Studies on purification of methamidophos monoclonal antibodies and comparative immunoactivity of purified antibodies / 生物医学与环境科学（英文）

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To purify Methamidophos (Met) monoclonal antibodies with two methods and compare immune activity of purified antibodies.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>Caprylic acid ammonium sulphate precipition (CAASP) method and Sepharose protein-A (SPA) affinity chromatography method were used to purify Met monoclonal antibodies, UV spectrum scanning was used to determine protein content and recovery of purified antibodies, sodium dodecylsulphate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) was used to analyze the purity of purified antibodies, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to determine immune activity of purified antibodies.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Antibody protein content and recovery rate with CAASP method were 7.62 mg/mL and 8.05% respectively, antibody protein content and recovery rate with SPA method were 6.45 mg/mL and 5.52% respectively. Purity of antibodies purified by SPA method was higher than that by CAASP method. The half-maximal inhibition concentration (IC50) of antibodies purified by SPA to Met was 181.26 microg/mL, and the linear working range and the limit of quantification (LOD) were 2.43-3896.01 microg/mL and 1.03 microg/mL, respectively. The IC50 of antibodies purified by CAASP to Met was 352.82 microg/mL, and the linear working range and LOD were 10.91-11412.29 microg/mL and 3.42 microg/mL, respectively.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Antibodies purified by SPA method are better than those by CAASP method, and Met monoclonal antibodies purified by SPA method can be used to prepare gold-labelled testing paper for analyzing Met residue in vegetable and drink water.</p>

Utilization of sugar cane bagasse hydrolysates for xylitol production by yeast / 生物工程学报

The effects of the concentration of sulfuric acid and the ratio of liquid to solid on xylose yield from sugar cane bagasse in its hemicellulose hydrolysis process were studied with the Quadratic Rotary Combination Design. Regression analysis showed that there was a marked regression relationship between the two factors and xylose yield. As the result of optimizing the hydrolysis conditions by regression equation, xylose yield of 24 g/100 g sugar cane bagasse was obtained when sulfuric acid concentration was 2.4 g/L and liquid to solid ratio was 6.2 under the conditions of stream pressure of 2.5 x 10(4) Pa and hydrolysis time of 2.5 h. The macroporous resin adsorption was proved to be a good method to reduce the concentration of yeast cell growth inhibitor in sugar cane bagasse hemicellulose hydrolysate and to enhance the hydrolysate fermentability. The hydrolysate treated with macroporous resin adsorption under pH2 was used as the substrate for xylitol production by a xylitol-producting yeast, Candida tropicalis AS2.1776. At an initial xylose concentration of 200 g/L, all xylose was consumed within 110 h with a xylitol production rate of 1.15 g/L.h, and a xylitol yield of 0.64 g/g xylose.
