RESUMO
Glycinin is an important storage protein in soybean, but it can also lead to allergic reactions in humans. In this study, based on a low-cost, simple, rapid and portable lateral flow immunoassay test strip, combined with high sensitivity surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) technology, a sandwich lateral flow immunochromatographic test strip for rapid detection of soybean allergen glycinin is established. In the experiment, colloidal gold was covalently conjugated with rabbit-derived polyclonal antibodies of glycinin and Raman probe molecule 4-aminothiophenol(4-PATP) to prepare the immunoprobe. The respective optimal PATP and optimal antibody labeling amounts of colloidal gold solution were 1.05 × 10-2mol/L and 4.6 × 10-8mol/L. The detection limit of the test strip for glycinin was 4.87 ng/mL. The recovery rate ranged from 91 to 107 % and the CV was between 3 and 10 %. The test strip underwent no cross-reaction with ß-conglycinin, sesame protein, peanut protein, wheat protein or whey protein. The results of the experiment showed that this method exhibits high sensitivity and specificity.
