ABSTRACT
In this study, AmpC ß-lactamase of Escherichia coli was expressed, and its intermolecular interaction mechanisms with 15 cephalosporins (CPs) were studied by using a molecular docking technique. Results showed that this enzyme mainly interacted with the ß-lactam ring of these CPs, and the key contacting amino acids were Ser80 and Ser228. The AmpC ß-lactamase was combined with 5 horseradish peroxidase-labeled conjugates to develop a direct competitive array on a microplate for determination of 15 drugs in milk. Due to the use of principal component analysis method to analyze the data, this method could discriminate the 15 drugs at the concentration as low as 10 ng/mL. The detection results for the unknown milk samples were consistent with those obtained by the liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry method. As a general comparison, this method is better than the previous antibody-based and receptor-based detection methods for CPs. This is the first paper reporting a competitive array for discriminative determination of a class of small-molecule substances.
