography using specific monoclonal antibody (McAb) and to characterize the antigenicity of the purified antigen. The hybridoma cell lines, prepared by fusion between mouse plasmacytoma and spleen cells from BALB/c mice immunized with CF, secrected antibodies reacting to various helminthic antigens. Majority of cell lines reacted to CF only but some also reacted to parenchymal antigen of T. solium metacestodes, adult T. saginata, sparganum, hydatid cystic fluid, Paragonimus westermani and Clonorchis sinensis, either in combination with CF, other antigens or independently. Cloned cells derived from monoclonal lines also produced antibodies reacting either to CF only or to other helminthes in combination or independently. These results indicated that CF of T. solium metacestodes contained proteins which possessed antigenic determinants not only specific to CF but also cross reactive with the afore-mentioned helminthes. CF of T. solium metacestodes was purified by affinity chromatography using the McAb which reacted to CF and parenchymal antigens. The affinity-purified antigen(A-Ag) and unbound pool(U-Ag) were separated. A-Ag showed 2 protein bands by disc-PAGE whereas CF exhibited 6 bands and U-Ag consisted of all bands CF had. The diagnostic significance of A-Ag was evaluated by ELISA in human neurocysticercosis and other helminthic and neurologic diseases. By A-Ag, the levels of the specific IgG antibody, as shown by absorbance in sera and CSF, were lower than those of CF and U-Ag. Accordingly, the sensitiviy was about 70 % of CF and U-Ag. However, the nonspecific positive reactions to CF and U-Ag, observed in sparganosis, T. saginata infection and paragonimiasis did not occur when A-Ag was used. These results indicated that the affinity-purified A-Ag had the higher specificity but the lower sensitivity as a diagnostic antigen in cysticercosis, probably because it only detected a single or limited numbers of monospecific antibodies among the diverse polyclonal antibodies produced in the patients with neurocysticercosis.

Different fragments of SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid (N) protein were expressed and purified, and a fluorescence immunochromatography method for detection of SARS-CoV-2 total antibody was established. The effect of different protein fragments on the performance of the method was evaluated. The N protein sequence was analyzed by bioinformatics technology, expressed in prokaryotic cell and purified by metal ion affinity chromatography column. Different N protein fragments were prepared for comparison. EDC reaction was used to label fluorescence microsphere on the synthesized antigen to construct sandwich fluorescence chromatography antibody detection assay, and the performance was systemically evaluated. Among the 4 prepared N protein fragments, the full-length N protein (N419) was selected as the optimized coating antigen, N412 with 0.5 mol/L NaCl was used as the optimal combination; deleting 91-120 amino acids from the N-terminal of N412 reduced non-specific signal by 87.5%. the linear range of detection was 0.312-80 U/L, the limit of detection was 0.165 U/L, and the accuracy was more than 95%. A fluorescence immunochromatographic detection method for analysis of SARS-CoV-2 total antibody was established by pairing N protein fragments. The detection result achieved 98% concordance with the commercially available Guangzhou Wanfu test strip, which is expected to be used as a supplementary approach for detection of SARS-CoV-2. The assay could also provide experimental reference for improving the performance of COVID-19 antibody detection reagents.

OBJECTIVETo identify the self-preparation monoclonal antibody which target to clenbuterol, and set up the standard curve to clenbuterol (CL) detection.
METHODSThe affinity constants and activity of the monoclonal antibody which target to CL were determined by ELISA. ELISA was also used to confirm whether the monoclonal antibody had any across-reaction with BSA and CL analogues. The rat ascites which contains the monoclonal antibody target to CL was purified by (NH4)2SO4 salt-out method and further by affinity column. At last, the CL detection standard curve which based on indirect competition ELISA was established.
RESULTSThe ELISA experiment showed that the antibody titer was 10(6) and the monoclonal antibody affinity constants was 2.90 x 10(10) L/mol. The result of the indirect competition ELISA confirmed that the monoclonal antibody had no cross-reaction with BSA and a few kind of CL analogue. CL detection standard curve based on indirect competition ELISA was established, which R2 was 0.9812, and the lowest detectable limit was 1.0 ng/ml.
CONCLUSIONThe standard curve based on indirectly competitioning ELISA was established. The self-preparation monoclonal antibody which target to CL has high affinity and high specific to CL, which had established the foundation to the advanced development of the CL immune test paper and CL ELISA kit.

OBJECTIVEScreening and characterizing high affinity completely humanized single-chain antibody (ScFv) against PreS1 of hepatitis B virus.
METHODSA combinatorial library of phage-displayed human ScFv, genes of which were derived from peripheral blood lymphocytes immunized by PreS1 of Hepatitis B Virus in vitro, was constructed. The library contained 7 10(8) clones.
RESULTSAfter 3 rounds panning, a high affinity (K=10(7) to 10(8) mol/L) ScFv specific to PreS1 was obtained. The V(H) belonged to human V(H4) family, and V(1) to V(4) by sequence analysis.
CONCLUSIONThis study suggests that the method of antigen stimulation in vitro is an expeditious way for the source of human immune antibody. And the ScFv may provide a more satisfactory therapy.

Oxidized low density lipoprotein (LDL) seems to take a part in atherogenesis through direct interactions with macrophages, endothelial cells, and smooth muscle cells, and is thought to participate in renal glomerular injury. For the purpose of illustrating the role of oxidized LDL in the human diseases, monoclonal antibodies were developed and characterized, recognizing oxidized LDL-specific epitopes that do not exist on native LDL. LDL was oxidized by the incubation with CuSO4, and used as immunogen. Splenocytes from the immunized mouse and mouse myeloma cells were fused to produce hybridomas, which were screened for the secretion of oxidized LDL-specific antibodies. Immunoblot analysis and binding affinity assay showed that these monoclonal antibodies recognize malondialdehyde-conjugated peptide epitopes.

OBJECTIVESTo obtain a single-chain antibody with high affinity against hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
METHODSA second single-chain antibody mutant library was established using an error-prone PCR and a phage display. Single-chain antibodies with high affinity for hepatocellular carcinoma were selected using ELISA.
RESULTSThe content of the second single-chain antibody mutant library was about 4.5 x 10(7). Two selected mutants, M90 and M116, were obtained after 3 rounds of panning and ELISA. Immunoassay showed that both M90 and M116 could bind to human HCC cells. The relative affinity of M90 was 1.7-fold higher than that of the original antibody, and M116 was 2-fold higher than that of the original antibody.
CONCLUSIONError-prone PCR is an effective and simple method for affinity maturation of antibodies isolated from a phage antibody library.

OBJECTIVETo produce anti-19-Nortestosterone (NT) monoclonal antibodies and identify their immunological characteristics.
METHODSHybridomas were prepared by fusing NS0 mouse myeloma cells with splenocytes isolated from immunized BALB/c mice. Noncompetitive and competitive indirect ELISA were employed to screen positive cell clones. A caprylic acid ammonium sulphate (CAAP) method was used to purify NT mAb, and the Batty saturation method was used to determine the affinity constant (Kaff).
RESULTSFive hybridoma cell lines, named NT-1, NT-2, NT-3, NT-4, and NT-5, were identified and their corresponding mAbs were of the IgG(1) isotype with a k light chain. The Kaffs of all mAbs were between 2.6 and 4.7 × 10(9) L/mol. The titers and IC(50) values of purified ascite fluids were in the range of (0.64-2.56) × 10(5) and (0.55-1.0) ng/mL, respectively. Of all the cross-reacting steroids, (-NT was the most reactive with the mAbs at 62% with NT-1 mAb and 64% with NT-2 mAb. Negligible cross-reactivity (<0.01%) with other steroids was observed.
CONCLUSIONThe establishment of these hybridomas allows the potential development of a rapid test kit, and may provide an alternative method for the detection of NT residues in food producing animals.
