EIA TECHNOLOGY FOR THE DETECTION OF THE ANTIBIOTIC CHLORAMPHENICOL (CAP) IN SHRIMPS
EIA: ENZYME IMMUNOASSAY EIA is a rapid test used for detecting and quantifying a large variety of biological components, e.g. viruses, bacteria, hormones, antibiotics, allergens, etc.
EIAs are divided into 3 main formats: • Direct EIAs • Indirect EIAs • Blocking or competitive EIAs EIA FORMATS The CAP-EIA is a competitive assay!
REAGENTS IN THE CAP-EIA • A 96-wells polystyrene microtitre plate • coated with sheep anti-rabbit antibodies • Rabbit anti-CAP antibodies • Conjugate: labeled CAP (CAP-PO) • CAP-standards, negative controls • Sample material (not in the kit!)
MICROTITRE-PLATE IN THE CAP-EIA The wells of the microtitre plate are coated with sheep anti-rabbit (SAR) antibodies. The function of these antibodies is to capture the rabbit anti-CAP antibodies.
IMMUNISATION OF RABBIT CAP COUPLING OF CAPTO A CARRIER PROTEIN ANTIBODIES ARE PURIFIED AND USED IN THE CAP-EIA RABBIT PRODUCES ANTI-CAP ANTIBODIES ANTI-CAP ANTIBODIES IN THE EIA HAVE BEEN RAISED IN RABBITS
+ CAP PO CAP-PO (CONJUGATE) CONJUGATE IN THE CAP-EIA THE CONJUGATE IN THE CAP-EIA CONSISTS OF CAP THAT HAS BEEN LABELED WITH THE ENZYME HORSE-RADISH PEROXIDASE (PO)

RABBIT ANTI CAP ANTIBODIES C CONJUGATE B STANDARDS, SAMPLES, NEG. CONTROLS A SHEEP ANTI-RABBIT ANTIBODIES REACTION WELL STEPS IN THE CAP-EIA 1. THE SEVERAL REAGENTS ARE ADDED IN ORDER A, B, C
STEPS IN THE CAP-EIA 2. THE PLATE IS INCUBATED FOR 60 MIN AT 4˚C 3. THE WELLS ARE THEN WASHED WITH WASHING BUFFER • TWO SITUATIONS CAN NOW BE CONSIDERED: • THE SAMPLE CONTAINS A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF CAP • THE SAMPLE CONTAINS NO CAP
STEPS IN THE CAP-EIA SAMPLE WITH CAP: SAMPLE WITHOUT CAP: CONJUGATE AS WELL ASFREE CAP CAN BIND TO THE ANTI-CAP ANTIBODIES ONLY THE CONJUGATE IS AVAILABLE TO BIND TO THE ANTI-CAP ANTIBODIES
STEPS IN THE CAP-EIA 4. THE ENZYME SUBSTRATE/CHROMOGEN (H2O2/TMB) IS ADDED DURING INCUBATION THE COLORLESS CHROMOGEN IS CONVERTED BY THE ENZYME INTO A BLUE REACTION PRODUCT. TMB/H2O2 5. THE PLATE IS INCUBATED FOR 30 MIN AT 25˚C
STEPS IN THE CAP-EIA THE BLUE COLOR IS INVERSELY PROPORTIONAL TO THE AMOUNT OF BOUND CAP. THE MORE CAP PRESENT IN THE SAMPLE, THE LESS COLOR IS DEVELOPED. H2O2/TMB
STEPS IN THE CAP-EIA 6. THE COLOR DEVELOPMENT IS STOPPED BY ADDING 0.5 M OF SULFURIC ACID (H2SO4) IN THIS ACIDIC ENVIRONMENT THE BLUE COLOR CHANGES INTO YELLOW
READING THE RESULTS 7. ABSORPTION OF EACH WELL IS MEASURED AT 450 nm 8. AMOUNT OF CAP IN THE SAMPLES IS CALCULATED
